Linking github repository with my Amazon EC2 Instances AWS

votes

I am new to github and AWS. I want to deploy my code directly from my github repository (a simple 'hello world' html page), and onto my EC2 instance. I was following this tutorial http://docs.aws.amazon.com/codedeploy/latest/userguide/github-integ-tutorial.html However on step 4 I am struggling.

It says after 'launched the instance and verified the AWS CodeDeploy agent is running, go to the next step'.

But, how do I verify AWS CodeDeploy Agent is running? It says to follow this link, however i am lost with it http://docs.aws.amazon.com/codedeploy/latest/userguide/how-to-run-agent.html#how-to-run-agent-install-windows (windows server)

Where do i put these commands in and where? And do I need the AWS SDK first?

Thanks

You can check if the code deploy agent is running from the command

sudo service codedeploy-agent status

If the command returns an error, the AWS CodeDeploy agent is not installed. Install it as described in To install, uninstall, or reinstall the AWS CodeDeploy agent for Amazon Linux or RHEL

If the AWS CodeDeploy agent is installed and running, you should see a message like The AWS CodeDeploy agent is running.

If you see a message like error: No AWS CodeDeploy agent running, start the service and run the following two commands, one at a time:

sudo service codedeploy-agent start
sudo service codedeploy-agent status

see http://docs.aws.amazon.com/codedeploy/latest/userguide/how-to-run-agent.html if you want info for another os type
