Missing environment variable for deploy_rule_templates.py

[gorivishal11]

Another environment variable for AWS default region needs to be added to compliance-account-initial-setup.yaml since - python ./deploy_rule_templates.py $AWS_DEFAULT_REGION $OUTPUT_BUCKET_NO_REGION $ENGINE_RULE_NAME $OTHER_ACTIVE_REGIONS in buildspec_deploytemplates.yaml takes 4 arguments.

  CodeBuildRuleDeployProject:
    Condition: IsMainRegion
    Type: AWS::CodeBuild::Project
    Properties:
      ServiceRole: !Join [ ":", ["arn:aws:iam:", !Ref 'AWS::AccountId', "role/ComplianceEngine-CodeBuildRole"]]
      Artifacts:

      Name: Compliance-Rule-Template-Deploy
      Description: Deploy the Config Rules CloudFormation to be deployed
      Environment:

        ComputeType: BUILD_GENERAL1_SMALL
        Image: aws/codebuild/python:3.6.5
        EnvironmentVariables:
         - Name: AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
           Value: !Ref 'AWS::Region'
         - Name: OUTPUT_BUCKET_NO_REGION
           Value: !Join [ "-", [ !Ref CodebuildDestinationS3BucketConfig, !Ref 'AWS::AccountId']]
         - Name: OTHER_ACTIVE_REGIONS
           Value: !If [ OtherActiveRegions, !Ref OtherActiveRegions, 'none']
         - Name: ENGINE_RULE_NAME
           Value: !Ref EngineComplianceRule

The AWS_DEFAULT_REGION is part of the default set of variable, available in CodeBuild: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codebuild/latest/userguide/build-env-ref-env-vars.html

Hence, no need to pass it from the CloudFormation as a customer-defined environment variables.

Are you experiencing any issues?

No issue. Thanks for clarifying.
