AWS — CodePipeline

What is CodePipeline?

Automate release pipelines for fast and reliable updates.

Create pipeline

aws codepipeline create-pipeline \
  --pipeline '{
    "name": "my-pipeline",
    "roleArn": "arn:aws:iam::123456789:role/codepipeline-role",
    "stages": [
      {
        "name": "Source",
        "actions": [{"name": "Source", "actionTypeId": {"category": "Source", "owner": "AWS", "provider": "CodeCommit", "version": "1"}, "configuration": {"RepositoryName": "my-repo", "BranchName": "main"}}]
      },
      {
        "name": "Build",
        "actions": [{"name": "Build", "actionTypeId": {"category": "Build", "owner": "AWS", "provider": "CodeBuild", "version": "1"}, "configuration": {"ProjectName": "my-build"}}]
      },
      {
        "name": "Deploy",
        "actions": [{"name": "Deploy", "actionTypeId": {"category": "Deploy", "owner": "AWS", "provider": "ElasticBeanstalk", "version": "1"}, "configuration": {"ApplicationName": "my-app", "EnvironmentName": "my-env"}}]
      }
    ]
  }'

Source stages

• CodeCommit
• S3
• GitHub
• ECR

Build stage

• CodeBuild
• Jenkins
• CloudBees

Deploy stages

• ECS
• Elastic Beanstalk
• CodeDeploy
• S3

Best practices

1. Use stages for separation
2. Implement manual approval
3. Use parallel actions
4. Enable notifications

Mini Practice

1. Create a simple pipeline
2. Add source from CodeCommit
3. Build with CodeBuild
4. Deploy to Elastic Beanstalk
