Ayman Zahran — Mon, 21 Mar 2022 12:44:36 +0000

Part2 (CDK App)

Part 1

Steps

1- Add Github Secrets

TWINE_USERNAME
TWINE_PASSWORD
NPM_TOKEN
NUGET_API_KEY
MAVEN_USERNAME
MAVEN_PASSWORD
MAVEN_STAGING_PROFILE_ID
MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY
MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSPHRASE

2- Create Project locally or launch using Gitpod-Part-1

mkdir projen-cdk-tutorial-part-1
cd projen-cdk-tutorial-part-1
code .
alias pj="npx projen"
pj new awscdk-construct

3- Configure Project

Add your code to .projenrc, This is the only file that will be modified. During projen it will scaffold your whole project including what you are reading right now ! :)

4- Execute projen

pj

5- Commit & Push

git add .
git commit -m "Commit"
git push

Part 2

Steps

1- Add Gitpod Secrets

AWS_ACCOUNT_NUMBER
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

2- Create Project locally or launch using Gitpod-Part-2

mkdir projen-cdk-tutorial-part-2
cd projen-cdk-tutorial-part-2
code .
alias cdk="npx cdk"
awscdk-app-ts

3- Configure Project

Add your code to .projenrc, This is the only file that will be modified. During projen it will scaffold your whole project including what you are reading right now ! :)

4- Execute projen

pj

5- Commit & Push

git add .
git commit -m "Commit"
git push

6- Deploy the ECS Stack

npx cdk bootstrap aws://$AWS_ACCOUNT_NUMBER/$AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
cdk deploy

Part 3

Steps

1- Add Gitpod Secrets

AWS_ACCOUNT_NUMBER
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

2- Create Project locally or launch using Gitpod-Part-3

mkdir projen-cdk-tutorial-part-3
cd projen-cdk-tutorial-part-3
code .
alias cdk="npx cdk"
awscdk-app-ts

3- Configure Project

Add your code to .projenrc, This is the only file that will be modified. During projen it will scaffold your whole project including what you are reading right now ! :)

4- Execute projen

pj

5- Commit & Push

git add .
git commit -m "Commit"
git push

6- Deploy CDK Pipelines

npx cdk bootstrap aws://$AWS_ACCOUNT_NUMBER/$AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
cdk deploy

7- Deploy ECS Stack via CDK Pipelines

git remote add codecommit "<YOUR_CODECOMMIT_REPO>"
git add .
git commit -m "Commit"
git push codecommit master

It is better to have your own repo which will be cloned to the Gitpod workspace so go to the Repo and Click on the fork button

Create Gitpod Workspace

It is time to launch your Gitpod workspace so go to the Repo and Click on the Gitpod button
Wait for the workspace docker container to be launched and vscode to be loaded

Execute Kubectl commands, Apply Kubernetes Manifest files and Have Fun!!

gitpod /workspace/KubernetesGitpodWorkspace (main) $ kubectl get nodes
