Continuous integration and deployment have become an integral part of modern software development. They allow for faster feedback, higher quality software, and quicker time to market. In this tutorial, we will be exploring AWS CodePipeline, a fully managed continuous integration and deployment service that automates the release process for your applications.<\/p>\n
Before we start, make sure you have the following prerequisites:<\/p>\n
AWS CodePipeline is a fully managed continuous integration and delivery service that helps you automate your release pipelines for fast and reliable application and infrastructure updates. CodePipeline builds, tests, and deploys your code every time there is a code change, based on the release process models you define.<\/p>\n
Here is an overview of the AWS CodePipeline process:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
To set up AWS CodePipeline, follow these steps:<\/p>\n
Create pipeline<\/code>.<\/li>\n- Enter a pipeline name.<\/li>\n
- Choose your source provider (GitHub, AWS CodeCommit, or Amazon S3).<\/li>\n
- Choose your repository and branch if applicable.<\/li>\n
- Select the appropriate provider and project if applicable.<\/li>\n
- Choose the build provider (AWS CodeBuild or Jenkins).<\/li>\n
- Configure the build settings if using AWS CodeBuild.<\/li>\n
- Choose the deployment provider (AWS Elastic Beanstalk, AWS Lambda, AWS ECS, or AWS CloudFormation). <\/li>\n
- Configure the deployment settings if applicable.<\/li>\n
- Choose
Create pipeline<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nCreating a Sample Application<\/h2>\n
For this tutorial, we will set up a simple Node.js application as an example. You can use any application you want, but make sure to modify the CodeBuild configuration file and buildspec accordingly.<\/p>\n
\n- Create a new directory for your application.<\/li>\n
- In the new directory, create a
package.json<\/code> file and add the following code:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n{\n \"name\": \"my-node-app\",\n \"version\": \"1.0.0\",\n \"description\": \"A simple Node.js app\",\n \"main\": \"index.js\",\n \"dependencies\": {\n \"express\": \"^4.17.1\"\n },\n \"devDependencies\": {\n \"aws-sdk\": \"^2.862.0\",\n \"chai\": \"^4.2.0\",\n \"mocha\": \"^7.2.0\",\n \"sinon\": \"^9.0.2\"\n }\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n- Create an
index.js<\/code> file and add the following code:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nconst express = require('express')\nconst app = express()\n\napp.get('\/', (req, res) => {\n res.send('Hello World!')\n})\n\napp.listen(3000, () => {\n console.log('Example app listening on port 3000!')\n})\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n- Create a
test<\/code> directory and create a test.js<\/code> file. Add the following code:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nconst assert = require('chai').assert\nconst sinon = require('sinon')\nconst AWS = require('aws-sdk')\n\ndescribe('Sample test', () => {\n it('should return true', () => {\n assert.equal(true, true)\n })\n})\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n- Initialize a new Git repository in the directory.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Setting Up CodeBuild<\/h2>\n
Now that we have created a sample application and set up CodePipeline, we can configure CodeBuild to build and test the application.<\/p>\n
\n- Open the CodeBuild console in your AWS account.<\/li>\n
- Choose
Create build project<\/code>.<\/li>\n- Enter a project name.<\/li>\n
- Choose
Node.js<\/code> for the environment image.<\/li>\n- Choose
aws\/codebuild\/standard:4.0<\/code> for the Compute type.<\/li>\n- Configure the build settings:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
\n- Source provider: AWS CodePipeline<\/li>\n
- Environment variables: Add
NODE_ENV=production<\/code> as an environment variable.<\/li>\n- Buildspec: Use the following code:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
version: 0.2\n\nphases:\n install:\n runtime-versions:\n nodejs: 12\n commands:\n - npm install\n build:\n commands:\n - npm run test\n - npm run build\n\nartifacts:\n files:\n - '**\/*'\n name: my-node-app\n<\/code><\/pre>\nThis configuration file installs the required dependencies, runs the tests, builds the application, and generates an artifact to be deployed.<\/p>\n
\n- Choose
Create build project<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nSetting Up CodePipeline<\/h2>\n
Now that we have set up the application and CodeBuild, we can set up the pipeline to automate the process of building, testing, and deploying the application.<\/p>\n
\n- Open the CodePipeline console in your AWS account.<\/li>\n
- Choose
Create pipeline<\/code>.<\/li>\n- Enter a pipeline name.<\/li>\n
- Choose
GitHub<\/code> for the source provider.<\/li>\n- Choose your repository and branch.<\/li>\n
- Choose
AWS CodeBuild<\/code> for the build provider.<\/li>\n- Choose the CodeBuild project you created earlier.<\/li>\n
- Choose
AWS Elastic Beanstalk<\/code> for the deployment provider.<\/li>\n- Configure the deployment settings:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
\n- Application name: Enter the name of the Elastic Beanstalk application.<\/li>\n
- Environment name: Enter the name of the Elastic Beanstalk environment.<\/li>\n
- Deployment options:\n
\n- Deployment type: Choose
in-place deployment<\/code>.<\/li>\n- Batch size: Choose
1<\/code>.<\/li>\n- Wait time: Choose
0<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n- Choose
Create pipeline<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nDeploying the Application<\/h2>\n
Now that we have set up the pipeline, we can deploy the application.<\/p>\n
\n- Commit and push the code changes to GitHub.<\/li>\n
- Open the CodePipeline console in your AWS account.<\/li>\n
- You should see your pipeline in the console with a status of
InProgress<\/code>.<\/li>\n- Wait for the pipeline to complete.<\/li>\n
- Open the Elastic Beanstalk console in your AWS account.<\/li>\n
- You should see the new version of the application in the environment.<\/li>\n
- Test the application to make sure it is working as expected.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
