Editing Hosting A PHP Web Application On AWS (section)

=== EB CLI ===

==== Installing eb cli on Mac OS ====

Use pip and not homebrew.

==== Updating app source without Git ====

First initialize the eb environment with 

<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
$ eb init
</syntaxhighlight>

This will prompt for properties of the EB application and environment, and then store the configuration in `./.elasticbeanstalk/config.yml`

Edit the config file with the path of the zip file to use for updating the app:

<syntaxhighlight lang="yaml">
deploy:
  path/to/app-source.zip
</syntaxhighlight>

Zip the project with 

<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
$ zip ../app-source.zip -r * .[^.]*
</syntaxhighlight>

Then from the directory where `.elasticbeanstalk/` is located, deploy with:

<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
$ eb deploy
</syntaxhighlight>
