# Typescript app deployment against AWS EB

To deploy an app built with Typescript, we have to deploy its artifacts rather than source code managed by git.

## 0 - Install EB CLI

To manipulate Elasticbeanstalk, we need to use EB CLI, written in Python. We install this with PIP.

```sh

pip install awsebcli --upgrade --user

```

> If you don't have Python, you can download from https://www.python.org/. Any version above v2.7 or v3.4 should work.

>

> Also, you have to install `pip`. Check this link too. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip/

## 1 - Prepare package

### `package.json`

```sh

# Generate package.json

npm init -y

# Install dependencies

npm i -D typescript @types/node @types/express

npm i express

```

### `tsconfig.json`

```json

{

  "compilerOptions": {

    "target": "es6",

    "module": "commonjs",

    "rootDir": "src",

    "outDir": "build"

  }

}

```

## 2 - Create App

`src/index.ts`

```ts

import express = require('express')

const app = express()

app.use((req, res) => {

  res.send('hi')

})

app.listen(process.env.PORT, () => {

  console.log('server is ready.')

})

```

## 3 - Build typescript and check

Add `build` and `start` scripts to `package.json`.

```json

{

  "scripts": {

    "build": "tsc",

    "start": "node build/index.js"

  }

}

```

Compile and run our app with the scripts

```sh

# Compile typescript

npm run build

# Run with compiled javascript

PORT=3000 npm run start

```

Check our app actually working at http://localhost:3000

### 4 - Prepare Artifact

`scripts/dist.sh`

```sh

# If the directory, `dist`, doesn't exist, create `dist`

stat dist || mkdir dist

# Archive artifacts

zip dist/$npm_package_name.zip -r build package.json package-lock.json

```

Add `dist` script

```json

{

  "scripts": {

    "build": "tsc",

    "start": "node build/index.js",

    "dist": "sh ./scripts/dist.sh"

  }

}

```

### 5 - Deploy app

```sh

# Initialize app to EB

eb init

# Initialize environment

eb create

```

Add the below 2 lines to the bottom of `.elasticbeanstalk/config.yml`.

```yml

deploy:

  artifact: dist/aws-eb-typescript-app.zip

```

Deploy again

```sh

eb deploy --staged

```
