FastBoot S3 Notifier
This notifier for the FastBoot App Server works with AWS S3 to poll an object's Last Modified header to detect when you have deployed a new version of your app.
To use the notifier, configure it with an S3 bucket and key:
const S3Notifier = require('fastboot-s3-notifier');
let notifier = new S3Notifier({
bucket: S3_BUCKET,
key: S3_KEY
});
let server = new FastBootAppServer({
notifier: notifier
});
When the notifier starts, it will poll the object at the specified
bucket and key. Once the LastModified
metadata changes, it will tell
the FastBoot App Server to fetch the latest version of the app.
Note that you should point the notifier at a static path on S3, like
fastboot-deploy-info.json
. That JSON file should then point the app
server to the latest application bundle. This way, you don't have to
propagate configuration changes to all of your app servers, and they can
poll a single key in perpetuity.
If you like this, you may also be interested in the companion fastboot-s3-downloader, which parses the above-described JSON file to find and download the latest version of your app.
