Description

AWS recommends that CodePipeline connections to third party services like GitHub and BitBucket should be done using CodeStar Connections. It would be nice if Terraform supported this.

New Resources and Data Sources

• resource: aws_codestarconnections_connection (Add aws_codestarconnections_connection resource #15990)
• tag support for codestarconnections service
• resource: aws_codestarconnections_host
• data source: aws_codestarconnections_connection
• data source: aws_codestarconnections_host

The GitHub version 1 action is not recommended and will soon no longer be supported.

Sounds like this will be the only supported connection type soon.

Might be nice to have a codestar_connection data source as well so that you could look them up by name and reference their ARN in CodePipeline actions.

@shuheiktgw Will you be adding a aws_codestarconnections_connection data source as well?
If not, what would be the recommended way to obtain the ARN in a separate Terraform script? Add the aws_codestarconnections_connection resource to every script, or copy the ARN?

It doesn't look like the ARN has a predictable value, so it can't be constructed in-place.

@onitake Sure, I'll add aws_codestarconnections_connection data 👍
