AWS CDK: Don't build assets when running 'cdk bootstrap' command

Time:04-28

I bundle my assets using Docker & Dockerfile:

Code.from_docker_build(
    path='/path',
    build_args={},
)

Every time I run cdk deploy or cdk bootstrap the code bundling is triggered.

  • On the cdk deploy action code bundling makes sense.
  • But on the cdk bootstrap command the code bundling should not be triggered. Is there any way to avoid code bundling during cdk bootstrap?

CodePudding user response:

Docs: If issued with no arguments... the cdk bootstrap command synthesizes the current app and bootstraps the environments its stacks will be deployed to.

So to have cdk bootstrap skip the synth step, (a) bootstrap from outside the app directory and (b) explicitly provide the account and region:

cdk bootstrap ACCOUNT-NUMBER/REGION # e.g.
cdk bootstrap 1111111111/us-east-1
