CI/CD Frontend

I am setting up my #Cloudresume CI/CD frontend with the help of the below action. This action automates the upload of front end files to my S3 bucket. Please visit bio for more information.

Action

Uploads the website source code to my S3 bucket and also invalidates the Cloudfront cache after upload.

Purpose

1. Automate uploads of my repository files to my S3 bucket (which is hosting my static website) on every commit and push.

2. AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_S3_BUCKET, DISTRIBUTION_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY have been passed as environment variables for security purposes.

3. I modified the entrypoint.sh slightly and added the below script for invalidating cloudfront cache for my distribution.

           sh -c "aws cloudfront create-invalidation --distribution-id ${DISTRIBUTION_ID} --paths "/*" --profile s3-sync-action"
   

Usage - main.yml

            name: Upload Website

            on:
              push:
                branches:
                - master

            jobs:
              deploy:
                runs-on: ubuntu-latest
                steps:
                - uses: actions/checkout@master
                - uses: ./.github/actions/sam/package
                  with:
                    args: --acl public-read --follow-symlinks  --exclude '.git*/*' 
                  env:
                    AWS_S3_BUCKET: ${{ secrets.AWS_S3_BUCKET }}
                    AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
