Before you start have a read over What is Amazon Cognito?
To setup this project you first need to configure an aws mobile project using the following snapshot CognitoVue.
For more information on this process see Exporting and Importing AWS Mobile Hub Projects
Once you have imported the project you will have created:
- An S3 bucket with Cloudfront for your web application.
- A Cognito pool to store your users
- An analytics project to capture metrics on your users login / failure ect.
Click on the integrate button in your aws mobile project, the download and extract the cloud config zip file, find aws-exports.js inside, and replace this file in src/ directory.
I use yarn to build and run this project.
# install dependencies
yarn install
# serve with hot reload at localhost:8080
yarn serve
# build for production with minification
yarn buildSync all the files from your dist directory up to the S3 hosting bucket within your AWS Mobile project using the following command.
aws --region ap-southeast-2 s3 sync dist/ s3://cognitovuebootstrap-hosting-mobilehub-XXXXXXXXXX/ --delete --acl public-read
To host a website on a custom URL using AWS mobile I have found some changes to the current setup. Navigating to the buckets and CDN configuration is done via the Hosting And Streaming panel in the mobile project UI.
- disable website hosting on the hosting S3 bucket
- add an Error Page which sends any 404 (not found) errors to
/index.htmlin cloudfront - enable redirect http -> https on the origin
- configure a route53 domain for your website
- configure a AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) certificate for your domain
- add an A record in route53 of type
aliaspointing to your Cloudfront distribution, then update the origin domain name to match the FQDN.
