How to setup Serverless server on AWS (User Management)?

Prerequisite

- Register an AWS account

Note: AWS has given a very details step by step guide. This is for my own note taking and reference

Create an Amazon Cognito User Pool

• Login to AWS website, select "Services" menu and "Cognito" sub menu under the "Security, Identity & Compliance" section.

• Click on "Manage your User Pools" button
• Click on "Click here to create a user pool" link
• Provide a name for user pool such as "BeezPool", select "Review Defaults".
• Click on "Create Pool", user pool with new pool id is created.

Create an Amazon Cognito User Pool

• Select "App Clients" in the "General settings" section of the left menu
• Click "Add an app client" hyperlink
• Enter the App client name such as "BeezWebApp"
• Uncheck "Generate client secret" checkbox
• Click on "Create app client" button
• Newly generated "App client id" is generated

Update the config.js File in Your Website Bucket

• Based on the source code use in previous tutorial, https://github.com/awslabs/aws-serverless-workshops/archive/master.zip, alter /js/config.js file.
• Click on the "General Settings" of the left menu, you can find the "Pool id" in the pool details page
• Click on the "App Client Settings" of the left menu,  you can find the "App Client id" in the app client details page
• Alter /js/config.js with the user pool id and app client id as shown below. 

window._config = {
    cognito: {
        userPoolId: 'XX-XXXXXXXXX-X_XXXXXXXXX', // e.g. us-east-2_uXboG5pAb
        userPoolClientId: 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX', // e.g. 25ddkmj4v6hfsfvruhpfi7n4hv
        region: 'XX-XXXXXXXXX-X' // e.g. us-east-2
    },
    api: {
        invokeUrl: '' // e.g. https://rc7nyt4tql.execute-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/prod',
    }
};
 

• Open the Amazon S3 console by visiting https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/.
• Select "beez-firstname-lastname" website bucket that has been created in the previous tutorial
• Browse to the js prefix, click on the "Upload" button, upload /js/config.js that we have edited in the previous step to overwrite config.js file
