We’re into Week 4 and the project and the conversations are really starting to click. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve been focused on the last week on getting the landing page sorted out and dealing with getting images loaded into S3. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am constantly amazed at how deep and dark the AWS hole can be and how long it takes to learn everything. I have setup S3 before in web app and thought it would be no sweat, but then I decided to update to the V3 of the SDK. Of course that brought a whole new level of confusion about what to import and how the specific functions worked. Plus, I split the “service” out as a separate class so that my team could use the S3 image uploader where ever they would like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It all worked great. But then came the deployment to the real world. And of course it doesn’t work because I had setup the S3 bucket to host the pictures as a static website and created an alias in route 53 so I could display the images using “http:\/\/siteimages.farmwork.us\/imageid.jpg.” However, I set the rest of the site up as https. So. Chrome auto corrects those http links to https and then they don’t find a home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I ended up setting up a Cloudfront distribution in the mean time for siteimages.farmwork.us and pointed it to the S3 bucket. So it is happy now. But its kinda dumb to have a Cloudfront bucket only point there. So later in the project, I will update it so the Cloudfront points to our EC2 instances for anything other than farmwork.us\/images and have that routing point to the S3 bucket. I can then make the S3 bucket only “accessible” by the Cloudfront distribution so it is a little more locked down as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Onwards and upwards!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
