How to run a command after deployment when using aws code pipeline BUT NOT aws code deploy

Question

I have a node application that I need to depoy to Elastic Beanstalk. I am using Code Pipeline to run the build and to deploy to Beanstalk, but then I need to start (npm start) the node server.

How can I run the start command on Beanstalk after the code is deployed?

Please note I am not using Code Deploy, the pipeline is deploying directly to Banstalk. Or do I need to use it (Code Deploy)?

Answer

Hello,

I'm not super familiar with Elastic Beanstalk.  But if you are using containers, you should put the `npm start` command in the [Entrypoint](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#entrypoint) script when you build your image. If your run on EC2 it seems like [.ebextensions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/ebextensions.html) is your answer.

Hope this points you in the right direction!
