When we create a pipeline on AWS we can provide a Github repo, let's say the repo name is: "RepoName/exampleProject" and in this repo, we have many folders. So can we provide a subfolder from this repo like "RepoName/exampleProject/subFolder" to repo section in add source stage in AWS?

Since we could have two Folders in this repo like Laravel for the backend and a separate project Vue Js for the frontend.

No. Not for GitHub or AWS CodeCommit. Basically, its a no for any git provider. What your are providing here is a / and the you provide branch.

These details are required to git clone the source code which will be transition to next stage. When you do a git clone, you clone the entire repository and not any specific folder.

If your source files are on S3, it will be a different case. S3 is not a git based version control. You can download specific folder from S3.

  • so is there any other way to do that without uploading your code to S3? – Sohaib Jun 02 '20 at 17:32
  • It depends on how your code is organized and how you build/deploy it. You can move frontend code into another repo altogether, or can use existing CodePipeline and just ignore frontend (or backend) while build/deploying respective services. – saurabh14292 Jun 02 '20 at 18:03
