Let's break down the process of creating a C# console sample, writing the Dockerfile, and pushing it to ECR.
Prerequisites:
Docker installed and configured on your system
AWS account with permissions to create ECR repositories
Create a C# Console Sample
Here's a basic C# console application:
using System;
namespace BatchDemoApp
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello from AWS Batch!");
}
}
}Create a .NET project using your preferred method (IDE or dotnet new console). Add this code and save it
Write the Dockerfile
Create a file named Dockerfile in the same directory as your C# project. Here's a suitable Dockerfile:
Dockerfile
# Use a base .NET runtime image
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/runtime:6.0
# Set working directory
WORKDIR /app
# Copy project files
COPY . .
# Build the project
RUN dotnet publish -c Release -o out
# Set the entry point for the container
ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "out/BatchDemoApp.dll"]
Build the Docker Image
docker build -t my-batch-app .
Create an ECR Repository
aws ecr create-repository --repository-name my-batch-app
Authenticate to ECR
aws ecr get-login-password | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin your-aws-account-id.dkr.ecr.your-region.amazonaws.com
Tag and Push the Image
docker tag my-batch-app:latest your-aws-account-id.dkr.ecr.your-region.amazonaws.com/my-batch-app:latest
docker push your-aws-account-id.dkr.ecr.your-region.amazonaws.com/my-batch-app:latest
Now, your image is in ECR, ready for your AWS Batch job!
Explanation of the Dockerfile:
FROM: Starts with a base .NET runtime image
WORKDIR: Sets the working directory within the container.
COPY: Copies your project code into the container
RUN: Executes the command to publish your .NET application in Release mode
ENTRYPOINT: Specifies the command to run when the container starts
A simple example would be:
Here are the steps to provide a sample AWS Batch job using AWS CLI commands:
Prerequisites
An AWS account configured with AWS CLI.
Basic understanding of Docker and containerization.
Create a Compute Environment
aws batch create-compute-environment \
--compute-environment-name my-batch-compute-env \
--type MANAGED \
--state ENABLED \
--compute-resources type=EC2,minvCpus=0,maxvCpus=20,desiredvCpus=4,instanceTypes=optimal \
--service-role my-batch-service-role
Explanation:
We use a managed compute environment for automatic scaling.
Adjust instance types and vCPUs to suit your workload.
Replace my-batch-service-role with an IAM role providing AWS Batch permissions.
Create a Job Queue
aws batch create-job-queue \
--job-queue-name my-batch-job-queue \
--state ENABLED \
--priority 1 \
--compute-environment-order order=1,compute-environment=my-batch-compute-env
Build and Push Your Docker Image
This assumes you have:
A Dockerfile ready
An ECR (Elastic Container Registry) repository created
docker build -t my-batch-app .
aws ecr get-login-password | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin your-aws-account-id.dkr.ecr.your-region.amazonaws.com
docker tag my-batch-app:latest your-aws-account-id.dkr.ecr.your-region.amazonaws.com/my-batch-app:latest
docker push your-aws-account-id.dkr.ecr.your-region.amazonaws.com/my-batch-app:latest
Create a Job Definition
aws batch register-job-definition \
--job-definition-name my-batch-job-def \
--type container \
--container-properties image=your-aws-account-id.dkr.ecr.your-region.amazonaws.com/my-batch-app:latest,vcpus=2,memory=4096
Explanation:
Set image URI to your pushed Docker image
Modify vcpus and memory requirements as needed
Submit a Job
aws batch submit-job \
--job-name my-batch-job \
--job-queue my-batch-job-queue \
--job-definition my-batch-job-def
Monitor the Job
aws batch describe-jobs --jobs <job-id> # Insert job ID returned from the previous step
Clean Up
aws batch delete-job-queue --job-queue my-batch-job-queue
aws batch delete-compute-environment --compute-environment my-batch-compute-env
Important Notes
Error Handling: Include robust error handling in production cases
IAM Roles: Create appropriate roles with necessary permissions
