Host a Static Website on Amazon S3

This example lives in the pulumi/examples repository. Check out just this directory to use it:

$ git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/pulumi/examples pulumi-examples
$ git -C pulumi-examples sparse-checkout set aws-py-s3-folder
$ cd pulumi-examples/aws-py-s3-folder

A static website that uses S3’s website support. For a detailed walkthrough of this example, see the tutorial Static Website on AWS S3.

Deploying and running the program#

Note: some values in this example will be different from run to run. These values are indicated with ***.

1. Create a new stack:

   $ pulumi stack init website-testing

2. Set the AWS region:

   $ pulumi config set aws:region us-west-2

3. Run pulumi up to preview and deploy changes. After the preview is shown you will be prompted if you want to continue or not.

   $ pulumi up
   Previewing update (dev):
   
       Type                    Name                  Plan
   +   pulumi:pulumi:Stack     aws-py-s3-folder-dev  create
   +   ├─ aws:s3:Bucket        s3-website-bucket     create
   +   ├─ aws:s3:BucketObject  index.html            create
   +   ├─ aws:s3:BucketObject  python.png            create
   +   ├─ aws:s3:BucketObject  favicon.png           create
   +   └─ aws:s3:BucketPolicy  bucket-policy         create
   
   Resources:
       + 6 to create
   
   Do you want to perform this update?
   > yes
     no
     details

4. To see the resources that were created, run pulumi stack output:

   $ pulumi stack output
   Current stack outputs (2):
       OUTPUT                                           VALUE
       bucket_name                                      s3-website-bucket-***
       website_url                                      ***.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com

5. To see that the S3 objects exist, you can either use the AWS Console or the AWS CLI:

   $ aws s3 ls $(pulumi stack output bucket_name)
   2018-04-17 15:40:47      13731 favicon.png
   2018-04-17 15:40:48        249 index.html

6. Open the site URL in a browser to see both the rendered HTML, the favicon, and Python splash image:

   $ pulumi stack output website_url
   ***.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com

7. To clean up resources, run pulumi destroy and answer the confirmation question at the prompt.
