# Guidance for Live Streaming on AWS with Amazon S3

Live streaming on AWS with Amazon S3 automatically configures AWS Elemental MediaLive, Amazon S3 and Amazon CloudFront to ingest, encode, package and deliver a single source live stream through the AWS Cloud. The guidance provides 3 Encoding profiles to support 1080p through 288p HTTP live streaming (HLS) outputs. For more details see the [guidance home page](https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/live-streaming-on-aws/).

The guidance was developed using the [AWS Cloud Development Kit]() and also leverages a AWS Solutions Construct [CloudFrontToS3](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/solutions/latest/constructs/aws-cloudfront-s3.html)

## Architecture Overview
![Architecture](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aws-solutions-library-samples/live-streaming-on-aws-with-amazon-s3/main/architecture.png)

## Input Options
The guidance supports RTP Push, RTMP push, HLS and [AWS Elemental Link](https://aws.amazon.com/medialive/features/link/) input types. For more detialed instructions see the implementation guide on the [guidance home page](https://aws.amazon.com/guidances/live-streaming-on-aws/).

## Encoding Profiles:

* HD-1080p profile: 1920x1080, 1280x720, 960x540, 768x432, 640x360, 512x288
* HD-720p profile: 1280x720, 960x540, 768x432, 640x360, 512x288
* SD-540p profile:  960x540, 768x432, 640x360, 512x288

## Deployment

### Prerequisites:
* [AWS Command Line Interface](https://aws.amazon.com/cli/)
* Node.js 12.x or later
* AWS CDK 1.102.0

The are 2 options for deploying the guidance: using the CDK deployment tools or running the build script to generate a CFN template and the packaged lambda code.

### Options 1: Deploying through the CDK.
This options simply flollows the standard CDK deployment process. You will need to run `cdk bootstrap` before you run cdk deply the first time to setup the cdk resource in your AWS account. Details on using the CDK can be found [here].

1. Download or clone the repo and make the required changes to the source code.
2. installl the dependecies for the lambda function and construct.
3. then run `cdk deploy` (first time use you will need to run `cdk bootstrap` first)

```
cd ./source/custom-resource
npm install --production
cd ../constructs
npm install 
cdk bootstrap //if you havent already done so.
cdk deploy
```

### Option 2: Generate a CloudFormation template.
The CloudFormation template (generated by the CDK) includes a lambda backed custom resource to configure MediaLive and create a UUID. To launch the guidance the Lambda source code has to be deployed to an Amazon S3 bucket in the region you intend to deploy the guidance.

### 1. Clone the repo
Download or clone the repo and make the required changes to the source code.

### 2. Running unit tests for customization
Run unit tests to make sure added customization passes the tests:
```
cd ./deployment
chmod +x ./run-unit-tests.sh && ./run-unit-tests.sh
```

### 3. Create an Amazon S3 Bucket
The CloudFormation template is configured to pull the Lambda deployment packages from Amazon S3 bucket in the region the template is being launched in. Create a bucket in the desired region with the region name appended to the name of the bucket. eg: for us-east-1 create a bucket named: `my-bucket-us-east-1`
```
aws s3 mb s3://my-bucket-us-east-1
```

### 4. Create the deployment packages
Build the distributable:
```
chmod +x ./build-s3-dist.sh
./build-s3-dist.sh <my-bucket> live-streaming-on-aws-with-amazon-s3 <version>
```

> **Notes**: The _build-s3-dist_ script expects the bucket name as one of its parameters. This value should not have the region suffix (remove the -us-east-1)

Ensure that you are owner of the AWS S3 bucket. 
```
aws s3api head-bucket --bucket my-bucket-us-east-1 --expected-bucket-owner YOUR-AWS-ACCOUNT-NUMBER
```

Deploy the distributable to the Amazon S3 bucket in your account:
```
aws s3 sync ./regional-s3-assets/ s3://my-bucket-us-east-1/live-streaming-on-aws-with-amazon-s3/<version>/ 
aws s3 sync ./global-s3-assets/ s3://my-bucket-us-east-1/live-streaming-on-aws-with-amazon-s3/<version>/ 
```

### 5. Launch the CloudFormation template.
* Get the link of the live-streaming-on-aws-with-amazon-s3.template uploaded to your Amazon S3 bucket.
* Deploy the guidance.

## Deploying with minimum permissions

When deploying this guidance you may have a DevOps operator IAM user that deploys this CloudFormation template. The json file located at the following directory is the minimum IAM permissions that an AWS IAM user needs to be able to deploy the CloudFormation template successfully.

`deployment/min_user_iam_deploy.json`
