Cloud Deploy Example

This project demonstrates a full-stack deployment pipeline using Node.js 22, Docker, Terraform, and GitHub Actions to deploy a Node app to AWS EC2.

Stack

• Node.js 22
• Docker
• AWS EC2 (free tier)
• Terraform for Infrastructure as Code
• GitHub Actions for CI/CD

Steps

1. Terraform deploys EC2 with Node.js 22 and Docker.
2. Push to GitHub triggers a CI workflow.
3. GitHub Actions copies code to EC2 and deploys a Docker container.
4. Site is live at EC2 IP (or custom domain if configured).

See setup.sh, Dockerfile, and .github/workflows/deploy.yml for implementation details.

S3-example, Steps to run:

Assumptions:

• you have an AWS account
• you have security credentials setup (AWS KEY and Secret)
• you have created a bucket in your aws account and have the name handy, and the security credentials allow you to access the bucket

Step 1: cd s3-example && npm install Step 2: in the s3-example folder create a .env.local file and ensure it contains the following information:

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your AWS access key> AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your AWS secret key> AWS_REGION=<the AWS region where your bucket lives> AWS_S3_BUCKET=<the name of your bucket>

Step 3: while in the s3-example directory start the app npm run dev Step 4: access the app (likely at http://localhost:3000) and upload a file. Observe that it's available in your bucket (this can be done via the management console or using the AWS CLI command aws s3 ls s3://<name of your bucket>)

Step 5: also try the download button, ensuring you provide the correct file name
