Pseudo parameters
These are static properties of cloudfriend that you can use to reference various CloudFormation objects.
| CloudFriend | CloudFormation |
|---|---|
| accountId | AWS::AccountId |
| notificationArns | AWS::NotificationARNs |
| noValue | AWS::NoValue |
| region | AWS::Region |
| stackId | AWS::StackId |
| stackName | AWS::StackName |
| partition | AWS::Partition |
| urlSuffix | AWS::URLSuffix |
Other helpers
| method | description |
|---|---|
| build(file, opts) | Builds a template defined by a static JavaScript export, a synchronous or an asynchronous function. |
| merge(...template) | Merges templates together. Throws errors if logical names are reused. Transform macros from all template arguments are merged into a single array, in order of their appearance in the template arguments, and an error is thrown if any macro is repeated. |
CLI tools
By installing cloudfriend globally, it can provide you with simple CLI tools for building and validating CloudFormation templates.
# either...
$ git clone https://github.com/mapbox/cloudfriend && cd cloudfriend && npm link
# ... or ...
$ npm install -g @mapbox/cloudfriendThen, to build a template:
# Prints the template as JSON to stdout
$ build-template path/to/template.js
