Looking help/answers on how to correctly deploy to aws

[dougieled]

Hi, Looking some help/pointed in the right direction on how to exactly deploy this up to say AWS. Currently I have it so that the docker image gets built and pushed up to an ECR but have no idea on how to deploy it after that. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Following here. I'm also struggling on how to deploy this project on AWS elastic beanstalk with the ci/cd pipelines

@anindosarker What part of the process have you completed?

Thanks for the reply. However I was able to deploy it on my own using GitHub actions runner as CI/CD and pm2 to run the project. The yarn start command doesn't start the pm2 process as intended. So, I installed pm2 on my ec2 instance and manually ran the pm2 start command instead of using yarn.

This video was really helpful throughout the process https://youtu.be/cgWXQqL-ZU8?si=5mevZFUQ_VIUr-6X

Great.

I struggled with this for a while as well.

How I resolved the issue: I changed the package manager in the Dockerfile to NPM.

This instructions are for EC2. However you'll understand the basics if you follow these 2 videos.

Without docker deployment:

With docker :

After this, you should

• Understand the basics
• Modify the GitHub actions yml file according to this template, set up the branches for deployment etc
• Add running commands
