Re: Deploying to AWS

dropwizard-dev to bcc, +dropwizard-user

You probably need to set an inbound security group rule to open up the port on which your Dropwizard application is serving. For instance, if you're running your server on port 8080 of an EC2 instance, you need to attach a security group to that instance that opens up port 8080 to public traffic.

Provided you have the port open, you should be able to curl the instance at the public IP or DNS name exposed by Amazon.

Hi,

How would I deploy dropwizard to AWS.  I was able to get the JAR onto the EC2 box and It runs fine but I cannot access the endpoints through the url.  I am not sure if I am deploying the jar in the correct location or if an EC2 is the correct instance. 

Thanks

the easiest way to run on AWS is to use Elastic Beanstalk. Create a new application with a Java environment and add a Procfile and Buildfile, beanstalk will take care of setting up the EC2 instance along with an ASG and ELB, just like Heroku.

The Buildfile can be as simple as this;

build: mvn -DskipTests resources:resources package

And the Procfile;

web: java -jar target/backend-01.jar

You’ll need to set your HTTP port to 5000 as that what Beanstalk expects (you can change that but it is easier to change on the Dropwizard side);

server:
  applicationConnectors:
    - type: http
      port: 5000

…

Beanstalk lets you push changes using Git (staged or committed) or upload jars, which ever works best.

graham,

I actually wrote beanstalker, the most used Maven Tools for AWS Elastic Beanstalk, and there's an archetype for that:

$ mvn archetype:generate -Dfilter=elasticbeanstalk-docker-dropwizard

(if someone wants to update it, it would be welcome)
