Stackattack

Stackattack provides a curated collection of high-level infrastructure components built on top of Pulumi. It allows you to deploy your applications on robust, secure infrastructure without giving up any control or spending days putting it together. Components are just functions, making them copy-paste friendly, so you can choose to use Stackattack as a library or just a set of working examples that you can take and modify for your own purposes.

What is Stackattack?

Stackattack eliminates infrastructure boilerplate by providing battle-tested AWS components with good defaults built on Pulumi. Instead of writing hundreds of lines of infrastructure code, deploy production-ready applications with a fraction of the effort it takes to wire it all up yourself. The following config deploys service to ECS with a database in ~30 lines:

import * as saws from "@stackattack/aws";

export default () => {
  const ctx = saws.context();
  const domain = "api.mydomain.com";

  const vpc = saws.vpc(ctx);

  const db = saws.database(ctx, { network: vpc.network("private") });

  const certificate = saws.certificate(ctx, { domain });

  const loadBalancer = saws.loadBalancer(ctx, {
    network: vpc.network("public"),
    certificate
  });

  const cluster = saws.cluster(ctx, { network: vpc.network("private") });

  const app = saws.service(ctx, {
    cluster,
    domain,
    image: "my-app:latest",
    loadBalancer,
    port: 3000,
    env: { DATABASE_URL: db.url }
  });

  return { appUrl: app.url };
};

NOTE: While this example is meant to demonstrate how much you can do with Stackattack with a small amount of code, it is not recommended to structure your infrastructure code this way with everying in a single stack. See the Structuring Stacks section for recommendations on how separating your resources into stacks.
