App Runner support #600

Open mats16 opened 3 years ago

mats16 commented 3 years ago

Is this related to a new or existing Amplify category?

api

Is this related to another service?

App Runner

Describe the feature you'd like to request

As a developer, I want to use App Runner (+ API Gateway) instead of API Gateway + AWS Fargate so that I can I can levarage App Runner's capability to quickly build API on top of container.

API Gateway is not required, but it is preferred since App Runner does not have an authentication feature.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add App Runner as an option into amplify add api and specify the name of the app on App Runner.

Describe alternatives you've considered

If there are two options using App Runner or AWS Fargate, it may makes developers to be confused.

Additional context

Developers sorrunding me who use Amplify are keen to use App Runner for API development and that'll acceralate their API development.

Is this something that you'd be interested in working on?
