ECS Django Container Deployment #5

ECS Django Container Deployment

ECS Django Container Deployment #5

Workflow file for this run

# This workflow will build and push a new container image to Amazon ECR,
# and then will deploy a new task definition to Amazon ECS, when there is a push to the "main" branch.
#
# To use this workflow, you will need to complete the following set-up steps:
#
# 1. Create an ECR repository to store your images.
# For example: `aws ecr create-repository --repository-name my-ecr-repo --region us-east-2`.
# Replace the value of the `ECR_REPOSITORY` environment variable in the workflow below with your repository's name.
# Replace the value of the `AWS_REGION` environment variable in the workflow below with your repository's region.
#
# 2. Create an ECS task definition, an ECS cluster, and an ECS service.
# For example, follow the Getting Started guide on the ECS console:
# https://us-east-2.console.aws.amazon.com/ecs/home?region=us-east-2#/firstRun
# Replace the value of the `ECS_SERVICE` environment variable in the workflow below with the name you set for the Amazon ECS service.
# Replace the value of the `ECS_CLUSTER` environment variable in the workflow below with the name you set for the cluster.
#
# 3. Store your ECS task definition as a JSON file in your repository.
# The format should follow the output of `aws ecs register-task-definition --generate-cli-skeleton`.
# Replace the value of the `ECS_TASK_DEFINITION` environment variable in the workflow below with the path to the JSON file.
# Replace the value of the `CONTAINER_NAME` environment variable in the workflow below with the name of the container
# in the `containerDefinitions` section of the task definition.
#
# 4. Store an IAM user access key in GitHub Actions secrets named `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`.
# See the documentation for each action used below for the recommended IAM policies for this IAM user,
# and best practices on handling the access key credentials.
