Fargate Example

Steps to use

• Run docker-compose up --build -d
• Run docker images
• Get the image names from the previous command
• Create AWS ECR repositories with the image names (Grab the REPO_URL)
• Get the project prefix (PROJECT_NAME) from the image name (everything before the underscore _)
• Create a cluster
• Create a Task Definition with the ECR images (by default this uses the latest), check out the task-definition.json for an example
• Run ./scripts/build.sh PROJECT_NAME REPO_URL
• Start a new Task in your cluster
• Visit the Public IP and you should see a Hello World page
• Navigate to /phpinfo.php and you will get the PHP Info

Deployments

• Run ./scripts/build.sh
• Run ./scripts/deploy.sh FAMILY_NAME CLUSTER SERVICE (the image version will default to the latest commit id)
• A new task definition will be created in ECS
• The service you specify will be updated

Gotchas

• Docker-compose & Fargate use different networking so we need to replace the hostname in the nginx config when building (check the build.sh script)
• Source needs to be added to the Docker container as Fargate doesn't have access to the internals
