Add support for tagging parameters

[martincostello]

Describe the feature

Add the ability to configure tag(s) to apply to parameters that are created in the parameter store.

Use Case

To make it easier to track resources in the Parameter Store which are created by applications using the NuGet package.

Proposed Solution

Extend PersistOptions with an IDictionary<string, string> (or similar) which is used to apply any user-specified tags to created parameters.

namespace Amazon.AspNetCore.DataProtection.SSM;

 public class PersistOptions
 {
     public string KMSKeyId { get; set; }
     public TierStorageMode TierStorageMode { get; set; } = TierStorageMode.StandardOnly;
+    public IDictionary<string, string> Tags { get; set; } = new Dictionary<string, string>();
 }

@martincostello Thanks for opening feature request. Please confirm if you are referring to Tagging Systems Manager parameters and adding support to the library.

[martincostello]

Yes, that's correct. I saw that the library created new parameters for the keys at runtime, but when viewing them in the AWS Console they had no tags.

Can the tagging feature be made optional like the .ApplicaitonName()

[normj]

@martincostello I think this sounds like a great feature idea. If you are interested in doing a PR for it that is more likely to make it get done and released sooner. Otherwise we can add it to our queue. If you do make a PR feel free to tag me.

@saviour123 I'm not sure what you mean by optional. If the Tags collection is empty then no tags would be applied to the parameter.

[martincostello]

Thanks Norm - I’ll see if I can make a start on something next week.

@normj Opened #48 to implement this.
