I am working on asp.net applications. The current plan is to setup CI pipeline in AWS with ECS. So basically I created 2 stages now.
Scenario:
I have an ASP.NET Web API application built on .NET Framework 4.6.2. I need to setup a containerized CI/CD pipeline using the AWS Code pipeline.
My initial focus to setup CI only which includes automating the source build, unit test and upload the build to ECR repository as a docker. This will be used in the next stage to deploy in ECS.
Current Progress and Problem Description:
Stage 1: Source This stage configured successfully with the GitHub webhook.
Stage 2: Build I used Microsoft docker ('mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/framework/sdk:4.7.2') as a build environment image. This is working fine for build and unit testing.
Now I need to build the docker image and push to ECR repository. I created a repository and done the commands locally. I also enabled docker support in my application so docker-compose also there.
I am stopped here as I don't have any idea to continue...
My current build spec file consists of following;
version: 0.2
env:
variables:
PROJECT: aspnetapp
DOTNET_FRAMEWORK: 4.6.2
phases:
pre_build:
commands:
- echo Logging in to Amazon ECR...
- aws --version
- $(aws ecr get-login --region $AWS_DEFAULT_REGION --no-include-email)
- REPOSITORY_URI=727003307347.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/ecr-repo-axiapp-cloud
- COMMIT_HASH=$(echo $CODEBUILD_RESOLVED_SOURCE_VERSION | cut -c 1-7)
- IMAGE_TAG=aspnetapi
build:
commands:
- echo Build started on `date`
- nuget restore
- msbuild $env:PROJECT.sln /p:TargetFrameworkVersion=v$env:DOTNET_FRAMEWORK /p:Configuration=Release /p:DeployIisAppPath="Default Web Site" /p:PackageAsSingleFile=false /p:OutDir=C:\codebuild\artifacts\
post_build:
commands:
- echo Build completed on `date`
- echo Pushing the Docker images...
- docker push $REPOSITORY_URI:latest
- docker push $REPOSITORY_URI:$IMAGE_TAG
artifacts:
files:
- '**/*'
base-directory: C:\codebuild\artifacts\
While running, I got an error on aws --version. From this, I can understand that we need to install AWS CLI on the build server. For that, I am creating a custom docker. I got an articles and following the same for this.
From the article, I have the following DockerFile
# escape=`

I tried to download AWS CLI using the command.
- If my understanding right, please help me to update the Dockerfile to install AWS CLI.
- So same way shall I need to install docker for windows also in the build server?
