Cloudformation Notifications

[jgallen23]

We'd like to have the team get notified when CloudFormation is finished or errored. aws cloudformation deploy takes a --notification-arns parameter that we'd like to be able to set via .arc or env var. This would let us hit an SNS topic that pings us in slack.

I think it's as simple as adding another argument here: https://github.com/architect/deploy/blob/master/src/sam/01-deploy/index.js#L14

Neat, I like it. How would you expect it to work?

[jgallen23]

a simple approach could look something like:

.arc

@app
test

@notifications
{{aws sns arn}}

another option would be:

arc deploy production --notification-arns [values]

[ryanblock]

Since this is kind of vendor specific, how about something like:

@app
test

@aws
# ... all your other aws stuff
notifications
  {{aws sns arn A}}
  {{aws sns arn B}}

[jgallen23]

makes sense to me

I like this feature!

@jgallen23 just looping back to this… would .arc file be easier/better or would you prefer command line ?

[jgallen23]

no preference. Both would work for our workflow (we use github actions to deploy)
