šŸš€ Deploy static websites quickly and easily to AWS S3!

Disclaimer: This is a concept. Not an actual project. At least, at this point

Deploy a Static Site

Deploy a static site in three keystrokes!

shell

Requirements

  • Fast From first keystroke to live website!
  • Simple: One command deployment
  • Cheap: Free or basically free
  • Secure: Always secured with TLS

Components

There will be two components to this project.

The CLI

The command line interface will be the primary means of deploying websites. It will be simple but feature complete. The CLI will also supersede RVA-CLI, so it has to provide the same functionality as RVA.

The API

The API will serve as a sort of proxy to S3. It will provide authentication so that just any user can't publish to your website. The biggest challenge to this piece will be scalability. The API has to be able to proxy 100's of file uploads at once. The API will also handle provisioning of new buckets and CDNs.

Flow

  1. Developer runs max
  2. maxup checks that it has permission to deploy this site
  3. max uploads all the sites files to the API
  4. API receives the upload (checks users's permissions)
  5. API creates an S3 bucket (if it doesn't exist)
  6. Concurrently, API does these
    • API provisions CDN for the new S3 bucket (if it doesn't exist)
    • API uploads files to the new S3 bucket
  7. API responds to max with the new site's address
