What is @aws-sdk/client-codebuild?
@aws-sdk/client-codebuild is a part of the AWS SDK for JavaScript, which allows developers to interact with AWS CodeBuild, a fully managed continuous integration service that compiles source code, runs tests, and produces software packages that are ready to deploy.
What are @aws-sdk/client-codebuild's main functionalities?
Start a Build
This feature allows you to start a new build for a specified CodeBuild project. The code sample demonstrates how to initiate a build using the StartBuildCommand.
const { CodeBuildClient, StartBuildCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-codebuild');
const client = new CodeBuildClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const params = {
projectName: 'my-project',
};
const run = async () => {
try {
const data = await client.send(new StartBuildCommand(params));
console.log('Build started:', data);
} catch (err) {
console.error('Error starting build:', err);
}
};
run();
List Builds
This feature allows you to list all the builds in your AWS account. The code sample demonstrates how to retrieve and print the list of build IDs using the ListBuildsCommand.
const { CodeBuildClient, ListBuildsCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-codebuild');
const client = new CodeBuildClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const run = async () => {
try {
const data = await client.send(new ListBuildsCommand({}));
console.log('Builds:', data.ids);
} catch (err) {
console.error('Error listing builds:', err);
}
};
run();
Get Build Details
This feature allows you to get detailed information about specific builds. The code sample demonstrates how to retrieve details for specified build IDs using the BatchGetBuildsCommand.
const { CodeBuildClient, BatchGetBuildsCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-codebuild');
const client = new CodeBuildClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const params = {
ids: ['build-id-1', 'build-id-2'],
};
const run = async () => {
try {
const data = await client.send(new BatchGetBuildsCommand(params));
console.log('Build details:', data.builds);
} catch (err) {
console.error('Error getting build details:', err);
}
};
run();
Other packages similar to @aws-sdk/client-codebuild
aws-sdk
The 'aws-sdk' package is the older version of the AWS SDK for JavaScript. It provides a comprehensive set of tools for interacting with AWS services, including CodeBuild. However, it is not modular like the '@aws-sdk/client-codebuild' package, which means it can be bulkier and less efficient for applications that only need specific services.
serverless
The 'serverless' package is a framework for building and deploying serverless applications. While it is not specifically focused on CodeBuild, it provides integrations with AWS services, including CodeBuild, to facilitate CI/CD pipelines. It offers a higher-level abstraction compared to '@aws-sdk/client-codebuild'.
aws-cdk
The 'aws-cdk' (AWS Cloud Development Kit) allows developers to define cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages. It includes constructs for CodeBuild projects and pipelines, providing a higher-level, more abstract way to manage CI/CD compared to the '@aws-sdk/client-codebuild' package.
