Welcome to another blog post over here at learning HQ.
Firstly I'd like to list where I got to in terms of setting up the static site via cloudfront, so here goes:
- Pelican installed is installed on my local network on the Raspberry Pi4
- An AWS S3 bucket has been created to house the serve the static content generated by Pelican
- It is possible to write articles and issue the
make s3_uploadcommand to drop the files in the S3 bucket - Cloudfront was added to serve the content at the AWS Edge locations - specifically for America and Europe only at this stage.
- a certificate was generated for HTTPS on AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) and verified by setting the DNS entries for both iainrawlings.com and www.iainrawlings.com
- Presently when visiting the couldfront URL
https://d29wvgb72tkraq.cloudfront.net/a HTTP 403 error is generated forbidding access.
It's early in the day, so we'll see what the day brings in terms of a resolution.
