Add staticResponseHeadersPolicy to NextjsProps

[Lightbirdv]

I would like to reuse the same policy for different cloudfront distributions. It is possible for the cachePolicies and the originRequestPolicies. So could staticResponseHeadersPolicy be added to the NextjsProps to be reused?

Hi @Lightbirdv, yes, you can customize the CloudFront Distrubtion's cache policies and origin request policies like this:

import { Nextjs, type NextjsDistributionProps } from "cdk-nextjs-standalone";
import {
  type DistributionProps,
  CachePolicy,
  OriginRequestPolicy,
} from "aws-cdk-lib/aws-cloudfront";

new Nextjs(this, "Nextjs", {
  defaults: {
    distribution: {
      cachePolicies: {
        imageCachePolicy: new CachePolicy(this, "ImageCachePolicy", {}),
        lambdaCachePolicy: new CachePolicy(this, "LambdaCachePolicy", {}),
        staticCachePolicy: new CachePolicy(this, "StaticCachePolicy", {}),
      },
      originRequestPolicies: {
        fallbackOriginRequestPolicy: new OriginRequestPolicy(this, "FallbackOriginRequestPolicy", {}),
        imageOptimizationOriginRequestPolicy: new OriginRequestPolicy(this, "ImageOptOriginRequestPolicy", {}),
        lambdaOriginRequestPolicy: new OriginRequestPolicy(this, "LambdaOriginRequestPolicy", {}),
      },
    } satisfies Partial<NextjsDistributionProps>
  }
});

Does this answer your question?

Or are you referring to being able to customize this construct?

[Lightbirdv]

Yes I am referring to the construct you linked. Since I want to customize and reuse it. I would be nice if we would be able to add the policy via the props

@Lightbirdv, I approved the PR raised to fix this, but I'm working towards a broader solution for this problem with an overrides top level prop. I've created an RFC for it here: #132. Could you please review it and share your thoughts?

Also, could you please share some sample code for how you're using staticResponseHeaderPolicy and it's use case? I'd like to keep a list of common customizations to this construct and their use cases.
