CustomEntityType

The CustomEntityType resource lets you manage AWS Glue CustomEntityTypes for defining custom entities in your data catalog.

Minimal Example

Create a basic custom entity type with required properties and a common optional property.

import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";

const customEntityType = await AWS.Glue.CustomEntityType("basicCustomEntity", {
  name: "Invoice",
  contextWords: ["invoice", "billing", "payment"],
  regexString: "INV[0-9]{5}"
});

Advanced Configuration

Configure a custom entity type with additional properties such as tags.

const advancedCustomEntityType = await AWS.Glue.CustomEntityType("advancedCustomEntity", {
  name: "CustomerProfile",
  contextWords: ["customer", "profile", "user"],
  regexString: "CUST[0-9]{4}",
  tags: {
    department: "Finance",
    project: "CustomerInsights"
  }
});

Adoption of Existing Resource

If you want to adopt an existing resource instead of failing when the resource already exists, you can set the adopt property.

const adoptedCustomEntityType = await AWS.Glue.CustomEntityType("adoptedCustomEntity", {
  name: "ProductCatalog",
  contextWords: ["product", "catalog", "inventory"],
  regexString: "PROD[0-9]{6}",
  adopt: true
});
