AWS Elastic Beanstalk Example

This example demonstrates how to deploy a Go Fiber application to AWS Elastic Beanstalk.

Description

This project provides a starting point for deploying a Go Fiber application to AWS Elastic Beanstalk. It includes necessary configuration files and scripts to build and deploy the application.

Requirements

• AWS CLI
• Elastic Beanstalk CLI
• Go 1.18 or higher
• Git

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/gofiber/recipes.git
   cd recipes/aws-eb

2. Initialize Elastic Beanstalk:

   eb init

3. Create an Elastic Beanstalk environment:

   eb create

4. Deploy the application:

   eb deploy

Build Process

The build process is defined in the Buildfile and build.sh scripts.

• Buildfile:

  make: ./build.sh

• build.sh:

  #!/bin/bash -xe
  # Get dependencies
  go get -u github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2
  
  # Build the binary
  go build -o application application.go
  
  # Modify permissions to make the binary executable.
  chmod +x application

Application Code

The main application code is in application.go:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "os"

    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
)

func main() {
    // Initialize the application
    app := fiber.New()

    // Hello, World!
    app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
        return c.SendString("Hello, World!")
    })

    // Listen and Serve on 0.0.0.0:$PORT
    port := os.Getenv("PORT")
    if port == "" {
        port = "5000"
    }

    log.Fatal(app.Listen(":" + port))
}

.gitignore

The .gitignore file includes configurations to ignore Elastic Beanstalk specific files:

# Elastic Beanstalk Files
.elasticbeanstalk/*
!.elasticbeanstalk/*.cfg.yml
!.elasticbeanstalk/*.global.yml

Conclusion

This example provides a basic setup for deploying a Go Fiber application to AWS Elastic Beanstalk. It can be extended and customized further to fit the needs of more complex applications.
