cdk-pipelines: Node 16 is approaching end-of-life

[modosm]

Describe the feature

Currently cdk pipelines are using the aws/codebuild/standard:6.0 image on CodeBuild. Please update the default image to aws/codebuild/standard:7.0 or to aws/codebuild/amazonlinux2-aarch64-standard:3.0.

Use Case

Node 16 is approaching end-of-life and will no longer be supported in new releases after 2023-09-11
Please upgrade to a supported node version as soon as possible.

Proposed Solution

Update the CDKP_DEFAULT_CODEBUILD_IMAGE to LinuxBuildImage.STANDARD_7_0 or to AMAZON_LINUX_2_5 in packages/aws-cdk-lib/pipelines/lib/private/default-codebuild-image.ts

Other Information

No response

Thankfully, Rico made this really easy to change the last time we changed the default image

aws-cdk/packages/aws-cdk-lib/pipelines/lib/private/default-codebuild-image.ts

Line 3 in 00a7f03

export const CDKP_DEFAULT_CODEBUILD_IMAGE = LinuxBuildImage.STANDARD_6_0;

Hey @peterwoodworth,

I have tried to update one of my CDK pipelines to LinuxBuildImage.STANDARD_7_0 but looks like CodeBuild is not synthesizes any template with node 18 and so the cdk.out directory is not created.

[ChrisLahaye]

@modosm same issue here, did you find a solution?

[best-cloud]

It happens in aws/codebuild/standard:7.0 and The Amazon Linux 2 x86_64 standard image, version 5.0.

Can someone fix it?
