Welcome to the AWS CodeStar sample web application

This sample code helps get you started with a simple Node.js web application deployed by AWS Elastic Beanstalk and AWS CloudFormation.

What's Here

This sample includes:

  • README.md - this file
  • .ebextensions/ - this directory contains the configuration files that AWS Elastic Beanstalk will deploy your Express application
  • package.json - this file contains various metadata relevant to your Node.js application such as dependencies
  • server.js - this file contains the code for your application
  • public/ - this directory contains static web assets used by your application
  • tests/ - this directory contains unit tests for your application
  • template.yml - this file contains the description of AWS resources used by AWS CloudFormation to deploy your infrastructure

Getting Started

These directions assume you want to develop on your local computer, and not from the Amazon EC2 instance itself. If you're on the Amazon EC2 instance, the virtual environment is already set up for you, and you can start working on the code.

To work on the sample code, you'll need to clone your project's repository to your local computer. If you haven't, do that first. You can find instructions in the AWS CodeStar user guide.

  1. Install Node.js on your computer. For details on available installers visit https://nodejs.org/en/download/.

  2. Install NPM dependencies:

     $ npm install
    
  3. Start the development server:

     $ node app.js
    
  4. Open http://127.0.0.1:3000/ in a web browser to view your application.

What Do I Do Next?

Once you have a virtual environment running, you can start making changes to the sample Node.js web application. We suggest making a small change to /public/index.html first, so you can see how changes pushed to your project's repository are automatically picked up and,deployed to the Amazon EC2 instance by AWS Elastic Beanstalk. (You can watch the progress on your project dashboard.) Once you've seen how that works, start developing your own code, and have fun!

To run your tests locally, go to the root directory of the sample code and run the npm test command, which AWS CodeBuild also runs through your buildspec.yml file.

To test your new code during the release process, modify the existing tests or add tests to the tests directory. AWS CodeBuild will run the tests during the build stage of your project pipeline. You can find the test results in the AWS CodeBuild console.

How Do I Add Template Resources to My Project?

To add AWS resources to your project, you'll need to edit the template.yml file in your project's repository. You may also need to modify permissions for your project's worker roles. After you push the template change, AWS CodeStar and AWS CloudFormation provision the resources for you.

See the AWS CodeStar user guide for instructions to modify your template: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codestar/latest/userguide/how-to-change-project#customize-project-template.html

What Should I Do Before Running My Project in Production?

AWS recommends you review the security best practices recommended by the framework author of your selected sample application before running it in production. You should also regularly review and apply any available patches or associated security advisories for dependencies used within your application.
