This section introduces the AWS CloudFormation resources, transform, and hook designed to work with CodeDeploy deployments. For a walkthrough of creating a stack update managed by the AWS CloudFormation hook for CodeDeploy, see Create an Amazon ECS blue/green deployment through AWS CloudFormation
NoteAWS CloudFormation hooks are part of the AWS CloudFormation components for AWS and are different from CodeDeploy lifecycle event hooks.
In addition to the other methods available to you in CodeDeploy, you can use AWS CloudFormation templates to perform the following tasks:
Create applications.
Create deployment groups and specify a target revision.
Create deployment configurations.
Create Amazon EC2 instances.
AWS CloudFormation is a service that helps you model and set up your AWS resources using templates. An AWS CloudFormation template is a text file whose format complies with the JSON standard. You create a template that describes all of the AWS resources you want, and AWS CloudFormation takes care of provisioning and configuring those resources for you.
For more information, see What is AWS CloudFormation? and Working with AWS CloudFormation templates in AWS CloudFormation User Guide.
If you plan to use AWS CloudFormation templates that are compatible with CodeDeploy in your organization, as an administrator, you must grant access to AWS CloudFormation and to the AWS services and actions on which AWS CloudFormation depends. To grant permissions to create applications, deployment groups, and deployment configurations, add the following policy to the permission set of the users who will work with AWS CloudFormation:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"cloudformation:*"
],
"Resource": "*"
}
]
}
For more information about policies, see the following topics:
The following table shows the actions an AWS CloudFormation template can perform on your behalf and includes links to more information about the AWS resource types and their property types you can add to an AWS CloudFormation template.
