Humidifier allows you to build AWS CloudFormation templates programmatically. Stacks and resources are represented as C# objects with accessors for all their supported properties.
The code is automatically generated by parsing the official Cloudformation specification.
To get up and running with Humidifier quickly, we've included a production ready template for deploying and managing your AWS Cloudformation/Serverless projects. The template is installed using the dotnet new
cli command. Your can view the code here.
Features:
Step 1: Install the template
dotnet new -i Humidifier.Templates::*
This will download the template from https://www.nuget.org/packages/Humidifier.Templates and install it into the dotnet cli template cache.
Step 2: Check to see the template is installed
You should see output similar to this:
Templates Short Name Language Tags Humidifier Solution Template humidifier.sln [C#] AWS/Lambda/Serverless Console Application console [C#], F#, VB Common/Console Class library classlib [C#], F#, VB Common/Library Unit Test Project mstest [C#], F#, VB Test/MSTest xUnit Test Project xunit [C#], F#, VB Test/xUnit global.json file globaljson Config NuGet Config nugetconfig Config Web Config webconfig Config Solution File sln SolutionStep 3: Create your project
dotnet new humidifier.sln --name Example --output Example --env test --region us-west-2 --stack example --profile default
This will generate the solution in the --output
folder. The --profile
flag is your AWS credential profile. To setup a AWS profile, follow the docs on how to configure the AWS Cli here.
Step 3: Read the generated README.
The template generates a README that has a quickstart with all the commands for building, testing, deploying and destroying your stacks. If your reading this on Github, browse to the template README to see what's included.
Nuget:
dotnet add package Humidifier dotnet add package Humidifier.Json
Stacks are represented by the Humidifier.Stack class. Resources are represented by an exact mapping from AWS resource names to Humidifier resources names (e.g. AWS::EC2::Instance becomes Humidifier.EC2.Instance). Resources have properties for each JSON attribute.
There's also a demo application which creates a template and writes it out to a file using JSON.
using System.Collections.Generic; using System.IO; using Humidifier.Json; namespace Humidifier.ConsoleTest { public static class Program { public static void Main(string[] args) { Stack stack = BuildStack(); var serializer = new JsonStackSerializer(); var template = serializer.Serialize(stack); File.WriteAllText("cloudformation.template", template); } private static Stack BuildStack() { var stack = new Stack { AWSTemplateFormatVersion = "2010-09-09", Description = "Description" }; stack.Add("Environment", new Parameter { Type = "String", Description = "Deployment environment", MinLength = 3, MaxLength = 4, AllowedValues = new List<string> { "test", "uat", "prod" }, ConstraintDescription = "Allowed values: [test, uat, prod]" }); stack.Add("AutomationStack", new Parameter { Type = "String", Description = "Automation stack name", MinLength = 1, MaxLength = 255, AllowedPattern = "^[a-zA-Z][-a-zA-Z0-9]*$", ConstraintDescription = "Must be a valid Cloudformation Stack name" }); stack.Add("CodeS3Key", new Parameter { Type = "String", MinLength = 3 }); stack.Add("VPC", new EC2.VPC { CidrBlock = "10.0.0.0/16", EnableDnsSupport = false, EnableDnsHostnames = false, InstanceTenancy = "dedicated", Tags = new List<Tag> { new Tag { Key = "foo", Value = "bar" } } }); stack.Add("Subnet", new EC2.Subnet { VpcId = Fn.Ref("VPC"), CidrBlock = "10.0.0.0/24", AvailabilityZone = Fn.Select("0", Fn.GetAZs(Fn.Ref("AWS::Region"))) }); stack.Add("Ec2Instance", new EC2.Instance { ImageId = Fn.FindInMap("RegionMap", Fn.Ref("AWS::Region"), "64"), InstanceType = "m1.small", UserData = Fn.Base64( @"#!