[Enhancement]: New Resource aws_apprunner_start_deployment

[emoshaya]

Description

Due to a limitation where explained here.

When the secrets and parameter values are rotated or changed they are not automatically updated in your App Runner service. Redeploy your App Runner service as App Runner only pulls secrets and parameters during deployment.

We have a use case for manually starting the app runner deployment when an environment variable using aws secret manager/ssm parameter store is updated.

We would like a new resource aws_apprunner_start_deployment to start deployment and have it depend on changes in ssm paramter store / secret manager values

We are currently working around this issue by using the aws cli command: aws apprunner start-deployment

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/apprunner/start-deployment.html

Affected Resource(s) and/or Data Source(s)

aws_apprunner_start_deployment

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "aws_apprunner_start_deployment" "example" {
  service_arn = aws_apprunner_service.example.arn
}

Hi @emoshaya, thanks for taking the time to raise this issue! 👏🏼 I'll happily pick this up.

I am configuring the resource to wait until the deployment operation reaches the 'succeeded' status before deeming the creation process successful.

Thanks for reaching out @emoshaya, I'm rewriting this resource in the coming days to adhere to the new standard of using the Terraform Provider Plugin Framework, shortly after that I would guess this gets merged. I'll keep you updated.

@emoshaya quick update from my side: the resource implementation is done, I just need to check why the test is failing.
