Using the AWS Elastic Beanstalk Application task in Bamboo

You can use the Elastic Beanstalk Application task to create, update or delete an AWS Elastic Beanstalk application (see Deploying to AWS Elastic Beanstalk for an overview of the Elastic Beanstalk component lifecycle and deployment workflow).

Configuration

Application Management

While useful for end to end automation and test scenarios, it is quite common to create target applications e.g. via the AWS Management Console upfront and only manage Application Versions and Environments from your build and deployment projects.

To configure an AWS Elastic Beanstalk Application task:

  1. Navigate to the Tasks configuration tab for the job (this will be the default job if creating a new plan).
  2. Click the name of an existing AWS Elastic Beanstalk Application task, or click Add Task and then AWS Elastic Beanstalk Application to create a new task.

  3. Complete the following settings:

    1. Common to all tasks

      Task Description (Optional) Identify the purpose of the task.
      Disable this task

      Check, or clear, to selectively run this task.

      Action

      Each task supports one or more actions depending on the target AWS resource. Select the desired action and configure the action specific parameters below.

      RegionSelect the desired AWS Region. Alternatively, select [Use region variable ...] to supply the region dynamically via Bamboo variables (needs to be a region code such as ap-southeast-2) - refer to How to parametrize the AWS region via a Bamboo variable for details.
      ...Configure task/action specific parameters, see below ...
      AWS Security Credentials 
      SourceSelect the source for the required AWS Security Credentials - can be either Inline, an IAM Role for EC2 or a shared Identity Federation for AWS Connector.
      Connector(Conditional) Select the shared Identity Federation for AWS Connector. Alternatively, select [Use connector variable ...] to supply the connector dynamically via Bamboo variables (needs to be a connector id such as f24e81bc-7aff-42db-86a2-7cf82e24d871) - refer to How to parametrize the AWS connector via a Bamboo variable for details.

    2. Actions supported by this task:

      To ease common scenarios, the Create action allows to Update [the] application, if it already exists, similarly the Update action allows to Create [the] application, if it does not already exist.


      Create

      		 
      Update application, if it already existsCheck to cover both scenarios with a single task
      Application Name

      Specify an application name.

      • (info) This name must be unique within your account. If the specified name already exists, the task will fail.
      Description

      (Optional) Describe the application for easier identification.

      Update

      		 
      Create application, if it does not already existCheck to cover both scenarios with a single task

Variables

All tasks support Bamboo Variable Substitution/Definition - this task's actions generate variables as follows:

A task's generated variables might get amended with respective AWS API additions over time - a live build log will always provide the most current variable shape accordingly
