How to invalidate a Cloudfront Distribution using the Python CDK?

Question

This is for a static site served from an s3 bucket.

I have this:

```
distribution = aws_cloudfront.Distribution.from_distribution_attributes(self,
                                                                                id="ImportedDistribution",
                                                                                domain_name='https://hgfdh.cloudfront.net',
                                                                                distribution_id='hgfdhgfdh')

#now invalidate the distribution
        distribution.invalidate(
            aws_cloudfront.InvalidationBatch(
                paths=['/*'],
                caller_reference=f'Invalidate {distribution.distribution_id}'
            )
        )
```
but I get: 
AttributeError: '+' object has no attribute 'invalidate'

Answer

I think this is correct, you do it as part of the BucketDepolyment:

```
aws_s3_deployment.BucketDeployment(self, "DeployWithInvalidation",
                                           sources=[aws_s3_deployment.Source.asset("./build/fdsf')],
                                           destination_bucket=website_bucket,
                                           distribution=distribution,
                                           distribution_paths=['/*'],
                                           )
```
