MountTarget ​

The MountTarget resource lets you manage AWS EFS MountTargets for your Elastic File System (EFS). A mount target is an entry point that allows clients to access the filesystem.

Minimal Example ​

Create a basic mount target for an EFS filesystem with required properties:

ts
import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";

const basicMountTarget = await AWS.EFS.MountTarget("basicMountTarget", {
  SecurityGroups: ["sg-0123456789abcdef0"],
  FileSystemId: "fs-01234567",
  SubnetId: "subnet-0123456789abcdef0"
});

Advanced Configuration ​

Configure a mount target with an optional IP address and multiple security groups:

ts
const advancedMountTarget = await AWS.EFS.MountTarget("advancedMountTarget", {
  SecurityGroups: ["sg-0123456789abcdef0", "sg-0fedcba9876543210"],
  FileSystemId: "fs-01234567",
  IpAddress: "192.168.1.10",
  SubnetId: "subnet-0123456789abcdef0"
});

Adopt Existing Resource ​

Create a mount target that adopts an existing resource instead of failing if it already exists:

ts
const adoptMountTarget = await AWS.EFS.MountTarget("adoptMountTarget", {
  SecurityGroups: ["sg-0123456789abcdef0"],
  FileSystemId: "fs-01234567",
  SubnetId: "subnet-0123456789abcdef0",
  adopt: true // This will adopt the resource if it exists
});

Using Multiple Mount Targets ​

Create multiple mount targets for high availability across different subnets:

ts
const mountTarget1 = await AWS.EFS.MountTarget("mountTarget1", {
  SecurityGroups: ["sg-0123456789abcdef0"],
  FileSystemId: "fs-01234567",
  SubnetId: "subnet-0123456789abcdef0"
});

const mountTarget2 = await AWS.EFS.MountTarget("mountTarget2", {
  SecurityGroups: ["sg-0123456789abcdef0"],
  FileSystemId: "fs-01234567",
  SubnetId: "subnet-0fedcba9876543210"
});
