Step 6: Deploying an Application (CCE)

CodeArts Deploy provides visualized and automated deployment. Various deployment actions are provided to help you formulate a standard deployment process, reduce deployment costs, and improve release efficiency.

To deliver software more quickly and stably, the development team needs some self-service deployment service capabilities to reduce some subsequent maintenance work.

This section describes how Chris deploys a release package on CCE. For details about ECS-based deployment, see Step 6: Deploying an Application (ECS).

Preset Applications

There are three deployment applications preset in the sample project.

Table 1 Presetting applications

Presetting Applications

Application Description

phoenix-cd-cce

Configuring and Executing an Application

Deploy the .yaml files generated in Step 5: Building an Application in the CCE cluster one by one.

  1. Configure the application.

    1. Go to the Phoenix Mall project and choose CICD > Deploy. The built-in deployment applications of the sample project are displayed on the page.
    2. Find application phoenix-cd-cce. Click and choose Edit from the drop-down list.
    3. On the Deployment Actions tab page, complete the following configurations in each action.

      Suggestion

      Cluster Name

      Use the cluster name set when buying a CCE cluster.

      Namespace

      In this document, select default.

    4. Click the Parameters tab and set parameters.
      Table 5 Parameters

      Parameter

      Example Value

      ci_task_name

      Enter phoenix-sample-ci.

      version

      Use the value of version of the phoenix-sample-ci task.

    5. Click Save.

  2. Go to the CCE console. Locate the target cluster, click , click the Deployments tab, and verify that no record exists in the list.

    If there are records in the list, select all records, click Delete, select all resource release options, and click Yes to clear the records in the list.

  3. Return to the application list page, click in the row of the phoenix-cd-cce application, and click OK in the dialog box that is displayed to start deployment.

    If is displayed on the page, the deployment is successful. If the deployment fails, rectify the fault based on the failed action information and error information in logs.

  4. Verify the deployment result.

    1. Go to the CCE console.
    2. Locate the target cluster, click , and click the Deployments tab.

      Five records are displayed on the page. All the records are in the Running state.

    3. Click vote to go to the details page. On the Access Mode tab page, choose More > Update.

    5. Open a new browser page and enter http://ip: port number in the address box. The page is displayed successfully.

      If ip is set to the elastic IP address bound to the node in Buying and Configuring CCE. The port number is the port number recorded in 4.d.

    6. Return to the Deployments page and update result (the service port is 5001) by referring to 4.c.

      After the creation is successful, enter the node IP address and service port number in the address box of a new browser. The page shows a success message.
