Lambda@Edge Immutable Web App
Deploys an immutable single page web app to AWS with Serverless.
All assets are served through CloudFront
and index.html
is generated dynamically using Lambda@Edge.
Each Serverless stage selects a default app version and environment configuration
using AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store,
Setting the appVersion
cookie will override the default.
Immutable app versions are built, uploaded to S3, and published to npm.
Deployment of a published version is done by updating a parameter in the store.
Development
Requirements
You will need AWS CLI, jq and Node.js with npm.
Be sure that all commands run under the correct Node version, e.g., if using nvm, install the correct version with
$ nvm install
Source code
The source code is hosted on GitHub. Clone the project with
$ git clone [email protected]:immutablewebapps/aws-lambda-edge-example.git
Initial Setup
Note: find and replace the following values in this repo
with custom values to setup a completely independent project:
immutablewebapps
, immutableweb.app
,
aws-lambda-edge-example
and aws-lambda-edge
.
- Setup Serverless Credentials for AWS and login to npm
and add the organization name to the parameter store
aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/organization" \ --value "immutablewebapps"
- Add a hosted zone in Route53 for
immutableweb.app
and add the Zone ID and app domain to the parameter store withaws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/hostedZoneId" \ --value "<zone-id>"
- Create a certificate with Certificate Manager for
aws-lambda-edge.immutableweb.app
and*.aws-lambda-edge.immutableweb.app
and add the certificate identifier to the parameter store withaws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/certificateId" \ --value "<certificate-identifier>"
- Create the parameters for the experimental stage with
aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/experimental/appDomain" \ --value "dev.aws-lambda-edge.immutableweb.app" aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/experimental/assetDomain" \ --value "dev-assets.aws-lambda-edge.immutableweb.app" aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/experimental/appVersion" \ --value "1.0.0-rc.0" aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/experimental/appConfig" \ --value '{"title":"Lambda@Edge Immutable Web App (Experimental)","reportUri":"https://httpbin.org/post","api":"https://httpbin.org"}'
- Build and deploy the initial version with
nvm install npm install npm run build npm publish npm run deploy:assets -- --stage experimental npm run deploy:app -- --stage experimental
- Configure and deploy the live stage with
aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/live/appDomain" \ --value "aws-lambda-edge.immutableweb.app" aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/live/assetDomain" \ --value "assets.aws-lambda-edge.immutableweb.app" aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/live/appVersion" \ --value "1.0.0-rc.0" aws ssm put-parameter --type "String" \ --name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/live/appConfig" \ --value '{"title":"Lambda@Edge Immutable Web App","reportUri":"https://httpbin.org/post","api":"https://httpbin.org"}' npm run build npm run deploy:assets npm run deploy:app
Note: the experimental stage is completely isolated from the live stage, and should be used for testing changes to the Serverless configuration and lambda before deploying to the live stage. Otherwise, all application versions may be tested directly on the live stage.
Development Flow
Immutable asset deployment
Cut a new version with, e.g.,
npm version minor
Then either locally or on CI, publish and deploy the assets
npm install
npm run build
npm publish
npm run deploy:assets
App deployment
Deploy the app to Lambda@Edge with
npm run deploy:app
Version deployment
Once the app and assets are deployed, deploy any version by updating the corresponding parameter.
For example, use version 1.0.0-rc.0 by default on the live stage
aws ssm put-parameter --overwrite --type "String" \
--name "/app/aws-lambda-edge/live/appVersion" \
--value "1.0.0-rc.0"
