ember-cli-deploy-elastic-beanstalk

An ember-cli-deploy plugin for deploying an Ember app to AWS Elastic Beanstalk running FastBoot. Designed to be used in tandem with fastboot-aws.

This plugin builds your application for FastBoot server-side rendering, then uploads a zip of the build to Amazon S3.

Requires Node.js v4 or later.

What is an ember-cli-deploy plugin?

A plugin is an addon that can be executed as a part of the ember-cli-deploy pipeline. A plugin will implement one or more of the ember-cli-deploy's pipeline hooks.

For more information on what plugins are and how they work, please refer to the Plugin Documentation.

Quick Start

To get up and running quickly, do the following:

• Configure your ember-cli-deploy pipeline for deploying to a CDN as usual. I recommend ember-cli-deploy-s3 with CloudFront.
• Install this plugin

$ ember install ember-cli-deploy-elastic-beanstalk

• Place the following configuration into config/deploy.js

ENV['elastic-beanstalk'] = {
  bucket: '<your-s3-bucket>'
}

• Run the pipeline

$ ember deploy

Installation

Run the following command in your terminal:

ember install ember-cli-deploy-elastic-beanstalk

A Note on AWS Permissions

This plugin relies on the official AWS SDK to perform uploads to S3. As such, it will inherit any credentials you have saved by running aws configure via the AWS CLI.

For managing multiple credentials, I recommend using the officially-supported profiles feature of AWS.

To create a new profile, make sure you've installed the AWS CLI and then run:

aws configure --profile acme-corp

Enter your access key, secret key and other information requested. Once done, this will create a profile called acme-corp.

To do a deploy with this saved credential profile, invoke the command with the AWS_PROFILE environment variable set:

AWS_PROFILE=acme-corp ember deploy

Thanks

A big thank you to Luke Melia for helping me refactor my deploy script into an ember-cli-deploy plugin and to the entire ember-cli-deploy core team for answering my many questions.
