Feature: EventBridge Resources

With the release of event bus in CloudFormation (Announcement) we can create an EventBus resource and also update the Rule resource to optionally have an EventBus passed in.

Use Case

Want to use the new EventBridge resources.

Proposed Solution

Currently working on a solution following other resources as an example.

• 👋 I may be able to implement this feature request

Status

This is a 🚀 Feature Request

Ended up here from Google, it’s kind of confusing that all of the doco talks about CloudWatch Events, yet the service is called EventBridge. Did this get rebranded or something? Should the doco be updated to better match the current reality?

Yep! @aripalo An AWS::Events::EventBus L2 construct was merged in here: bbec8c5c3995b9400cfd6ad0d7a71e8f8646a3b9

Still need to add an eventBusName to the Rule construct and then this issue can be closed.
