AWS CodePipeline (CI / CD) Tutorial with CDK
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2022
- CodePipeline is a popular Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) tool on AWS. In this tutorial, I show you how to setup a CI / CD pipeline using CodePipeline, CDK and TypeScript. We set up two stages, test and prod. I show you how to structure your CDK code to deploy two different lambda functions. In upcoming videos, I'll show you how to add unit testing to your pipeline to ensure application health prior to deployment.

Dude, heartfelt, thank you for the absolute pain you've been through to get this tutorial out. I truly understand the pain of troubleshooting for HOURS nonsensical permissions and unclear documentation. You're an absolute champ
Cool. This is something all companies want. It's really cool that you're making youtube videos for people that want to do this like myself.
Nice simple, concise walkthrough covering potential gotchas! Thanks alot :)
You are amazing !!! Thanks for all the hard work you do to make our life easier :)
I have cdk version 2.82.0 and the steps mentioned in the video works flawless without any change.
Finally found what I was looking on UA-cam for a long time. Thank you so much
You're very welcome!
Great video, was able to follow very easily. Would love to see you add onto this where we can use a dynamo and potentially an index on it that the lambda can write to as well as the unit tests you mentioned and alerts that can be added to the stack.
Thanks for the great suggestions Najeed! I'm currently working on adding Unit Tests and hope to post an update within a month or so. Cheers
I really appreciate all these tutorials, thanks a looot
hi, yes please make a video on adding unit tests to the code pipeline! it would take an avg dev to next level!
Discovering the Channel, Great content. Love it🙌
Thanks Mack! welcome to the channel :D
great waiting for unit testing too
Thanks! While I tend to do more with azure and Google cloud I always love learning more about the architecture because it applies across everything
I actually find I understand more when I use the same concepts with different execution
Glad I was able to help Erik!
Absolute incredible! Can you do tutor on CICD with react-git action?
Great Video - please can you show us how to deploy to different AWS accounts (e.g. dev, qa, prod etc) at each stage of the pipeline? I gave this a go and having issues with bootstrapping and establishing the trust relationships between the central tools and environment accounts.
Cheers!
Awesome video. We're in the midst of creating a similar CI/CD pipeline for our CDK project as well.
Given that it's been a year since this video and you said you were in the process of exploring this topic at the time, is there anything you've learned since that might change anything about the sample pipeline or the ideal CI/CD you described in your other CI/CD video?
Great job! And right it time for me when I need it. Thanks so much :)
You're very welcome Paulli!
Great tutorial!
You are doing an amazing job Sir. I think you for your videos. Subbed and liked.
Welcome aboard!
Nice video, I'm using a little bit different approach in my video. But your explanation is very good!
Great work !
Thanks a lot!
You're really a great instructor, I started experimenting with CDK watching your videos, can you tell me if it's possible to create the pipeline without the artifact bucket?
Thank you ...I wanted to do CICD using code pipeline for my project and I will use your video for reference. Only thing is that I am using python and I feel there will be changes in Shell step. Apart from that you are doing a good job. Also I felt like instead of passing account names and regions in each step. You can add them in a config and then reference it here. Or use context.json to have your account data and access keys. AWS recommends Context approach. I have used it in multi acc env deployments.
Thanks for the recommendation! I haven't come across Context but will take a look. Do you have any documentation suggestions to learn more?
@@BeABetterDev i will share a video with the setup i have currently in my day today work.

