Virtual Waiting Room on AWS

Site wrapper to absorb and control user traffic flowing into smaller web sites.

Prerequisites for Customization

Install/update to Python 3.x
Install the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI)
Create a Python virtual environment using requirements.txt and activate it
Configure the bucket name of your target Amazon S3 distribution bucket

Building distributable for customization

Configure the bucket name of your target Amazon S3 distribution bucket

export DIST_OUTPUT_BUCKET=<MY-BUCKET-NAME> # bucket where customized code will reside
export SOLUTION_NAME=my-solution-name
export VERSION=my-version # version number for the customized code

Note: You would have to create an S3 bucket with the prefix '-'; is where you are testing the customized solution. Also, the assets in bucket should be publicly accessible.

Now build the distributable:

cd deployment
chmod +x ./build-s3-dist.sh 
./build-s3-dist.sh $DIST_OUTPUT_BUCKET $SOLUTION_NAME $VERSION

Deploy the distributable to an Amazon S3 bucket in your account. The head-bucket command verifies that your account owns the bucket. Note: you must have the AWS Command Line Interface installed.

aws s3api head-bucket --bucket <MY-BUCKET-NAME>-<AWS-REGION> --expected-bucket-owner <AWS-ACCOUNT-ID>
aws s3 sync regional-s3-assets/ s3://<MY-BUCKET-NAME>-<AWS-REGION>/$SOLUTION_NAME/$VERSION/

Get the link of the solution template uploaded to your Amazon S3 bucket.
Deploy the solution to your account by launching a new AWS CloudFormation stack using the link of the solution template in Amazon S3.

Running unit tests for customization

Some packages require a build before unit tests will run
Install the common package into the virtual envronment before running

cd ./deployment
chmod +x ./run-unit-tests.sh 
./run-unit-tests.sh
