Feature Request: beanstalk supplement about beanstalker HOT 5 CLOSED

It certainly looks interesting.

I'm almost giving up in configuration (too many small details), but let me ask: Do the Configuration Files Feature support it?

from beanstalker.

The Configuration Files, while looking very cool, don't support it. Those are more for customizing an individual instance upon initialization.

yeah, it looked like sorting out the environmentId, environmentName was a pain. Do know however that there are people out there using it heavily who are thankful for your contributions to the community. :)

The original goal for Beanstalker is to add value in Maven Projects.

While I admit this is a bit offside, I'd like to ask you if you see any source code which could work as a starting point, or a high-level desc (in terms of goals and config options)?

I think carrot-garden once wrote an EC2 Plugin. Isn't it more appropriate?

Aldrin:

thanks for brining this up:
https://github.com/carrot-garden/carrot-maven/tree/master/carrot-maven-aws-plugin

I got tired of beanstalk, and I use carrot-maven-aws-plugin
to bring up / manage my own replacement for beanstalk

cheers,

Andrei.

I think it's best to close this feature request as wontfix

In the time since I posted, Amazon have added features to beanstalk that allow you to customize software on an instance and resources associated with an application. This option is a nice standard way to do it, no need to build a custom maven impelementation. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/environment-resources.html

They have also released an alternative to beanstalk called AWS OpsWorks: http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2013/02/aws-opsworks-flexible-application-management-in-the-cloud.html
