If you’ve worked with Elastic Beanstalk worker tiers, you may be familiar with the cron.yaml
file, which sqsd uses to send jobs to your app. I recently deployed a new version of a Rails app to our worker tier environment, and the deploy failed, and hard.
When my apps were still on the now-deprecated platform version of Elastic Beanstalk (pre-Amazon Linux 2), my deployment process was simple. I’d create a release on GitHub, download the “Source code (zip)” file GitHub automatically creates, and upload it to the Elastic Beanstalk console.
In a previous post I wrote about a small script I call ebenv
, which makes AWS Elastic Beanstalk environment properties available to shell commands as environment variables. See that post for the rationale behind this script.
A Rails app I work on accepts file uploads from public-facing websites. Uploaded files may contain sensitive information. We offer this so people don’t have to email their sensitive documents to our customers.
