How do I deploy an AWS Elastic Beanstalk environment with Docker?

When deploying a Docker application onto AWS using Elastic Beanstalk, we will create an Elastic Beanstalk application and environment to run our Docker container. This involves defining an Elastic Beanstalk application, an environment, and configuring them to use a Docker platform. Here’s an example of how to achieve this.

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";

const beanstalkServiceAssumeRolePolicy = aws.iam.getPolicyDocumentOutput({
    statements: [{
        actions: ["sts:AssumeRole"],
        principals: [{
            type: "Service",
            identifiers: ["elasticbeanstalk.amazonaws.com"],
        }],
    }],
});
const beanstalkService = new aws.iam.Role("beanstalk_service", {
    name: "beanstalk-service-role",
    assumeRolePolicy: beanstalkServiceAssumeRolePolicy.apply(beanstalkServiceAssumeRolePolicy => beanstalkServiceAssumeRolePolicy.json),
});
const app = new aws.elasticbeanstalk.Application("app", {
    name: "my-eb-app",
    description: "Elastic Beanstalk Application",
    appversionLifecycle: {
        serviceRole: beanstalkService.arn,
        maxCount: 128,
        deleteSourceFromS3: true,
    },
});
const env = new aws.elasticbeanstalk.Environment("env", {
    name: "my-eb-env",
    application: app.name,
    solutionStackName: "64bit Amazon Linux 2 v3.3.6 running Docker",
    settings: [
        {
            namespace: "aws:elasticbeanstalk:environment:process:default",
            name: "PORT",
            value: "80",
        },
        {
            namespace: "aws:autoscaling:launchconfiguration",
            name: "InstanceType",
            value: "t2.micro",
        },
        {
            namespace: "aws:elasticbeanstalk:container:docker",
            name: "DockerImage",
            value: "nginx",
        },
    ],
});

This script sets up an Elastic Beanstalk application with a corresponding environment configured to use Docker. We are using an Nginx Docker image in this example, but this should be replaced with your Docker image. It also configures IAM roles necessary for Elastic Beanstalk to interact with other AWS services.

In summary, you’ve now created an AWS Elastic Beanstalk application and environment set up specifically for running Docker containers. This configuration includes specifying the Docker image and instance type, setting environmental variables, and ensuring proper role policies for AWS services.
