appsync: L2 for AppSync Events

[tmokmss]

Describe the feature

AWS AppSync Events allows developers to easily broadcast real-time event data to subscribers using serverless WebSocket APIs, eliminating the need to build WebSocket infrastructure.

Release blog:
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/announcing-aws-appsync-events-serverless-websocket-apis/

Developer Guide:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/appsync/latest/eventapi/event-api-welcome.html

Use Case

Easily configure AppSync Events resources, e.g.

• Create an Event API
• Update configuration of the API, such as
  • authorization
  • namespace
  • logging
  • custom domain
• Configure event handlers for a namespace

Proposed Solution

No response

Other Information

It seems we don't have CloudFormation for AppSync Events support yet. After L1s are added, we can design L2 APIs. edit) L1s appears merged recently: #32007
Here is an implementation example: https://github.com/aws-samples/websocket-api-cognito-auth-sample/blob/main/cdk/lib/construct/events.ts

It will be great to have L2 constructs 💪

Are there already L1 constructs? 👀 I don't see any. But I can see it in CloudFormation docs.

hi! any news on this? I would like to start testing AWS AppSync Events but I really need to do it using AWS CDK and not through the console

Hi,
I’m working on it now.
It’s a bit complicated, so it might take some time.
