Static website hosting feature in S3 bucket using CDK

Question

I am using AWS CDK to provision an S3 bucket and host an static website. Code below was already deployed successfully by running `cdk deploy` command.

```
    const myBucket = new s3.Bucket(this, 'MyBucket', {
      bucketName: 'my-bucket-name',
      publicReadAccess: true,
      blockPublicAccess: {
        blockPublicAcls: false,
        blockPublicPolicy: false,
        ignorePublicAcls: false,
        restrictPublicBuckets: false,
      },
      removalPolicy: cdk.RemovalPolicy.DESTROY,
    });

new s3Deploy.BucketDeployment(this, 'BucketDeploymentId', {
      sources: [s3Deploy.Source.asset("./src/website")],
      destinationBucket: myBucket,
    });
```

However, if I take a look to the bucket from Management Console **"Static website hosting"** seems to be disabled, as shown in the following screenshot

Is there any missing property or configuration I need to add to make my website available?

Accepted Answer

Hello.

I think you need to add "websiteIndexDocument".  
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_s3.Bucket.html  
> The name of the index document (e.g. "index.html") for the website. Enables static website hosting for this bucket.

So I think the code should be as follows.  
```
    const myBucket = new s3.Bucket(this, 'MyBucket', {
      bucketName: 'my-bucket-name',
      publicReadAccess: true,
      blockPublicAccess: {
        blockPublicAcls: false,
        blockPublicPolicy: false,
        ignorePublicAcls: false,
        restrictPublicBuckets: false,
      },
      removalPolicy: cdk.RemovalPolicy.DESTROY,
      websiteIndexDocument: 'index.html'
    });

new s3Deploy.BucketDeployment(this, 'BucketDeploymentId', {
      sources: [s3Deploy.Source.asset("./src/website")],
      destinationBucket: myBucket,
    });
```
