Project Name: Using AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store to Manage Elastic Beanstalk Environment Variables

Description:

This project provides a solution for loading environment variables into Elastic Beanstalk environments from AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store. It includes a Bash script that seamlessly integrates with Elastic Beanstalk's deployment process, dynamically fetching configuration parameters from Parameter Store and injecting them as environment variables into the application environment.

Usage:

1. Place the provided script (01_map_parameters_store_to_env_vars.sh) within the .platform/hooks/postdeploy directory of your Elastic Beanstalk application.
2. Ensure that your Elastic Beanstalk environment properties include a parameter_store_path specifying the path prefix for your AWS Systems Manager parameters.
3. Deploy your application as usual. The script will execute post-deployment and handle the retrieval and injection of environment variables from Parameter Store.

Dependencies:

• AWS CLI
• jq (a lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor)

Notes:

• Ensure that the IAM role associated with your Elastic Beanstalk environment has the necessary permissions to access AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store.
• Make sure that the AWS CLI is configured with appropriate credentials and region settings.
