Clear S3 bucket after AWS Elastic Beanstalk deploy

Is it possible to clear the s3 bucket after aws beanstalk deployment? Or is it possible to just keep the last 5 deployments saved?

Hi @coduo_warmbold . That's currently not possible to do with the pipe. However, various workarounds exist:

1. Manually delete files from the bucket after deployment

   aws s3 rm --recursive s3://your_bucket_name

2. Use S3 Object Lifecycle policy https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/object-lifecycle-mgmt.html. For example, you can delete all files older than 1 day. 

In the meantime, we'll consider adding an option to avoid storing all application versions in s3.
