This package has been deprecated

Author message:

Deprecated in favour of Amplify CLI, please use Amplify CLI instead of aws-cloudfront-s3-deploy

aws-cloudfront-s3-deploy

DEPRECATED: I would instead recommend using AWS' official CLI toolchain for such use cases - Amplify CLI. No updates will be made to this repository

Node.js module that:

1. Uploads files at a specified path to a specified Amazon S3 bucket that require updates
2. Optionally invalidates the files that were just uploaded in a specified Amazon CloudFront distribution.

This module is not brilliant - I implemented it after incurring costs for invalidating /* on my CloudFront distribution - with each upload only a few files would be changing, so I wanted a more atomic way to tell CloudFront which files to update. If you do not have this use case - I would recommend using the AWS CLI & a bash script or other such means

Usage

Programmatic

You can use the module programmatically.

let deploy = require('aws-cloudfront-s3-deploy');
 
let additionalParams = {
  cli: false,
  verbose: false,
  reuploadAll: false,
  distribution: {
    id: yourDistributionId
  },
  authentication: {
    profile: yourProfileName,
    keyId: yourKeyId,
    accessKey: yourAccessKey
  }
};
 
deploy('path-to-files', 'mybucketname', additionalParams).then(response => {
  //Do more stuff here
}).catch(e => {
  //Do more stuff here
})

The method has params in sequence:

• path - the path to the directory to upload, this will be excluded on s3 - i.e. if you upload public, then the contents of public will be uploaded to the root of your bucket.
• bucketName - Amazon S3 bucket name to upload to
• additionalParams - if passed as an option should be an object of type additionalParams.

additionalParams object

Keys as follows:

• cli - boolean indicating whether the program is being run in CLI mode (default: false)
• verbose - boolean indicating whether to run the program in verbose mode i.e. output a message for each upload (default: false)
• reuploadAll - boolean indicating whether to reupload all files regardless of if they have changed (default: false)
• distribution - object containing details of CloudFront distribution, absence will lead to no CloudFront distribution not being updated.
  • id - ID of Amazon CloudFront distribution
• authentication - object containing authentication options, absence will lead to using system defaults.
  • profile - identifier of profile in local AWS credentials ini file. (cannot be used in conjunction with accessKey or keyId)
  • keyId - AWS access key ID (cannot be used in conjunction with profile, must be used in conjunction with accessKey)
  • accessKey - AWS access key (cannot be used in conjunction with profile, must be used in conjunction with keyId)
