simple-web-app

This is a simple Node.js CMS web app spawn from Cody Project

https://github.com/bgenome/cody

To Deploy this Project I used the Following:

1. Docker-Compose
2. Docker-Machine
3. Docker HUB to store docker images after succesful build
4. AWS EC2 Instance
5. AWS S3 Bucket
6. Travis-CI

The CI-CD workflow starts with every PUSH to the master branch in this Github Repository

Every Push triggers the Travis-CI build job that does the following steps:

pre. Download from AWS S3 id_rsa private key to later use to connect to the AWS EC2 Instance
1. Build the docker images from the docker-compose.yml description
2. After Succesful build Push the docker images to Docker HUB to store them for later useage
3. Create connection to AWS EC2 instance as the docker-machine in the Cloud
4. Pull the latest Docker images from the docker HUB
5. Run docker-compose up -d to recreate the current running service with the new pulled docker images

Steps to contribute to the process:

1. Clone the repository

git clone git@github.com:bgenome/simple-web-app.git

2. Inside the project checkout to new branch

cd simple-web-app
git checkout <new_branch>

3. Do your thing :)
4. Commit your work

git commit -m"Enter Message Here"

5. Push your branch

git push origin <new_branch>

6. On GitHub request Pull-Request to start review process

And then there will be a build to check if your work didnt break the code. The final product can be found on this URL: http://ec2-34-245-215-61.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/en/

This is my first ever experience with AWS services and Continuous deployment to a running environment. As you can see there is more work to do to make this process more robust and full blown CI/CD pipeline.
