💥 cf-merge

cf-merge brings import syntax to CloudFormation templates. Split up and modularize your stacks!

Example

Use top-level imports to merge in other templates:

# @import ./networking.yml
# @import ./security.yml

AWSTemplateFormatVersion: 2010-09-09
Parameters:
    - foo
Resources:
    - bar

Use inline imports to merge in sections of other templates:

AWSTemplateFormatVersion: 2010-09-09
Parameters:
    - foo
    # @import ./ec2_instances.yml#Parameters
Resources:
    - bar
    # @import ./ec2_instances.yml#Resources

See the tests to see examples of this in action.

Usage

cf-merge is distributed as a nodejs package. You can install it via npm or yarn:

yarn add @magicmark/cf-merge

You can then call cf-merge in your bash script when calling aws cloudformation deploy:

aws cloudformation deploy \
  --region $REGION \
  --profile $CLI_PROFILE \
  --stack-name $STACK_NAME \
  --template-file "$(yarn cf-merge main.yml --tmpfile)" \
