Aligent AWS Static Hosting

Overview

TypeScript version AWS CDK version NPM version

This repository defines a CDK construct for hosting a static website on AWS using S3 and CloudFront.

It can be imported and used within CDK applications. By default this construct will create a CloudFront distribution with an S3 bucket as the origin. It will also create an IAM user and group that have permission to create files in the S3 bucket.

It has the following features that can optionally be enabled:

  • Create a DNS record in an existing hosted zone
  • Store CloudFront logs in an S3 bucket
  • Add a custom backend origin
  • Remap static files to the the S3 or backend origin

Usage and PrerenderFargateOptions

domainName(string)

  • Domain name for the stack. Combined with the subDomainName it is used as the name for the S3 origin and an alternative domain name for the CloudFront distribution

subDomainName(string)

  • Subdomain name for the stack. Combined with the domainName it is used as the name for the S3 origin and an alternative domain name for the CloudFront distribution

extraDistributionCnames (ReadonlyArray<string>)

  • An array of additional Cloudfront alternative domain names.

Default: undefined

certificateArn (string)

  • The arn of the certificate to attach to the CloudFront distribution. Must be created in us-east-1

backendHost (string)

  • Custom backend host to add as a second origin to the CloudFront distribution

Default: undefined

zoneName (string)

  • The hosted zone name to create a DNS record in. If not supplied a DNS record will not be created

Default: undefined

createPublisherGroup (boolean)

  • Whether to create a group with permissions to publish to the S3 bucket.

Default: true

createPublisherUser (boolean)

  • Whether to create a user with permissions to publish to the S3 bucket. The user will not have permissions unless the publisher group is also created

Default: true

enableCloudFrontAccessLogging (boolean)

  • Enable CloudFront access logs

Default: false

enableS3AccessLogging (boolean)

  • Enable S3 access logging

Default: false

enableErrorConfig (boolean)

  • Enable returning the errorResponsePagePath on a 404. Not required when using Prerender or Feature environment Lambda@Edge functions

Default: false

errorResponsePagePath (string)

  • Custom error response page path

Default: /index.html

enableStaticFileRemap (boolean)

  • Create behaviours for the following file extensions to route straight to the S3 origin:
    • js, css, json, svg, jpg, jpeg, png, gif, ico, woff, woff2, otf

Default: true

defaultBehaviourPrefixes (prefix: string), (behaviourOverride: Partial<BehaviorOptions>)

{
    prefix: string;
    behaviourOverride: Partial<BehaviorOptions>;
  }[]
  • Overrides default behaviour paths with a prefix and takes in behviour options to apply on the prefix behaviour

Default: true

staticFileRemapOptions (Partial<BehaviorOptions>)

  • Optional additional properties for static file remap behaviours

Default: none

remapPaths (remapPath[])

  • Paths to remap on the default behaviour. For example you might remap deployed_sitemap.xml -> sitemap.xml
  • Created a behaviour in CloudFront to handle the remap. If the paths are different it will also deploy a Lambda@Edge function to perform the required remap. The "to" path is optional, and the Lambda@Edge function will not be deployed if not provided.

Default: undefined

remapBackendPaths (remapPath[])

  • Functions the same as remapPaths but uses the backendHost as the origin.
  • Requires a valid backendHost to be configured

Default: undefined

defaultRootObject (string)

  • Override the default root object

Default: index.html

enforceSSL (boolean)

  • Enforce ssl on bucket requests

Default: true

disableCSP (boolean)

  • Disable the use of the CSP header

Default: false

csp (CSP)

  • Adds custom CSP directives and URLs to the header.
  • AWS limits the max header size to 1kb, this is too small for complex csp headers.
  • The main purpose of this csp header is to provide a method of setting a report-uri.

Default: undefined

explicitCSP (boolean)

  • This will generate a csp based purely on the provided csp object. Therefore disabling the automatic adding of common use-case properties.

Default: false

s3ExtendedProps (BucketProps)

  • Extend the default props for S3 bucket

Default: undefined

webAclArn (string)

  • Add an external WAF via an arn

Default: undefined

responseHeadersPolicies (ResponseHeaderMappings)

  • Add response headers policies to the default behaviour

Default: undefined

additionalBehaviors (Record<string, BehaviorOptions>)

  • Additional behaviours

Default: undefined

defaultBehaviorEdgeLambdas (EdgeLambda[])

  • Lambda@Edge functions to add to the default behaviour

Default: undefined

defaultBehaviorRequestPolicy (CachePolicy)

  • A request policy used on the default behavior

Default: undefined

defaultBehaviorCachePolicy (EdgeLambda[])

  • A cache policy used on the default behavior

Default: undefined

additionalDefaultOriginRequestHeaders (string[])

  • Additional headers to include in OriginRequestHeaderBehavior

additionalDefaultCacheKeyHeaders (string[])

  • Additional headers to include in CacheHeaderBehavior

overrideLogicalId (string)

  • After switching constructs, you need to maintain the same logical ID for the underlying CfnDistribution if you wish to avoid the deletion and recreation of your distribution.
  • To do this, use escape hatches to override the logical ID created by the new Distribution construct with the logical ID created by theold construct

See: Migrating from original cfnDistribution - AWS Docs

Default: undefined

exportPrefix (string)

  • A string to prefix CloudFormation outputs with

Default: undefined

exportPrefix (string)

  • Add a comment to the CloudFront distribution

Default: undefined

Example

The following CDK snippet can be used to provision a static hosting stack using this construct.

import 'source-map-support/register';
import * as cdk from '@aws-cdk/core';
import { StaticHosting, StaticHostingProps } from '@aligent/cdk-static-hosting'
import { Construct, Stack, StackProps } from '@aws-cdk/core';


const HostingStackProps : StaticHostingProps = {
    subDomainName: 'sub.domain',
    domainName: 'domain.tld',
    certificateArn: 'arn:aws:acm:us-east-1:123456789:certificate/some-arn-id',
    createDnsRecord: false,
    enableErrorConfig: true
};

class HostingStack extends Stack {
    constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props: StackProps) {
        super(scope, id, props);

        new StaticHosting(this, 'hosting-stack', HostingStackProps);
    }
}

const app = new cdk.App();

new HostingStack(app, 'hosting-stack', {
     env: {
          region: 'ap-southeast-2',
          account: 'account-id',
     }
});

Response Header Policies

You can initialize Response Headers Policies, map them and pass to the construct.

  1. Create a policy

    // Creating a custom response headers policy -- all parameters optional
    const reportUriPolicy = new ResponseHeadersPolicy(this, 'ReportUriPolicy', {
        responseHeadersPolicyName: 'ReportUriPolicy',
        comment: 'To enable CSP Reporting',
        customHeadersBehavior: {
            customHeaders: [
                { 
                    header: 'content-security-policy-report-only', 
                    value: `default-src 'none'; form-action 'none'; frame-ancestors 'none'; report-uri https://some-report-uri-domain.report-uri.com/r/t/csp/wizard`, 
                    override: true 
                },
            ],
        },
    });
  2. Attached policy to desired cache behavior or path

    const responseHeaders: ResponseHeaderMappings[] = [{
        header: reportUriPolicy,
        pathPatterns: ['/au*', '/nz*']
        attachToDefault: false
    }];

    If you should attached the policy to the Default Behavior, set attachToDefault: true

  3. Include the config as props

    new StaticHosting(this, 'pwa-stack', {...staticProps, ...{behaviors, customOriginConfigs, responseHeaders}});
