Create Install Scripts

Generate installation scripts, GitLab CI configuration, and CodeBuild deployment setup for AWS CDK projects.

When to Apply

Reference this skill when:

• Setting up deployment pipelines for CDK projects
• Creating interactive install.sh scripts
• Configuring GitLab CI/CD for AWS deployments
• Setting up AWS CodeBuild for Docker image builds
• Automating CDK deployment workflows

How It Works

1. Analyze the CDK project structure
2. Generate install.sh for interactive local deployments
3. Generate .gitlab-ci.yml for GitLab CI/CD
4. Generate buildspec.yml for AWS CodeBuild
5. Configure deployment variables and secrets

Prerequisites

• AWS CDK project initialized
• GitLab repository (for CI/CD)
• AWS credentials configured
• Docker (if using CodeBuild for images)

Usage

# Run the setup script
./scripts/setup-cicd.sh

# Or trigger via agent
"Set up CI/CD for my CDK project"
"Create install scripts for deployment"
