EventBridge Deep Dive - Webinar Cheat Sheet

This cheat sheet was created as a reference for some of the code and commands used in the Amazon EventBridge Deep Dive webinar.

Rules

Testing a Rule Pattern:

aws events test-event-pattern --event-pattern "{\"source\": [\"Order Service\"],\"detail-type\":[\"New Order\"]}" --event '{"id": "e00c66cb-fe7a-4fcc-81ad-58eb60f5d96b", "detail-type": "New Order", "source": "Order Service", "account": "123456789012", "time": "2016-01-10T01:29:23Z", "region": "us-east-1", "detail": "{\"orderNumber\": \"123456\",\"productId\": \"shoe_007\",\"price\": 130,\"customer\": {\"name\": \"Nick Smit\",\"customerId\": \"987654321\",\"address\": \"2121 7th Ave, Seattle, WA 98121\"}}\",\"EventBusName\": \"orders\"}"}' --profile webinar

Targets

Example Input Transformers:

Input map:

{"orderNumber":"$.detail.orderNumber","price":"$.detail.price","productId":"$.detail.productId"}

Input template:

"{\"orderNumber\": \"<orderNumber>\", \"productId\": \"<productId>\", \"price\": \"<price>\"}"

Connecting API Gateway to EventBridge

Integration request configuration:

To send events from API Gateway to EventBridge (referred to as CloudWatch Events in API Gateway console), the following needs to be configured:

AWS Service:    CloudWatch Events
Action:         PutEvents
Execution Role: (provide an IAM role that has full EventBridge permissions)

Then set the following HTTP headers in the integration request configuration (be sure to include the single quotes):

X-Amz-Target		'AWSEvents.PutEvents'
Content-Type		'application/x-amz-json-1.1'

Finally, in the Mapping Templates section, add a content type for application/json and set the template to the following:

#set($inputRoot = $input.path('$'))
{
  "Entries": [
    {
      "DetailType": $input.json('$.type'),
      "Source": "stripe",
      "EventBusName": "stripe-payments",
      "Detail": "$util.escapeJavaScript($input.json('$'))"
    }
  ]
}

The above example is for Stripe webhooks. You can update the DetailType field to reference any other field in your incoming HTTP request's json payload.