15:11 Adding Stage & Manual Approval
What do you use to create your system diagram?
Thank you for creating this!
Couple of notes:
Can you provision the secret that stores the Github token in CDK?
Can you provide more complex lambda solution(with npm packages) where you would need to bundle it, zip it, and deploy it?
yes you can provision secret that you obtained from github and you can use cdk to deploy it
You can provision the secret I would just be careful about storing access keys in source control :P
Could u help to create the ECS deploy version of this pipeline ?
Good day
Does the CDK code automatically create the IAM policies that is required for cross account deployment of the CF stacks?
Great tutorial! Thanks! Everything is clear. I like that it's not required to use a Codecommit and we can setup a CodePipelineSource with gihub repository. Is it possible to use same solution with Gitlab?
Thanks so much Alexey! Its definitely possible to use other source code providers. I'm not sure if Gitlab is supported out of the box but I know for a fact Github is. You may want to check out the console to see if Gitlab is a selectable option.
can i use this for deploying aws appsync as well?
Cool
Can you please help me on these.
What triggers updatepipeline? What is selfmutate .? What if i disable selfmutation?
How do we delete the stack when using CDK pipelines?? I have been searching for days
Awesome and very interesting/helpful video! Looking forward to see the next one. Could you please youse python instead of typescript? Thanks!
Hi, I use python for cdk and I will be doing same cicd for my project but in python. If you want I will make a video on it,
This is awesome. Followed through nicely but keep getting an error "Need to perform AWS calls for account ****, but no credentials have been configured' when I try to deploy. I get same error earlier when I try to attach execution policies.
Any help please?
Hey Francis! Have you run aws configure in your CLI to configure your AWS credentials?
Anyone know if they fixed the issue at 3:45 ?
Thanks ! I have learnt a lot.
I have a question. I have github token set up in secret manager. I changed aws-cdk version from 2.9.0 to 2.8.0.
But when I run cdk deploy it fails with the error message below.
"CREATE_FAILED | AWS::CodePipeline::Pipeline | Pipeline/Pipeline (Pipeline9850B417) Internal Failure".
I don't know how to fix it. Can you give me some suggestions? Or tell me what log I should look at to fix it myself.
Hi Yumin,
Two things can be going wrong here so here's some things I would check:
1) Did you delete the packagelock.json AFTER you changed the version from 2.8.0 to 2.9.0 ? Also, you you run npm build after that?
2) Did you create the github access token with the correct permissions?
I was running into the same "Internal Failure" error when I was trying to set this up and it was very frustrating. The way I figured out the problem is by using AWS CloudTrail. Cloudtrail shows you the API calls being made to AWS and shows the exact exceptions encountered. What you should do is run cdk deploy, observe the failure, and then go into cloud trail and search for "Exception" or "Error". You should be able to find the reason the failure is occurring.
Hope this helps.

Hi @Be A Better Dev
I always use cloudwatch to query and troubleshoot my application.
I didn't know cloudtrail could be used to solve the problem with cloudfomation.
I queried the logs of cloudtrail.
```
"errorCode":"ResourceNotFoundException","errorMessage":"Secrets Manager cannot find the specified secret. ","requestParameters":{"secretId":"github-token"}"
```
That's totally my fault. My Secrets name is not right.
It is clearly stated in the video, but I missed it because of my poor English.
After I fixed it, 'cdk deploy' completed successfully.
I am excited to have a new understanding of what cloudtrail can do. it's really a good experience.
Thank you very much!
Any one know ho to accelerate these code pipelines ? or how can we reuse the file assets that are being created every time we run the code pipeline
When adding new stages, git push updates the code in the repo but CDK Deploy seems to be not happening. Has anyone noticed similar issue?
Is CDK production ready in your opinion? The fact that you had to downgrade to an older version, and not assigning to a variable @5:20 makes me question that. What is the reason for this latter?
At the moment, CDK even doesn't have L2 construct library for HTTP API. It needs time imho.
I use it in production and it doesnt gave me any error at such, But one thinng is that CDK is based on cloudformation. So if something that you are trying is not allowed on cloudformation then it will not work on cdk too. But if you come across any errors then der is a community called cdk.dev who help you out very quicky and solve your doubts about cdk since these are the ppl who have built cdk.
Hi B R,
I've been using it for all my production systems at work for over a year. I haven't really had much problems with it at all. I think the downgrading is just due to the CDK Pipelines construct which is still a developing product. The error at 5:20 is probably something to due with my lack of knowledge of TypeScript and probably not anything to do with CDK itself - but who knows.
Hope this helps
Hope this is tracked or anyone in the comments is looking for the same, how does one cleanup a Stage deployed stack ?
My build step is failing because it can't install the lambda dependencies (Cannot find module '@aws-sdk/util-dynamodb' or its corresponding type declarations)
Hi Adrian, can you make sure you are running the latest version of cdk? Other than that I'm not sure why you would be receiving this error.
@@BeABetterDev Hey, I found the issue, I was using a separate package.json for managing the lambda dependencies, instead of using the project root package.json file. Also, any tips on how to create a unit test stage ? preferably with jest? thanks!
isn't the idea of stacks have everything grouped per project? I mean, 1 stack per project
You're very welcome
@@BeABetterDev it's a question, could you answer please ?
half life
Its not as easy as BBD make it look
haha bro don't feel bad... I know how inferior it feels to be screen sharing with the team and then have to pull up github desktop cause the cli has some buggy issue cause the cert or vpn or some garbage lmfao
