Need to build pipeline and deploy to aws codedeploy

Question

Hello, I want to initiate deployment of bitbucket repo code to AWS codedeploy service after each commit. Which will then install it on EC2 instance based on tag values. The EC2 instance will have linux, apache, php installed and there will be separate rds for mysql. Here is the pipeline yml file which i built from available documentation & its failing at uploading zip file to S3. Need help in solving this error as well want to know where should be appspec.yml be placed pipelines: default: - step: name: Deploy to staging deployment: staging #can be test,staging or production. #trigger: manual #Comment to make it automatic script: - echo "Deploying to staging environment" - pipe: atlassian/aws-code-deploy:0.2.3 variables: AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: 'ap-southeast-1' # ap-southeast-1, us-east-1 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: 'mykey' AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: 'mysecretkey' COMMAND: 'upload' # 'upload' or 'deploy'. APPLICATION_NAME: 'myWeb' ZIP_FILE: 'webstg.zip' S3_BUCKET: 'webdevops' VERSION_LABEL: 'web-stg-1.0.0' - pipe: atlassian/aws-code-deploy:0.2.3 variables: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: 'mykey' AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: 'mysecretkey' AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: 'us-east-1' # ap-southeast-1, us-east-1 APPLICATION_NAME: 'myWeb' COMMAND: 'deploy' # 'upload' or 'deploy'.

So how do we get hold of the files? When the docker runs where are the repository files?

Nowhere in your pipeline documentation do you state this step is required. I've just wasted 2 days researching why my pipeline does not work. You really need to work on your documentation Atlassian ! From the way its written it looks like your script files do the zipping it doesn't mention needing an extra step anywhere !

Hi @Santosh Maid, I can't see any commands prior to running the upload pipe that create the zip file you're trying to upload. The pipe doesn't create the zip, it will just take a zip file that already exists and upload it. You can create a zip file containing all the files you require as a command in the step before you run the pipes. This can be done with the zip program in linux. The basic command is zip -r For more information you can consult the documentation on https://linux.die.net/man/1/zip. As long as you zip the file before running the pipe it should run correctly. Cheers, Tom
