Build Status cdkdx typescript python Mentioned in Awesome CDK

CloudFront with Cognito authentication using Lambda@Edge

This construct is based on https://github.com/aws-samples/cloudfront-authorization-at-edge.

Install

TypeScript/JavaScript:

npm i @cloudcomponents/cdk-cloudfront-authorization 

Python:

pip install cloudcomponents.cdk-cloudfront-authorization 

How to use SPA

import { Construct, Stack, StackProps } from '@aws-cdk/core';
import { UserPool } from '@aws-cdk/aws-cognito';
import {
  SpaAuthorization,
  SpaDistribution,
} from '@cloudcomponents/cdk-cloudfront-authorization';

export class CloudFrontAuthorizationStack extends Stack {
  constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props: StackProps) {
    super(scope, id, props);

    const userPool = new UserPool(this, 'UserPool', {
      selfSignUpEnabled: false,
      userPoolName: 'cloudfront-authorization-userpool',
    });

    // UserPool must have a domain!
    userPool.addDomain('Domain', {
      cognitoDomain: {
        domainPrefix: 'cloudcomponents',
      },
    });

    const authorization = new SpaAuthorization(this, 'Authorization', {
      userPool,
    });

    new SpaDistribution(this, 'Distribution', {
      authorization,
    });
  }
}

How to use StaticSite

import { Construct, Stack, StackProps } from '@aws-cdk/core';
import { UserPool } from '@aws-cdk/aws-cognito';
import {
  StaticSiteAuthorization,
  StaticSiteDistribution,
} from '@cloudcomponents/cdk-cloudfront-authorization';

export class CloudFrontAuthorizationStack extends Stack {
  constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props: StackProps) {
    super(scope, id, props);

    const userPool = new UserPool(this, 'UserPool', {
      selfSignUpEnabled: false,
      userPoolName: 'cloudfront-authorization-userpool',
    });

    // UserPool must have a domain!
    userPool.addDomain('Domain', {
      cognitoDomain: {
        domainPrefix: 'cloudcomponents',
      },
    });

    const authorization = new StaticSiteAuthorization(this, 'Authorization', {
      userPool,
    });

    new StaticSiteDistribution(this, 'Distribution', {
      authorization,
    });
  }
}

Legacy CloudFrontWebDistribution

import { CloudFrontWebDistribution, OriginAccessIdentity } from '@aws-cdk/aws-cloudfront';
import { UserPool } from '@aws-cdk/aws-cognito';
import { Bucket } from '@aws-cdk/aws-s3'
import { Construct, Stack, StackProps, RemovalPolicy } from '@aws-cdk/core';
import { SpaAuthorization } from '@cloudcomponentscdk-cloudfront-authorization';

export class CloudFrontAuthorizationStack extends Stack {
  constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props: StackProps) {
    super(scope, id, props);

    const userPool = new UserPool(this, 'UserPool', {
      selfSignUpEnabled: false,
      userPoolName: 'cloudfront-authorization-userpool',
    });

    userPool.addDomain('Domain', {
      cognitoDomain: {
        domainPrefix: 'cloudcomponents',
      },
    });

    const authorization = new SpaAuthorization(this, 'Authorization', {
      userPool,
    });

    const bucket = new Bucket(this, 'Bucket', {
      autoDeleteObjects: true,
      removalPolicy: RemovalPolicy.DESTROY,
    });

    const originAccessIdentity = new OriginAccessIdentity(this, 'OriginAccessIdentity', {
      comment: `CloudFront OriginAccessIdentity for ${bucket.bucketName}`,
    });

    new CloudFrontWebDistribution(this, 'Distribution', {
      originConfigs: [
        {
          s3OriginSource: {
            s3BucketSource: bucket,
            originAccessIdentity,
          },
          behaviors: [authorization.createLegacyDefaultBehavior(), ...authorization.createLegacyAdditionalBehaviors()],
        },
      ],
    });
  }
}

Identity Providers

Identity providers can be specified in the authorization object. To make sure that the user pool client is created after the identity provider, please specify a dependency using "addDependency".

const identityProvider = UserPoolIdentityProviderAmazon(this, "IdentityProvider", {
  // ...
})
const authorization = new SpaAuthorization(this, 'Authorization_SPA', {
  // ...
  identityProviders: [cognito.UserPoolClientIdentityProvider.AMAZON],
};
authorization.userPoolClient.node.addDependency(identityProvider);

SPA mode vs. Static Site mode

SPA

  • User Pool client does not use a client secret
  • The cookies with JWT's are not "http only", so that they can be read and used by the SPA (e.g. to display the user name, or to refresh tokens)
  • 404's (page not found on S3) will return index.html, to enable SPA-routing

Static Site

  • Enforce use of a client secret
  • Set cookies to be http only by default (unless you've provided other cookie settings explicitly)
  • No special error handling
