Useful commands

This is sample CDK application with a single stack.

Getting started

• Install AWS CDK using "npm install -g aws-cdk"
• Run "npm install" in repo root directory to install the packages
• Modify bucket_name and table_name in cdk.json to suitable names
• Run "npm run build" to compile the code (remember to do this whenever there is a code change! or use "npm run watch")
• Switch/fix the "default" AWS profile to be the profile you want to use (profile management is not quite working properly)
• Run "cdk bootstrap" to bootstrap the account for CDK usage
• Run "cdk deploy" to deploy the demo to some AWS account
• Run "cdk destroy" to delete the stack. This works even if the stack never was created properly in the first place.

• npm run build compile typescript to js
• npm run watch watch for changes and compile
• cdk deploy deploy this stack to your default AWS account/region
• cdk diff compare deployed stack with current state
• cdk synth emits the synthesized CloudFormation template
