Work in progress for L2 CDK Constructs for ElastiCache (MemCached and Redis)

The interesting part is in the directory lib/aws-elasticache

When finished the purpose is to merge the code into the aws-cdk project.

Coding guidelines

• sensible defaults into the L1 constructs
• minimal external interface (hide anything unnecessary if possible)
• code should prevent errors from CloudFormation validation errors
• add do docs as much as possible for in code completion
• the constructs should behave like other constricts in CDK
• prevent users from adding secrets to the code

The project also is a CDK project you can use to do intergration tests

Useful commands

• npm run build compile typescript to js
• npm run watch watch for changes and compile
• npm run test perform the jest unit tests
• cdk deploy deploy this stack to your default AWS account/region
• cdk diff compare deployed stack with current state
• cdk synth emits the synthesized CloudFormation template
