How do I wait until AWS ElasticBeanstalk has finished updating the environment during CI/CD?-CodePudding

I'm learning about CI/CD and currently trying to deploy an app (webapp) and a server.

In my CircleCI pipeline, I do the following:

Build WebApp -> Build Server -> Deploy Server -> Deploy WebApp

For deploying the EB application to the environment I'm using the AWS CLI (I could use EB but I'm exploring the regular CLI).

When I execute:

aws elasticbeanstalk update-environment --environment-name my-env \
--version-label my-app-version-2

it outputs automatically and continues to the next step. The issue, I want to be sure that everything in EB finishes before moving to the next step in the pipeline.

I could use a wait function or timer, but, I'd prefer if there's a way to keep the job running until EB finishes instead of returning.

CodePudding user response：

wait function or timer

Yes, this is what you have to use.

In fact AWS CLI provides a built-in waiter for that: [environment-updated (v1 / v2)].

You don't have to program your own wait function or timer as you can just use the one provided by AWS.
