# AWS CodeCommit, CodeBuild and CodeDeploy: NodeJS App Create an EC2 instance (Amazon Linux 2 AMI) and connect to it. Clone this repo to the EC2 instance ```plaintext git clone https://github.com/rjthapaa/CICD_CRUD-APP-NODEJS-.git ``` ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693733871931/7f2c1a99-6145-4672-ae0c-91c7d47c6e99.png align="left") ### **CodeCommit** Navigate to AWS Console > CodeCommit and create a new repo ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693732674210/b9bf9926-d665-4afb-8a2e-4add74152823.png align="center") This repo cannot be accessed or configured using the root account, so we have to create a new IAM user and configure it ### **IAM USER** 1. Navigate to **IAM > Users** 2. You can create a new user by clicking **Add Users** 3. Give him an **AWSCodecommitPowerUser** Policy permissions 4. Click on **Create user** Attach the below policy ```plaintext AWSCodeCommitPowerUser ``` Once the IAM user is created under **security credentials** generate **Access keys** and **HTTPS Git credentials for AWS CodeCommit** **Access keys** are used to connect as a User to the **AWS console** through **AWS CLI** and **HTTPS Git cred** for cloning and pushing the code to **AWS CodeCommit**. ### **EC2 instance** Connect to the instance and start installing AWS CLI. ```plaintext $ curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip" sudo yum install unzip unzip awscliv2.zip sudo ./aws/install aws --version ``` Configure the CLI in the instance ```plaintext aws configure ``` Configure the Access and Secret keys that we generated from the IAM user ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693733345175/3c015a08-fbc7-4429-a50a-4b13e841b634.png align="left") Now clone the repository from CodeCommit to the instance Copy the HTTPS link from the repo ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693733473750/1d04eba4-a201-4d77-9a84-4de2a99dc76e.png align="left") On the EC2 instance use the git clone command to clone the repo ```plaintext git clone ``` Provide the **HTTPS creds,** we downloaded for the **IAM USER to clone.** Once it is a successful empty repository from CodeCommit is cloned into the Instance. ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693733953803/1d0ccb59-bd33-43f1-80c5-0dc521e86da9.png align="center") Now copy all the files from **CICD\_CRUD-App** files into **nodejsrepo** and commit it. ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693734092724/2168ccb7-dc29-4138-9183-6b739fbb9baf.png align="left") ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693734168411/efe06d86-affa-4421-a120-8cd819963e25.png align="left") Now check the AWS CodeCommit repository ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693734214200/e7b2312d-6f40-4cfa-b715-2e57d1b1740d.png align="left") ### **CodeBuild** Go to CodeBuild and click on **Create Project** Codebuild will be built from the CodeCommit repo files only ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693734963455/96ea6970-2516-4a0c-aa83-fe64929c5fd4.png align="left") Provide the source details **AWS CodeCommit** and **Repo/branch details** ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693735045908/c35c00de-840e-41b8-ad65-48a26aeb135e.png align="center") Update the OS and Environment type ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693735121784/61a95417-a165-4afe-92e8-4838cad382a5.png align="left") We need to create a service role so that CodeBuild can communicate with CodeCommit, CodeDeploy, S3, artefact and other resources Select **New service role** and the **Role name** will be automatically provided ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693735154283/410d29a4-3e72-44b0-b40a-fb414637f1f5.png align="left") Artifacts are the storage location of our S3 bucket. ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693736035799/9301f33c-99a4-4227-9f16-9c27f584a603.png align="left") ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693736065171/2564ed75-07cf-48a1-8329-8cf1c80fca9d.png align="center") That's it Click **Create Build Project.** ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693736122631/8022ab35-c6e2-47d4-8fe8-aeca39961354.png align="center") Let's start the **Start Build** now ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693736174823/0216b4f0-13ee-40a8-bd74-f10e1ca27b2d.png align="left") Build is success ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693737401233/8926fc13-cf5d-4284-b423-1649bf5480c3.png align="center") ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693737426197/e12655be-b2d4-43b5-9a32-1f6e578556ca.png align="center") Check the artifacts in S3 Bucket ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1693737545587/c6c348d4-e282-4069-8d10-beb3ddf54f43.png align="center") ### **CodeDeploy** We will be deploying the application with the help of CodeDeploy, for that we need EC2 with sufficient privileges and a code deploy agent installed. We also need an application package in the form of a Zip in S3 bucket. For Code Deploy we need **appspec.yml** and **deploy script** Deploy agent needs to be installed first on the EC2 instance, before installing the Agent, we need to create an IAM role for the EC2 instance and attach it. Once the role is created, go to the EC2 instance and select it.
