Deploy S3 hosted application using CodePipeline

AWS CodePipeline

A while ago I wrote how you can host your own single page application on S3. But how will you get your application on the S3 bucket? There are a couple of options here, you could upload it by hand? But we both know that is not the real solution here. No we want to automate this process! In this blog post I will show you how you can automate this using AWS CodePipeline.

Amazon CloudFront

In this example I will use my artifact called application and extract the content in the S3 bucket. It will assume the role that we specify as RoleArn to perform the upload. I will also set the CacheControl so that CloudFront knows that it needs to serve the new content.

AWS CloudFormation

When you deploy your infrastructure using CloudFormation. You can make use of the outputs within the CodePipeline. Another option is to use a naming convention. I like to use the outputs as it removes the need to define a name upfront. Making it more robust when you re-use snippets or deploy your infrastructure more than once.