/bin/bash -e wget https://opscode-omnibus-packages.s3.amazonaws.com/ubuntu/12.04/x86_64/chef_11.6.2-1.ubuntu.12.04_amd64.deb dpkg -i chef_11.6.2-1.ubuntu.12.04_amd64.deb" ) }); stack.Add("AutomationServiceRole", new IAM.Role { AssumeRolePolicyDocument = new PolicyDocument { Statement = new List<Statement> { new Statement { Effect = "Allow", Principal = new { Service = "cloudformation.amazonaws.com" }, Action = "sts:AssumeRole" } } } }); stack.Add("DeploymentBucket", new S3.Bucket { BucketName = Fn.Ref("AWS::StackName") }); stack.Add("DeploymentBucketPolicy", new S3.BucketPolicy { Bucket = Fn.Ref("DeploymentBucket"), PolicyDocument = new PolicyDocument { Version = "2012-10-17", Statement = new List<Statement> { new Statement { Effect = "Allow", Principal = new { AWS = Fn.GetAtt("AutomationServiceRole", IAM.Role.Attributes.Arn) }, Action = "s3:*", Resource = new[] { Fn.Join("", "arn:aws:s3:::", Fn.Ref("DeploymentBucket")), Fn.Join("", "arn:aws:s3:::", Fn.Ref("DeploymentBucket"), "/*") } } } } }); stack.Add("LambdaFunction", new Lambda.Function { Timeout = 30, FunctionName = new { Ref = "AWS::StackName" }, Runtime = "dotnetcore1.0", Description = "", Handler = "SomeProject::SomeProject.SomeFunction::FunctionHandler", MemorySize = 256, Code = new Code { S3Bucket = Fn.ImportValue(Fn.Sub("${AutomationStack}-DeploymentBucket")), S3Key = new { Ref = "CodeS3Key" }, }, Environment = new Environment { Variables = new Dictionary<string, dynamic> { ["EnvironmentName"] = Fn.Ref("Environment") } }, }); stack.Add("MonitoringSnsTopic", new SNS.Topic { DisplayName = Fn.Ref("AWS::StackName"), Subscription = new List<SNS.Subscription> { new SNS.Subscription { Endpoint = "team@example.com", Protocol = "email" } } }); stack.Add("KmsKey", new KMS.Key { Description = "A Key", KeyPolicy = new PolicyDocument { Id = "key-default-1", Version = "2012-10-17", Statement = new List<Statement> { new Statement { Sid = "Allow the administration of the key", Effect = "Allows", Principal = new {AWS = "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/Alice"}, Action = new[] { "kms:Create*", "kms:Describe*", "kms:Enable*", "kms:List*", "kms:Put*", "kms:Update*", "kms:Revoke*", "kms:Disable*", "kms:Get*", "kms:Delete*", "kms:ScheduleKeyDeletion", "kms:CancelKeyDeletion" }, Resource = "*" } } } }); var regionMap = new Mapping { ["us-east-1"] = new Dictionary<string, string> { ["32"] = "ami-6411e20d", ["64"] = "ami-7a11e213" }, ["us-west-1"] = new Dictionary<string, string> { ["32"] = "ami-c9c7978c", ["64"] = "ami-cfc7978a" }, ["ue-west-1"] = new Dictionary<string, string> { ["32"] = "ami-37c2f643", ["64"] = "ami-31c2f645" }, ["ap-southeast-1"] = new Dictionary<string, string> { ["32"] = "ami-66f28c34", ["64"] = "ami-60f28c32" }, ["ap-northeast-1"] = new Dictionary<string, string> { ["32"] = "ami-9c03a89d", ["64"] = "ami-a003a8a1" } }; stack.Mappings.Add("RegionMap", regionMap); return stack; } } }
You can use CFN intrinsic functions and references using Fn.[name]. Those will build appropriate structures that know how to be dumped to CFN syntax appropriately.
Fn.FindInMap("RegionMap", Fn.Ref("AWS::Region"), "64");
Fn.GetAtt("MyElb", ElasticLoadBalancing.LoadBalancer.Attributes.DNSName);
Fn.ImportValue(Fn.Sub("${NetworkStackNameParameter}-SubnetID"));
Fn.Join("", "arn:aws:s3:::", Fn.Ref("DeployBucket"), "/*");
Fn.Select("1", new[] { "a", "b", "c" });
Fn.Sub("${AWS::StackName}-${AWS::Region}-bucket");
Fn.Select("1", Fn.Split("|", "a|b|c"));
NOTE: Because JSON doesn't allow newlines, there's a known hack where you can join multiple lines together using Fn::Join
Fn.Base64(Fn.Join("", "#!/bin/bash -e\n", "wget https://opscode-omnibus-packages.s3.amazonaws.com/ubuntu/12.04/x86_64/chef_11.6.2-1.ubuntu.12.04_amd64.deb\n", "dpkg -i chef_11.6.2-1.ubuntu.12.04_amd64.deb\n" ));
But that's gross and unreadable when outputted as JSON. Instead use a multiline C# string, and let the library take care of encoding it for you:
\r\n
automatically by NewtonSoft.Json.Fn.Base64( @"#!/bin/bash -e wget https://opscode-omnibus-packages.s3.amazonaws.com/ubuntu/12.04/x86_64/chef_11.6.2-1.ubuntu.12.04_amd64.deb dpkg -i chef_11.6.2-1.ubuntu.12.04_amd64.deb" );
stack.Add("CreateProdResources", new Condition(Fn.Equals(Fn.Ref("Environment"), "prod")));
stack.Add("CreateDevResources", new Condition(Fn.Equals(Fn.Ref("Environment"), "dev")));
stack.Add("NotCondition", new Condition(Fn.Not(Fn.Equals(Fn.Ref("Environment"), "prod"))));
stack.Add("AndCondition", new Condition( Fn.And( Fn.Equals("sg-mysqgroup", Fn.Ref("SecurityGroup")), new { Condition = "NotCondition" } ) ) );
stack.Add("OrCondition", new Condition( Fn.Or( Fn.Equals("sg-mysqgroup", Fn.Ref("SecurityGroup")), new { Condition = "NotCondition" } ) ) );
To specify a condition on a resource use the overload to stack.Add
and pass in the condition
parameter.
stack.Add("Volume", new EC2.Volume { Size = 100, AvailabilityZone = Fn.GetAtt("Ec2Instance", EC2.Instance.Attributes.AvailabilityZone) }, condition: "CreateProdResources");
