aws-codecommit: IRepository does not allow 'notify' triggers

[SeriesOfUnlikelyExplanations]

Describe the bug

When I import a repository, I am unable to use the repo.notify event. It does work when I create a new repo.

This fails:

const repo = Repository.fromRepositoryName(this, 'repoName', repoName)

repo.notify(handler.functionArn, {
  branches: ['live'],
  events: [RepositoryEventTrigger.UPDATE_REF],
  name: 'push',
});

This works:

const repo = new Repository(this, repoName,{
  repositoryName: repoName,
});

repo.notify(handler.functionArn, {
  branches: ['live'],
  events: [RepositoryEventTrigger.UPDATE_REF],
  name: 'push',
});

Expected Behavior

I expect this to not produce an error:

const repo = Repository.fromRepositoryName(this, 'repoName', repoName)

repo.notify(handler.functionArn, {
  branches: ['live'],
  events: [RepositoryEventTrigger.UPDATE_REF],
  name: 'push',
});

Current Behavior

I get the following error:

Property 'notify' does not exist on type 'IRepository'. Did you mean 'notifyOn'?

Reproduction Steps

const repo = Repository.fromRepositoryName(this, 'repoName', repoName)

repo.notify(handler.functionArn, {
  branches: ['live'],
  events: [RepositoryEventTrigger.UPDATE_REF],
  name: 'push',
});

'notifyOn' is declared here.

Possible Solution

Add the notify type to the IRepository class in addition to the Repository class.

Yes at this moment, notify is available only for class Repository, which represents a new one rather than an imported one(IRepository).

Was that by design or is it a bug? If by design, why?

We should close this issue as CodeCommit is no longer taking new customers and eventually will be deprecated. See here: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/devops/how-to-migrate-your-aws-codecommit-repository-to-another-git-provider/
