Currently, the way Docker containers are deployed on AWS is basically having them run on an EC2 instance (with public IP 3.87.30.85). This means that each service occupies a unique port on the machine. Below is a list of running services and the ports they are using.
| Service | Port |
|---|---|
| Backend offline | 5000 |
First, download the key pair file DIAPER-test-key.pem and ssh into the EC2 instance using
ssh -i /path/to/DIAPER-test-key.pem ec2-user@3.87.30.85 |
Then, pull your Docker image and other relevant file from GitHub
git |
Once pulled, navigate to the project folder you just uploaded and run the Docker as you would do locally. If your service is blocking, do the following
ctrl-z bg disown -h |
Then you can log out and the service will continue running on the EC2 instance.
