So, I have 3 different cdk.json files with different name/value pairs: cdk.json, cdk-west.json cdk-east.json
When, I run a synth or deploy, can I specify a specific json file instead of the default cdk.json one?
I know you can change profiles with the --profile option, but not sure about cdk.json
Unfortunately, there is no such option.
A good way around this is to add an "environment" attribute to your cdk.json file with attributes for each environment that contain settings for that environment.
{
...
"environments":{
"xxxxxxxxxxxx":{
"name": "dev",
"awsAccountId":"xxxxxxxxxxxx",
"awsRegion":"us-west-2",
"logLevel":"debug",
"customSetting": "value 1",
...
},
"prod-west-1-account-id":{
"name": "prod-us-west-1",
...
},
"prod-west-2-account-id":{
"name": "prod-us-west-2",
...
}
}
Then each Stack can grab the appropriate environment configuration based on the value of "this.account"
