[Enhancement]: aws_glue_crawler support s3 notifications on existing glue catalog target

[aleksanderaleksic]

Description

AWS Glue crawler now supports incremental crawling on crawlers that are already configured for a target.
See the references for more info.

Affected Resource(s) and/or Data Source(s)

• aws_glue_crawler

Potential Terraform Configuration

Not sure what the best way to configure this feature but I see two ways.

1. By adding an s3_target and recrawl_policy (today you are only allowed to specify one target)

resource "aws_glue_crawler" "logs" {
  ...
  catalog_target {
    database_name = var.glue_database_name
    tables        = [
      aws_glue_catalog_table.catalog.name
    ]
  }
  
  s3_target {
    path = "/AWSLogs/"
    event_queue_arn = aws_sqs_queue.s3_event_notifications.arn
  }

  recrawl_policy {
    recrawl_behavior = "CRAWL_EVENT_MODE"
  }

2. By adding event_queue_arn attribute to the recrawl_policy

resource "aws_glue_crawler" "logs" {
  ...
  catalog_target {
    database_name = var.glue_database_name
    tables        = [
      aws_glue_catalog_table.catalog.name
    ]
  }

  recrawl_policy {
    recrawl_behavior = "CRAWL_EVENT_MODE"
    event_queue_arn = aws_sqs_queue.s3_event_notifications.arn
  }
