Grails Plugin - AWS Elastic Beanstalk Integration

This plugin provides Grails integration with the AWS Elastic Beanstalk service.

Features Grails scripts for managing AWS Elastic Beanstalk deployments:

• aws-eb-deploy: Deploy a WAR file to Elastic Beanstalk
• aws-eb-stop: Terminate (shut down) a running Elastic Beanstalk environment

Quick Start

See the online Quick Start guide: http://kenliu.github.io/grails-elastic-beanstalk/quick-start.html

User Manual

A detailed user manual is available online:

http://kenliu.github.io/grails-elastic-beanstalk/manual.html

Additional configuration

Config.groovy:

grails.plugin.awsElasticBeanstalk.applicationName = 'myApplication'
grails.plugin.awsElasticBeanstalk.environmentName = 'myEnvironment'
grails.plugin.awsElasticBeanstalk.savedConfigurationName = 'default' //TODO is this the same terminology as in the web interface
grails.plugin.awsElasticBeanstalk.systemProperties = ['property.name.1':'property-value-1', 'property.name.2':'property-value-2']

If the environment 'myEnvironment' does not exist it will be created automatically, the savedConfigurationName property allows to use a saved configuration for the newly created environment. As an alternative to the AWS Credential File described in a previous section, you can configure the authentication directly in your project configuration file. The credentials can be set directly (not recommended) or passed through system properties (recommended).

Config.groovy:

grails.plugin.awsElasticBeanstalk.accessKey = System.getProperty('BEANSTALK_ACCESS_KEY')
grails.plugin.awsElasticBeanstalk.secretKey = System.getProperty('BEANSTALK_SECRET_KEY')
