Deploy Spring Boot application to AWS EC2 using GitHub Actions

In this video I will explain how you can deploy your Spring Boot application to AWS EC2 using docker and GitHub Actions. I will write CICD configuration(GitHub Workflow) to deploy Spring Boot application to AWS EC2 by containerization using docker.
Example Workflow: github.com/integrationninjas/...
GitHub Repository: github.com/integrationninjas/...

[@JAVAFULLSTACKDEVELOPER-zx7gt]

Hey what is the instance type you choosed in while lanching EC-2 instance ?

[@sagarkhatri5383]

Need to run the runner from the instance every time. can we configure the runner to keep running in the background?

[@IntegrationNinjas]

Yes, absolutely. You can configure the self-hosted runner application as a service to automatically start the runner application when the machine starts. Refer docs.github.com/en/actions/hosting-your-own-runners/managing-self-hosted-runners/configuring-the-self-hosted-runner-application-as-a-service

[@mrowox]

Very nice. Can you make a tutorial on how to deploy to GCP or Azure or heroku?

[@IntegrationNinjas]

I will soon create on Azure and GCP

[@mrowox]

Also it will be nice to see the process of creating the resources. For some reasons, my deploy action isn't being picked up by the self hosted runner in AWS

[@mrowox]

I have been able to solve this by setting runs-on: self-hosted but now the deploy fails and I don't even know why

[@ngonimugandani4504]

what changes in the workflows if i am connecting to a database (mysql)

[@IntegrationNinjas]

You will need a docker compose file having database configuration. I will create a tutorial on that soon.

[@naren06938]

I did same with ECS Fargate cluster thru Github Actions, I failed to deploy ECS-EC2, but got success in Fargate, whats the reason?

[@IntegrationNinjas]

Can you share the error here for analysis?

[@moriljeanfrancois8532]

Hi sir. I need to create a runner for each project. Or i can use this runner for other project

[@IntegrationNinjas]

Yes if you have organisation account, you can share and manage self-hosted runners across your organization using new policies and labels. Please go through this document: docs.github.com/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/actions/hosting-your-own-runners/managing-self-hosted-runners/adding-self-hosted-runners#adding-a-self-hosted-runner-to-an-organization

[@mrowox]

Also, do I need to have docker up and running in my ec2 instance before this will be able to run? I just created my ec2 instance from scratch but my deploy job is failing without a reason

[@IntegrationNinjas]

Yes, you need to have Docker installed and running on your EC2 instance for the GitHub Actions workflow to deploy your app using Docker.

[@mrowox]

I have docker up and running yet my deploy job is still failing@@IntegrationNinjas

[@mrowox]

also sometimes my runner goes to sleep and cannot service requests

[@IntegrationNinjas]

Check if runner is active and listening to jobs.

[@danujansivasundaralingam5772]

​@@IntegrationNinjasHow to keep runner always in idle mode.?

[@aakibkhan4299]

Is there any pipeline to automate whole process

[@IntegrationNinjas]

What exactly you are looking for?

[@Shinigami4rt]

.

[@user-sb4ge8zn4o]

i run to step deploy: Pull Image from docker hub docker pull lambmt2k/clover-network:latest throw error command not found

[@IntegrationNinjas]

Can u see if docker is installed on your runner? Which runner you’re using and if possible share workflow here

[@TheShareonz]
