Project Description

The project involves deploying a Node JS app on AWS ECS Fargate and AWS ECR. Read More about the tech stack here

🔶 Task:

• Get a NodeJs application from GitHub.

• Create EC2 Instance and Install AWS CLI and Docker:

    #!/bin/bash
    echo "AWS CLI Installation"
    echo "***********************"
    sudo apt install -y unzip
    curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip"
    unzip awscliv2.zip
    sudo ./aws/install
    echo "Docker installation"
    echo "***********************"
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install -y apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common
    curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg
    echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
    sudo systemctl start docker
    sudo systemctl enable docker
    sudo usermod -aG docker ubuntu
    sudo reboot
  

  

  

• Clone the GitHub Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Chandreshpatle28/node-todo-cicd-jenkins.git
  

  

• Configure AWS ECR:

  Navigate to the AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR) and create a repository.

  

  

  Check the repo has been created.

  

• Create an IAM user in the AWS Management Console and attach the required policies for our project:

  

  

• Install the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) on the AWS EC2 instance :

    aws configure
  

  

• Navigate to the ECR repository created earlier and select View push commands:

  

  Retrieve an authentication token and authenticate your Docker client to your registry. Use the AWS CLI:

  

  Build your Docker image using the following command:

    docker build -t chandreshpatle28/node-todo-app .
  

  

• After the build completes, tag your image so you can push the image to this repository:

    docker tag chandreshpatle28/node-todo-app:latest public.ecr.aws/a5e0a3d5/chandreshpatle28/node-todo-app:latest
  

  

  Run the following command to push this image to your newly created AWS repository:

    docker push public.ecr.aws/a5e0a3d5/chandreshpatle28/node-todo-app:latest
  

  

  

• Configure AWS ECS:

  

  

• Create a task definition for your cluster:

  

  

  

• Deploy and Run the Task:

  

  

  

  Ensure port 8000 is open in the Security Group used in our task:

  

  

• Click "Run Task" to start running your Node.js app on ECS Fargate! :

  

  In conclusion, this project successfully demonstrated the deployment of a Node.js application on AWS Elastic Container Service (ECS) Fargate using Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR).
