ember-cli Getting Started with Ember-Cli and Deployments AWS S3

Example

To proceed with the deployment to S3, we will install these plugins:

• ember-cli-deploy-s3-index: It uploads the index.html to S3 with revision information, and activates it
• ember-cli-deploy-s3: It uploads the assets (js, css and other media files) to S3

As they are Ember addon you can easily install by running the following commands

ember install ember-cli-deploy-s3-index
ember install ember-cli-deploy-s3

All you need after that is to configure deploy.js file which should under /config folder:

// config/deploy.js

module.exports = function(deployTarget) {

  var ENV = {
    build: {
      environment: deployTarget
    },
    'revision-data': {
      type: 'git-commit'
    },
    's3-index': {
      accessKeyId: process.env['S3_ACCESS_KEY'],
      secretAccessKey: process.env['S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'],
      bucket: "your-app-deployment-bucket",
      region: "YOUR REGISION",
      allowOverwrite: true // if you want to overwrite index file if not change it to false
    },
    's3': {
      accessKeyId: process.env['S3_ACCESS_KEY'],
      secretAccessKey: process.env['S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'],
      bucket: "your-app-deployment-bucket",
      region: "YOUR REGISION",
    }
  };

  return ENV;

};

Notice that we have used the environmental variables within our config.If you need to read configuration from a file, it’s also possible to return a promise that resolves with the ENV object. Here is an example to define different environments in deploy.js file:

if (deployTarget === 'development') {
    ENV.build.environment = 'development';
    // configure other plugins for development deploy target here
  }

  if (deployTarget === 'staging') {
    ENV.build.environment = 'production';
    // configure other plugins for staging deploy target here
  }

  if (deployTarget === 'production') {
    ENV.build.environment = 'production';
    // configure other plugins for production deploy target here
  }

Finally, you can easily run following command to deploy

ember deploy [YOUR APP ENVIRONMENT] //e.g-> ember deploy production or ember deploy staging

if you like to see details you can run:

ember deploy production --verbose --activate=true
