Instances of these classes should be passed to `TopicRule` defined in `@aws-cdk/aws-iot`. Currently supported are: - Republish a message to another MQTT topic - Invoke a Lambda function - Put objects to a S3 bucket - Put logs to CloudWatch Logs - Capture CloudWatch metrics - Change state for a CloudWatch alarm - Put records to Kinesis Data stream - Put records to Kinesis Data Firehose stream - Send messages to SQS queues - Publish messages on SNS topics - Write messages into columns of DynamoDB - Put messages IoT Events input - Send messages to HTTPS endpoints ## Republish a message to another MQTT topic The code snippet below creates an AWS IoT Rule that republish a message to another MQTT topic when it is triggered. ```ts new iot.TopicRule(this, 'TopicRule', { sql: iot.IotSql.fromStringAsVer20160323("SELECT topic(2) as device_id, timestamp() as timestamp, temperature FROM 'device/+/data'"), actions: [ new actions.IotRepublishMqttAction('${topic()}/republish', { qualityOfService: actions.MqttQualityOfService.AT_LEAST_ONCE, // optional property, default is MqttQualityOfService.ZERO_OR_MORE_TIMES }), ], }); ``` ## Invoke a Lambda function The code snippet below creates an AWS IoT Rule that invoke a Lambda function when it is triggered. ```ts const func = new lambda.Function(this, 'MyFunction', { runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_14_X, handler: 'index.handler', code: lambda.Code.fromInline(` exports.handler = (event) => { console.log("It is test for lambda action of AWS IoT Rule.", event); };` ), }); new iot.TopicRule(this, 'TopicRule', { sql: iot.IotSql.fromStringAsVer20160323("SELECT topic(2) as device_id, timestamp() as timestamp, temperature FROM 'device/+/data'"), actions: [new actions.LambdaFunctionAction(func)], }); ``` ## Put objects to a S3 bucket The code snippet below creates an AWS IoT Rule that puts objects to a S3 bucket when it is triggered. ```ts const bucket = new s3.Bucket(this, 'MyBucket'); new iot.TopicRule(this, 'TopicRule', { sql: iot.IotSql.fromStringAsVer20160323("SELECT topic(2) as device_id FROM 'device/+/data'"), actions: [new actions.S3PutObjectAction(bucket)], }); ``` The property `key` of `S3PutObjectAction` is given the value `${topic()}/${timestamp()}` by default. This `${topic()}` and `${timestamp()}` is called Substitution templates. For more information see [this documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot/latest/developerguide/iot-substitution-templates.html). In above sample, `${topic()}` is replaced by a given MQTT topic as `device/001/data`. And `${timestamp()}` is replaced by the number of the current timestamp in milliseconds as `1636289461203`. So if the MQTT broker receives an MQTT topic `device/001/data` on `2021-11-07T00:00:00.000Z`, the S3 bucket object will be put to `device/001/data/1636243200000`. You can also set specific `key` as following: ```ts const bucket = new s3.Bucket(this, 'MyBucket'); new iot.TopicRule(this, 'TopicRule', { sql: iot.IotSql.fromStringAsVer20160323( "SELECT topic(2) as device_id, year, month, day FROM 'device/+/data'", ), actions: [ new actions.S3PutObjectAction(bucket, { key: '${year}/${month}/${day}/${topic(2)}', }), ], }); ``` If you wanna set access control to the S3 bucket object, you can specify `accessControl` as following: ```ts const bucket = new s3.Bucket(this, 'MyBucket'); new iot.TopicRule(this, 'TopicRule', { sql: iot.IotSql.fromStringAsVer20160323("SELECT * FROM 'device/+/data'"), actions: [ new actions.S3PutObjectAction(bucket, { accessControl: s3.BucketAccessControl.PUBLIC_READ, }), ], }); ``` ## Put logs to CloudWatch Logs The code snippet below creates an AWS IoT Rule that puts logs to CloudWatch Logs when it is triggered. ```ts import * as logs from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-logs'; const logGroup = new logs.LogGroup(this, 'MyLogGroup');
