(aws-cdk): Roadmap or Timeline for AppRunner Support

[shellscape]

❓ General Issue

The Question

I'd like to raise the issue of App Runner support https://aws.amazon.com/apprunner/ in CDK. Terraform already has support for this, and I'd love to see it available in CDK. Is there a roadmap or timeline which has not been made public for adding support for this very cool AWS service?

Environment

• CDK CLI Version: n/a
• Module Version: n/a
• Node.js Version: n/a
• OS: all
• Language (Version): all

Hey @shellscape,

The CDK works by synthesizing code to a CloudFormation document. Since CloudFormation doesn't support AppRunner yet, this is out of our hands. I encourage you to take this issue to the CloudFormation Coverage Roadmap and submit a request there (on a quick glance I couldn't find any requests for it yet). Hope this helps!

Will do, thank you for the follow up. Out of curiosity, how far behind new CF features does CDK typically run?

Our L1 constructs are automatically generated by the Cfn Resource Spec. So whenever Cfn implements these we would lag behind by a week at most, depending on merging the new resource spec and when the new CDK version gets released

Outstanding. Thank you

Hi @peterwoodworth - this would be a great addition.

Seems that CFN already supports AppRunner - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-apprunner-service.html
:)
thanks a lot in advance!
