[GO] [Python] Added DB instance of RDS with Elastic Beanstalk

Elastic Beanstalk Add an Amazon RDS DB instance to your Python application environment

If you are using RDS for the first time, use the EB Management Console to create a test environment with DB Instances (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ja_jp/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/create-deploy-python-rds. Add html # python-rds-create) and make sure the application can connect to that instance

To connect to the DB, the appropriate [driver] for your application (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ja_jp/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/create-deploy-python-rds.html#python-rds-drivers ), Load the driver into your code, and then use the environment properties provided in EB to create a connection object (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ja_jp/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/create- deploy-python-rds.html # python-rds-connect) Settings and connection codes depend on the DB engine and framework used

Add a DB instance to your environment

Select an AWS Region from the EB console
Select the environment to use in the navigation pane
Select a setting in the navigation pane
Select Edit in Database Settings category
Select the DB engine and enter your username and password
Select Apply

It takes about 10 minutes to add an EB instance Once the environment update is complete, the DB Instant host name and other connection information will be available to the application through the following environment properties:

Property name	Description	Property value
`RDS_HOSTNAME`	DB instance host name	Amazon RDS console[Connection and security]tab:[end point]
`RDS_PORT`	Ports that the DB instance allows to connect The default value depends on the DB engine	Amazon RDS console[Connection and security]tab:[port]
`RDS_DB_NAME`	EB name`ebdb`	Amazon RDS console[Setting]tab:[port]
`RDS_USETNAME`	Username set for the database	Amazon RDS console[Setting]tab:[Master user name]
`RDS_PASSWORD`	Password set for the database	Not available on Amazon RDS console

For details on setting the internal DB instance, see Add DB to EB environment. reference

Driver download

Connection to DB

EB provides connection information for the DB instance attached in the environment properties ʻOs.environ [‘VARIABLE’] to read properties and set up DB connection

Example) Django configuration file --DATABASE dictionary

import os
if ‘RDS_HOSTNAME’ in os.environ:
	DATABASES = {
		‘default’: {
			‘ENGINE’: ‘django.db.backends.mysql’,
			‘NAME’: os.environ[‘RDS_DB_NAME’],
			‘USER’: os.environ[‘RDS_USERNAME’],
			‘PASSWORD’: os.environ[‘RDS_PASSWORD’],
			‘HOST’: os.environ[‘RDS_HOSTNAME’],
			‘PORT’: os.environ[‘RDS_PORT’],
		}
	}
