Devops API App

install the node packages for the api tier:

→ npm install

start the app

→ npm start

NOTE this app uses two env variables:

• PORT: the listening PORT
• DB: Name of the database to connect
• DBUSER: Database user
• DBPASS: DB user password,
• DBHOST: Database hostname,
• DBPORT: Database server listening port

These variables need to be set

Architecture

NOTE: Since we are doing backend application first. I am provisioning API ALB into public subnet for testing. Ideally it should be in private subnets and accept traffic only from Web ECS Service. We can implement this later.

• First we need to build the application through docker build.
• Push to AWS ECR Repo.
