Jon Chery 4bd07a4fae feat(P27): validated per-module examples (D-058) + schema glob fix
Add modules/<name>/examples/ directories with simple.yaml + complex.yaml
(+ mysql.yaml for RDS) for every primitive and module pattern. All 25
example contracts validate against schemas/contract.schema.json. Update
the contract schema to allow object/array input values (for env vars).
Fix the platform-test schema-validation glob to modules/*/*/examples/*.yaml
to match the nested l1/l2 path structure. Update the microservice sample
contract note (env objects now permitted by the schema).

static-assets — Production static asset stack (S3 + CloudFront + WAF)

Module kind: module pattern | Version: 1.0.0

A production-ready pattern that references the s3, cloudfront, and waf primitives to deploy a static asset site with a CloudFront CDN edge (S3 origin via Origin Access Control) and WAF protection. A simpler S3-only variation is documented below.

Resources

The pattern references these primitives:

Primitive Purpose README
s3 S3 bucket (origin) README
cloudfront CloudFront distribution + OAC README
waf WAFv2 Web ACL (CloudFront-scoped) README

Inputs

Name Type Required Description
bucket_name string yes Globally-unique S3 bucket name
region string yes AWS region the bucket is created in

Outputs

Name Type Description
distribution_domain_name string The CloudFront distribution domain name
bucket_arn arn The S3 bucket ARN
web_acl_arn arn The WAF Web ACL ARN

Usage

Define a contract referencing this module (the production stack — S3 + CloudFront + WAF):

uses: acdl/pipelines/deploy.yaml@v1.6
module: static-assets
environment: dev
inputs:
  bucket_name: my-static-assets
  region: us-east-1

The composition wires the s3 bucket regional domain name to the CloudFront origin and the WAF web ACL ARN to the CloudFront distribution automatically.

Simpler variation (S3 only)

For a simple S3-only static asset site (no CDN, no WAF), a consumer can declare a contract that references the s3 primitive directly:

uses: acdl/pipelines/deploy.yaml@v1.6
module: s3
environment: dev
inputs:
  bucket_name: my-static-assets
  region: us-east-1

This deploys a single S3 bucket (no CloudFront edge, no WAF). Use this for low-traffic internal sites where a CDN edge is not required.

See the consumer guide for a step-by-step walkthrough, and the s3, cloudfront, and waf READMEs for the underlying primitives.

Compliance extension points

The pattern can wire compliance resources when the compliance milestone (GDPR, SOX, SOC2, HIPAA, DORA) lands:

  • KMS key — shared encryption key for S3 SSE.
  • S3 access logs — access logging to a separate audit bucket.
  • Object Lock — 7-year immutable retention for evidence.
  • Public access block — prevent data exfiltration.
  • CloudFront TLS/HTTPS — viewer protocol policy defaults to redirect-to-https; a custom ACM certificate can pin TLS to a customer domain.
  • CloudFront geo restriction — whitelist/blacklist countries for data-residency compliance.
  • CloudFront logging — access logs to an S3 bucket for auditability.
  • WAF rate limiting / geo blocking / custom rules / logging — see the waf README.

See the per-primitive READMEs for the per-module compliance extension points.

Versioning

1.0.0 — interface MAJOR, behavior MINOR, lifecycle PATCH. MAJOR bumps require a new registry entry (immutable publication); old entries enter a 12-month deprecation window.
