LogGroup | Praxis resources

Resource definition

What this resource looks like

This is the CUE shape a Praxis template uses to declare a LogGroup. The resource key is local to the template; metadata.name supplies its stable Praxis identity.

resources: logs: {
  apiVersion: "praxis.io/alpha"
  kind: "LogGroup"
  metadata: {name: "/praxis/payments", labels: {}}
  spec: {
    region: "us-west-2"
    retentionInDays: 30
    tags: environment: "prod"
  }
}

Read without ownership

Data-source lookup

A data block reads an existing LogGroup and exposes its outputs without storing lifecycle state. The generic filter surface accepts id, name, and tag; supported combinations depend on the AWS identity used by this resource.

data: existing: {
  kind: "LogGroup"
  region: "us-west-2"
  filter: {
    name: "replace-with-provider-name"
  }
}

Adopt existing infrastructure

Import

Import persists Praxis state for an existing AWS resource. For this kind, supply: Log group name and region. The example starts in observed mode so Praxis reports drift without correcting it.

praxis import LogGroup \
  --id <provider-identifier> \
  --region us-west-2 \
  --account production \
  --observe
