Question… My stacks has lot of dependencies on SSM, due I’m storing some VPC IDs and references to other systems… etc… So I was thinking that maybe I can add an script or check at the beginning of my

index

which can check if all my SSM vars are defined in the current account/environment. I need this due I have currently 3 totally different AWS accounts (dev, stage, prod), so I need to manually configure each SSM instance by hand. Thoughts?

I throw errors when specific config values are missing (all my config vals are loaded from ssm)

Did you created a helper class or something?

I was thinking to add an stack with those pre-conditions.

To not add boilerplate checks on every stack.

Shit, I can’t do this from index, due SSM requires an Stack.

I would need to check the params on each stack 🤦‍♂️ .

Hey @Adrián Mouly, I remember you had a shared stack that you use to import the VPC. Does it make sense to check it in there?

I think having a shared stack to house common resources (ie. VPC, SSM) makes a lot of sense.
