Properties ​

defaultRouteTableITransitGatewayRouteTabledefault_route_tableITransitGatewayRouteTabledefaultRouteTableITransitGatewayRouteTableDefaultRouteTableITransitGatewayRouteTableDefaultRouteTableITransitGatewayRouteTablerequired#
The default route table associated with the Transit Gateway.

This route table is created by the CDK and is used to manage the routes for attachments that do not have an explicitly defined route table association.

defaultRouteTableAssociationbooleandefault_route_table_associationbooldefaultRouteTableAssociationBooleanDefaultRouteTableAssociationboolDefaultRouteTableAssociation*boolrequired#
Indicates whether new attachments are automatically associated with the default route table.

If set to true, any VPC or VPN attachment will be automatically associated with the default route table unless otherwise specified.

defaultRouteTablePropagationbooleandefault_route_table_propagationbooldefaultRouteTablePropagationBooleanDefaultRouteTablePropagationboolDefaultRouteTablePropagation*boolrequired#
Indicates whether route propagation to the default route table is enabled.

When set to true, routes from attachments will be automatically propagated to the default route table unless propagation is explicitly disabled.

dnsSupportbooleandns_supportbooldnsSupportBooleanDnsSupportboolDnsSupport*boolrequired#
Whether or not DNS support is enabled on the Transit Gateway.
The environment this resource belongs to.
notes

For resources that are created and managed in a Stack (those created by creating new class instances like new Role(), new Bucket(), etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to.

For referenced resources (those obtained from referencing methods like Role.fromRoleArn(), Bucket.fromBucketName(), etc.), they might be different than the stack they were imported into.

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Transit Gateway.

The ARN uniquely identifies the Transit Gateway across AWS and is commonly used for permissions and resource tracking.

The unique identifier of the Transit Gateway.

This ID is automatically assigned by AWS upon creation of the Transit Gateway and is used to reference it in various configurations and operations.

Methods ​

addRouteTable(id: string): ITransitGatewayRouteTabledef add_route_table(self, id: str) -> ITransitGatewayRouteTablepublic ITransitGatewayRouteTable addRouteTable(String id)public ITransitGatewayRouteTable AddRouteTable(string id)func AddRouteTable(Id *string) ITransitGatewayRouteTable#
Adds a new route table to the Transit Gateway.
returns

Returns: The created Transit Gateway route table.

applyCrossStackReferenceStrength(strength: ReferenceStrength): voiddef apply_cross_stack_reference_strength(self, strength: ReferenceStrength) -> Nonepublic void applyCrossStackReferenceStrength(ReferenceStrength strength)public void ApplyCrossStackReferenceStrength(ReferenceStrength strength)func ApplyCrossStackReferenceStrength(Strength ReferenceStrength)#
Override the cross-stack reference strength for this resource.
notes · 1 parameter

When set, any cross-stack reference to this resource will use the specified mechanism instead of the global default determined by the @aws-cdk/core:defaultCrossStackReferences context key. This is useful for selectively weakening specific references to avoid the "deadly embrace" problem without changing the app-wide default.

Parameters

  • strengthstrengthstrengthstrengthStrength — - The reference strength to use for this resource.
applyRemovalPolicy(policy: RemovalPolicy): voiddef apply_removal_policy(self, policy: RemovalPolicy) -> Nonepublic void applyRemovalPolicy(RemovalPolicy policy)public void ApplyRemovalPolicy(RemovalPolicy policy)func ApplyRemovalPolicy(Policy RemovalPolicy)#
Apply the given removal policy to this resource.
notes

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you've removed it from the CDK application or because you've made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN).

attachVpc(id: string, options: AttachVpcOptions): ITransitGatewayVpcAttachmentdef attach_vpc(self, id: str, options: AttachVpcOptions) -> ITransitGatewayVpcAttachmentpublic ITransitGatewayVpcAttachment attachVpc(String id, AttachVpcOptions options)public ITransitGatewayVpcAttachment AttachVpc(string id, AttachVpcOptions options)func AttachVpc(Id *string, Options AttachVpcOptions) ITransitGatewayVpcAttachment#
Attaches a VPC to the Transit Gateway.
returns

Returns: The created Transit Gateway VPC attachment.

isConstruct(x: any): boolean@staticmethod def is_construct(x: Any) -> boolpublic static Boolean isConstruct(Object x)public static bool IsConstruct(object x)func IsConstruct(X interface{}) *boolstatic#
Checks if `x` is a construct.
notes · 1 parameter · returns

Use this method instead of instanceof to properly detect Construct instances, even when the construct library is symlinked.

Explanation: in JavaScript, multiple copies of the constructs library on disk are seen as independent, completely different libraries. As a consequence, the class Construct in each copy of the constructs library is seen as a different class, and an instance of one class will not test as instanceof the other class. npm install will not create installations like this, but users may manually symlink construct libraries together or use a monorepo tool: in those cases, multiple copies of the constructs library can be accidentally installed, and instanceof will behave unpredictably. It is safest to avoid using instanceof, and using this type-testing method instead.

Parameters

  • xxxxX — Any object.

Returns: true if x is an object created from a class which extends Construct.

isOwnedResource(construct: IConstruct): boolean@staticmethod def is_owned_resource(construct: IConstruct) -> boolpublic static Boolean isOwnedResource(IConstruct construct)public static bool IsOwnedResource(IConstruct construct)func IsOwnedResource(Construct IConstruct) *boolstatic#
Returns true if the construct was created by CDK, and false otherwise.
isResource(construct: IConstruct): boolean@staticmethod def is_resource(construct: IConstruct) -> boolpublic static Boolean isResource(IConstruct construct)public static bool IsResource(IConstruct construct)func IsResource(Construct IConstruct) *boolstatic#
Check whether the given construct is a Resource.
toString(): stringdef to_string(self, ) -> strpublic String toString()public string ToString()func ToString() *string#
Returns a string representation of this construct.
with(...mixins: IMixin[]): IConstructdef with(self, mixins: IMixin) -> IConstructpublic IConstruct with(IMixin mixins)public IConstruct With(IMixin mixins)func With(Mixins IMixin) IConstruct#
Applies one or more mixins to this construct.

Mixins are applied in order. The list of constructs is captured at the start of the call, so constructs added by a mixin will not be visited. Use multiple with() calls if subsequent mixins should apply to added constructs.
