How to Deploy All Stacks in AWS CDK

AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) is a powerful tool that allows developers to define their infrastructure as code. This means that you can use your favorite programming language to deploy and manage your resources on AWS. In this article, we'll show you how to deploy all stacks in AWS CDK.

Step 1: Install AWS CDK

The first step is to install the AWS CDK. You can do this by running the following command:

npm install -g aws-cdk

Step 2: Create a new CDK project

Once you have the AWS CDK installed, you can create a new project by running the following command:

cdk init --language [language]

Where [language] is the programming language you want to use for your project. For example, if you want to use TypeScript, you would run:

cdk init --language typescript

Step 3: Define your stacks

Once you have your project set up, you can define your stacks. A stack is a collection of AWS resources that are created and managed together. You can define your stacks in the lib/stacks.ts file. For example, the following defines a MyS3Stack and MySNSStack.

import * as cdk from 'aws-cdk-lib';
import * as s3 from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-s3';

export class MyS3Stack extends cdk.Stack {
    constructor(scope: cdk.App, id: string, props?: cdk.StackProps) {
        super(scope, id, props);

        new s3.Bucket(this, 'MyBucket', {
            bucketName: 'my-bucket'
        });
    }
}


import * as cdk from 'aws-cdk-lib';
import * as sns from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-sns';

export class MySNSStack extends cdk.Stack {
    constructor(scope: cdk.App, id: string, props?: cdk.StackProps) {
        super(scope, id, props);

        new sns.Topic(this, 'MyTopic', {
            topicName: 'my-topic'
        });
    }
}

Step 4: Deploy your stacks

Once you have defined your stacks, you can deploy them by running the following command to deploy a single stack:

cdk deploy [stack-name]

Where [stack-name] is the name of the stack you want to deploy. For example, if you want to deploy the stack defined in the previous step, you would run the:

cdk deploy MyS3Stack

Or

cdk deploy MySNSStack

You can deploy multiple stacks at once by specifying multiple stack names.

cdk deploy MyS3Stack MySNSStack

Or

cdk deploy --all

Or

cdk deploy "*"

Conclusion

AWS CDK is a powerful tool that allows you to define your infrastructure as code. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can deploy all stacks in AWS CDK. This makes it easy to manage and automate your AWS resources, saving you time and reducing the risk of errors.

Please note that in this article I am providing you the basic and general steps to deploy all the stacks in AWS CDK, the implementation and details may vary based on your specific use case.
