Use Auto DevOps to deploy to EC2

To use Auto DevOps to deploy to EC2:

1. Define your AWS credentials as CI/CD variables.
2. In your .gitlab-ci.yml file, reference the Auto-Devops.gitlab-ci.yml template.

3. Define a job for the build stage named build_artifact. For example:

   # .gitlab-ci.yml
   
   include:
     - template: Auto-DevOps.gitlab-ci.yml
   
   variables:
     AUTO_DEVOPS_PLATFORM_TARGET: EC2
   
   build_artifact:
     stage: build
     script:
       - <your build script goes here>
     artifacts:
       paths:
         - <built artifact>
