Creates an Amazon CloudFront web distribution.
For information about CloudFront distributions, see the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide. For specific information about creating CloudFront web distributions, see the POST Distribution page in the Amazon CloudFront API Reference.
NOTE: CloudFront distributions take about 15 minutes to a deployed state after creation or modification. During this time, deletes to resources will be blocked. If you need to delete a distribution that is enabled and you do not want to wait, you need to use the
retain_on_deleteflag.
The following example below creates a CloudFront distribution with an S3 origin.

event_type (Required) - The specific event to trigger this function. Valid values: viewer-request, origin-request, viewer-response, origin-response
lambda_arn (Required) - ARN of the Lambda function.
forward (Required) - Specifies whether you want CloudFront to forward cookies to the origin that is associated with this cache behavior. You can specify all, none or whitelist. If whitelist, you must include the subsequent whitelisted_names
whitelisted_names (Optional) - If you have specified whitelist to forward, the whitelisted cookies that you want CloudFront to forward to your origin.
error_caching_min_ttl (Optional) - The minimum amount of time you want HTTP error codes to stay in CloudFront caches before CloudFront queries your origin to see whether the object has been updated.
error_code (Required) - The 4xx or 5xx HTTP status code that you want to customize.
response_code (Optional) - The HTTP status code that you want CloudFront to return with the custom error page to the viewer.
response_page_path (Optional) - The path of the custom error page (for example, /custom_404.html).
The arguments for default_cache_behavior are the same as for ordered_cache_behavior, except for the path_pattern argument is not required.
bucket (Required) - The Amazon S3 bucket to store the access logs in, for example, myawslogbucket.s3.amazonaws.com.

origin_read_timeout - (Optional) The Custom Read timeout, in seconds. By default, AWS enforces a limit of 60. But you can request an increase.
origin_access_identity (Optional) - The CloudFront origin access identity to associate with the origin. The restrictions sub-resource takes another single sub-resource named geo_restriction (see the example for usage).
The arguments of geo_restriction are:
locations (Optional) - The ISO 3166-1-alpha-2 codes for which you want CloudFront either to distribute your content (whitelist) or not distribute your content (blacklist).
restriction_type (Required) - The method that you want to use to restrict distribution of your content by country: none, whitelist, or blacklist.
acm_certificate_arn - The ARN of the AWS Certificate Manager certificate that you wish to use with this distribution. Specify this, cloudfront_default_certificate, or iam_certificate_id. The ACM certificate must be in US-EAST-1.
cloudfront_default_certificate - true if you want viewers to use HTTPS to request your objects and you're using the CloudFront domain name for your distribution. Specify this, acm_certificate_arn, or iam_certificate_id.

If you have specified vip in ssl_support_method, only SSLv3 or TLSv1 can be specified. If you have specified cloudfront_default_certificate, TLSv1 must be specified.
ssl_support_method: Specifies how you want CloudFront to serve HTTPS requests. One of vip or sni-only. Required if you specify acm_certificate_arn or iam_certificate_id. NOTE: vip causes CloudFront to use a dedicated IP address and may incur extra charges.
In addition to all arguments above, the following attributes are exported:
id - The identifier for the distribution. For example: EDFDVBD632BHDS5.
arn - The ARN (Amazon Resource Name) for the distribution. For example: arn:aws:cloudfront::123456789012:distribution/EDFDVBD632BHDS5, where 123456789012 is your AWS account ID.
caller_reference - Internal value used by CloudFront to allow future updates to the distribution configuration.
status - The current status of the distribution. Deployed if the distribution's information is fully propagated throughout the Amazon CloudFront system.
active_trusted_signers - The key pair IDs that CloudFront is aware of for each trusted signer, if the distribution is set up to serve private content with signed URLs.
