Simple deployments

Deploy to AWS ElasticBeanstalk

Deploy packages to AWS Elastic Beanstalk easily. Used by the Instant CLI to automate Elastic Beanstalk deployments.

It can be used with the @instant.dev/encrypt to automatically encrypt .env files stored in plaintext, with the encryption keys loaded into ElasticBeanstalk at runtime as environment variables.

import { DeploymentManager } from '@instant.dev/deploy';
import EncryptionTools from '@instant.dev/encrypt';

const envName = `staging`;

// Prepare to encrypt .env file
const et = new EncryptionTools();
// Loads deployment variables from ".deployconfig.staging" INI-format file
const dm = new DeploymentManager(`.deployconfig.${envName}`);

// Encrypts `.env.staging` as `.env` in final package
// Also deletes all files matching `.env.*` from final package
const {files, env} = et.encryptEnvFileFromPackage(
  // Reads all files in this directory, stores them in files {} object
  dm.readPackageFiles('~/projects/instant.dev/test-empty'),
  `.env.${envName}`,
  `.env`,
  /^\.env\..*$/
);

// Deploys to ElasticBeanstalk
let deployResult = await dm.deployToElasticBeanstalk(files, envName, env);
/**
{
  app_url: 'my-app.elasticbeanstalk.com',
  dashboard_url: 'https://console.aws.amazon.com/...'
}
