@architect/destroy

Architect serverless framework module for destroying projects created with Architect

Architect Destroy destroys Architect-generated projects. More specifically, it destroys your projects' CloudFormation Stacks, CloudWatch Log Groups, S3 bucket used during deployment, SSM Parameters added by arc env, and if called with --force (or the force param via API), destroys your DynamoDB (@tables) databases and S3 bucket housing your static assets (@static).

Testing

This project uses Node.js's native test runner (node:test) for all testing. The test suite includes unit tests and integration tests.

Running Tests

# Run linter and unit tests
npm test

# Run only unit tests
npm run test:unit

# Run only integration tests
npm run test:integration

# Run tests with coverage report
npm run coverage

Test Structure

Tests are organized in the test/ directory:

• test/unit/ - Unit tests for individual modules
• test/integration/ - Integration tests for end-to-end scenarios
• test/helpers/ - Shared test utilities and mock helpers

For detailed information about writing tests, mock patterns, and testing best practices, see TESTING.md.

API

destroy({ appname, stackname, env, force, now, retries, credentials, quiet, region }, callback)

Destroys all infrastructure associated to your Architect app.

• appname: the name of the Architect app in question as defined in your app.arc file.
• stackname: the custom stack name (if specified during deployment, e.g. arc deploy --name foo)
• env: the stage or environment name to destroy, typical values are staging or production
• force proceeds to destroy your app even if it contains DynamoDB tables and / or an S3 bucket containing @static assets.
• now: (boolean) immeditely destroy the app (instead of waiting the requisite 5 seconds)
• retries: while waiting for a CloudFormation Stack to be destroyed, how many times do we ping the CloudFormation API checking if the Stack has been removed? This API is pinged every 10 seconds. If retries is exhausted, callback will be invoked with an error.
• credentials: (object) AWS credentials object with accessKeyId, secretAccessKey, and optionally sessionToken
• quiet: (boolean) suppress status output during destruction
• region: (string) provide region override
