Great. But I get this error when the code tries to build

YAML_FILE_ERROR Message: Unknown runtime named 'docker'. This build image has the following runtimes: dotnet, golang, java, nodejs, php, python, ruby

So it seems like in version 5 they have removed "Docker: 19" and from now onwards default docker runtime will be available only. To make this code work you can:

  • Either change the runtime to v4 or less (the article was written at the time when v3 was the latest available). dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/i/...
  • Or remove this 👇🏽 (if you are using v5) 
install:
    runtime-versions:
      docker: latest

It worked, but having another issue, the build break when it tries to run this

$(aws ecr get-login --region $AWS_DEFAULT_REGION --no-include-email)

The error message is:
An error occurred (AccessDeniedException) when calling the GetAuthorizationToken operation: User: arn:aws:sts:::assumed-role/codebuild-main--build-service-role/AWSCodeBuild--5c2c-4dff-a514- is not authorized to perform: ecr:GetAuthorizationToken on resource: *

You have probably figured it out already. But for newer folks. You have to replace:
$(aws ecr get-login --region $AWS_DEFAULT_REGION --no-include-email)
with:
"- aws ecr get-login-password | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin $YOUR-AWS-Repostitory-URI"

Example buildspec.yml file:

What have you selected as "Runtime" and "Image"?

I have just setup another pipeline. I made sure I followed your steps exactly as it is. And I still have the same error.

version: 0.2
phases:
install:
runtime-versions:
docker: 19
pre_build:
commands:
- $(aws ecr get-login --region $AWS_DEFAULT_REGION --no-include-email)
- REPOSITORY_URI=780571656781.dkr.ecr.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/spurts-app
- COMMIT_HASH=$(echo $CODEBUILD_RESOLVED_SOURCE_VERSION | cut -c 1-7)
- IMAGE_TAG=${COMMIT_HASH:=latest}
build:
commands:
- docker build -t $REPOSITORY_URI:latest -f Dockerfile .
- docker tag $REPOSITORY_URI:latest $REPOSITORY_URI:$IMAGE_TAG
post_build:
commands:
- docker push $REPOSITORY_URI:latest
- docker push $REPOSITORY_URI:$IMAGE_TAG
- printf '[{"name":"spurts-container","imageUri":"%s"}]' $REPOSITORY_URI:$IMAGE_TAG > imagedefinitions.json
artifacts:
files: imagedefinitions.json

This is my Buildspec file

I removed the entire install section. Worked like a charm.

I need to setup a staging environment for me and my team to test code before we ship to production. Is there a way to add this as a step in this current process or do I need to setup a separate pipeline with the staging branch as a source?

A separate environment with a separate pipeline.
