Use Auto DevOps to deploy to EC2

History

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>
