Tutorials are here; Let’s start with creating a simple pipeline to keep our code consistent, and with a clear path of progress, and move onto two-stage.

The Tech

• AWS
• CodeDeploy
• CodePipeline
• S3
• CI/CD

Step 1 - Set Up Accounts and Access

Setting up accounts, IAM Permissions, and the AWS CLI. I’ve done it many times before and will skip them here, but check the tutorials above for more information.

Step 2 - Created S3 Bucket

Which is something I normally do through Terraform. I have placed it in us-east-2.

Objects are not public. I enable Versioning, which means multiple variants of an object can be stored without naming files testfile-2, testfile-3, etc.

Step 3: Created Amazon EC2 Linux instances and install CodeDeploy agent

• Made a AWS Service role for EC2 so it calls services on my behalf.

  • Added AmazonEC2RoleforAWSCodeDeploy. Check you add this one, not AmazonEC2RoleforAWSCodeDeployLimited
