CDK time-sleep

AWS CDK equivalent for Terraform's time_sleep resource.

For those who want to add intentional sleeps between creation or deletion of resources.

Usage

Install via npm:

npm i cdk-time-sleep

And use it from AWS CDK code.

const queue1 = new Queue(this, 'Queue1');
const sleep10s = new TimeSleep(this, 'Sleep10seconds', {
    createDuration: Duration.seconds(10),
});
const queue2 = new Queue(this, 'Queue2');

// create queue2 (at least) 10 seconds after creating queue1
sleep10s.node.addDependency(queue1);
queue2.node.addDependency(sleep10s);

const queue1 = new Queue(this, 'Queue1');
const sleep10s = new TimeSleep(this, 'Sleep10seconds', {
    destroyDuration: Duration.seconds(10),
});
const queue2 = new Queue(this, 'Queue2');

// destroy queue1 (at least) 10 seconds after destroying queue2
sleep10s.node.addDependency(queue1);
queue2.node.addDependency(sleep10s);
