Here is what we are gonna do/learn in this document
- Using Gitlab-CI How to Dockerize and Deploy our .Net Core Application To ECS Fargate
What we need are,
- Gitlab Repository
- AWS Account ( Access and Secret Keys )
1. Edit Files on Repository
1.1 Edit the aws-ecs.json File
First, create and edit aws-ecs.json file root folder in the repository
Change the parameters with yours,
executionRoleArn: IAM ID
name: name of your ECS
image: name of your image URL in ECR
awslogs-region: the region you are working in
awslogs-stream-prefix: optional
awslogs-group: optional
taskRoleArn: IAM ID
family: your task definition family name
1.2 Update the .gitlab-ci.yml File
Change the parameters with yours,
EXAMPLE_REPOSITORY_URL: name of your image name
REGION: the region you are working in
EXAMPLE_TASK_DEFINTION_NAME: optional
EXAMPLE_CLUSTER_NAME: name of your ECS
EXAMPLE_SERVICE_NAME: optional
EXAMPLE_DESIRED_COUNT: optional -How many tasks you planning to run-
You can set the parameters in GitLab > Settings > CI / CD > Variables
But in this documentation, I chose to set the parameters in the Yaml file.
1.3 Dockerfile
Edit Dockerfile with your definitions it is just an example,
2. Final Step
Before deploying the app we need to add variables into the GitLab which are necessary to connect our AWS account.
in GitLab > Settings > CI / CD > Variables
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID : ****
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY : ****
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION : ****
