TopicBase

class aws_cdk.aws_sns.TopicBase(scope, id, *, account=None, environment_from_arn=None, physical_name=None, region=None)

Bases: Resource

Either a new or imported Topic.

Parameters:
  • scope (Construct) –

  • id (str) –

  • account (Optional[str]) – The AWS account ID this resource belongs to. Default: - the resource is in the same account as the stack it belongs to

  • environment_from_arn (Optional[str]) – ARN to deduce region and account from. The ARN is parsed and the account and region are taken from the ARN. This should be used for imported resources. Cannot be supplied together with either account or region. Default: - take environment from account, region parameters, or use Stack environment.

  • physical_name (Optional[str]) – The value passed in by users to the physical name prop of the resource. - undefined implies that a physical name will be allocated by CloudFormation during deployment. - a concrete value implies a specific physical name - PhysicalName.GENERATE_IF_NEEDED is a marker that indicates that a physical will only be generated by the CDK if it is needed for cross-environment references. Otherwise, it will be allocated by CloudFormation. Default: - The physical name will be allocated by CloudFormation at deployment time

  • region (Optional[str]) – The AWS region this resource belongs to. Default: - the resource is in the same region as the stack it belongs to

Methods

add_subscription(topic_subscription)

Subscribe some endpoint to this topic.

Parameters:

topic_subscription (ITopicSubscription) –

Return type:

Subscription

add_to_resource_policy(statement)

Adds a statement to the IAM resource policy associated with this topic.

If this topic was created in this stack (new Topic), a topic policy will be automatically created upon the first call to addToResourcePolicy. If the topic is imported (Topic.import), then this is a no-op.

Parameters:

statement (PolicyStatement) –

Return type:

AddToResourcePolicyResult

apply_removal_policy(policy)

Apply the given removal policy to this resource.

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).

Parameters:

policy (RemovalPolicy) –

Return type:

None

bind_as_notification_rule_target(_scope)

Represents a notification target That allows SNS topic to associate with this rule target.

Parameters:

_scope (Construct) –

Return type:

NotificationRuleTargetConfig

grant_publish(grantee)

Grant topic publishing permissions to the given identity.

Parameters:

grantee (IGrantable) –

Return type:

Grant

grant_subscribe(grantee)

Grant topic subscribing permissions to the given identity.

Parameters:

grantee (IGrantable) –

Return type:

  • color (Optional[str]) – The hex color code, prefixed with ‘#’ (e.g. ‘#00ff00’), to use when this metric is rendered on a graph. The Color class has a set of standard colors that can be used here. Default: - Automatic color

  • dimensions_map (Optional[Mapping[str, str]]) – Dimensions of the metric. Default: - No dimensions.

  • label (Optional[str]) – Label for this metric when added to a Graph in a Dashboard. You can use dynamic labels to show summary information about the entire displayed time series in the legend. For example, if you use:: [max: ${MAX}] MyMetric As the metric label, the maximum value in the visible range will be shown next to the time series name in the graph’s legend. Default: - No label

Attributes

content_based_deduplication

Enables content-based deduplication for FIFO topics.

env

The environment this resource belongs to.

For resources that are created and managed by the CDK (generally, those created by creating new class instances like Role, Bucket, etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to; however, for imported resources (those obtained from static methods like fromRoleArn, fromBucketName, etc.), that might be different than the stack they were imported into.

fifo

Whether this topic is an Amazon SNS FIFO queue.

If false, this is a standard topic.

node

The tree node.

stack

The stack in which this resource is defined.

topic_arn

The ARN of the topic.

topic_name

The name of the topic.

Static Methods

classmethod is_construct(x)

Checks if x is a construct.

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:

x (Any) – Any object.

Return type:

bool

Returns:

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

classmethod is_owned_resource(construct)

Returns true if the construct was created by CDK, and false otherwise.

Parameters:

construct (IConstruct) –

Return type:

bool

classmethod is_resource(construct)

Check whether the given construct is a Resource.

Parameters:

construct (IConstruct) –

Return type:

bool
