Example 1 create an Aws code commit pipeline with Aws cloudformation

Question

Am trying to complete that tutorial on codepipeline and when I create a stack in cloud formation , using the provided appspec.yaml file, i get the error that says “ Template format error: at least one resources member must be defined” and it won’t let me upload the file.
What did I miss ? How can I resolve it please ?

Answer

AppSpec files aren't CloudFormation deployables, they're for the CodeDeploy service/agent to process. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codedeploy/latest/userguide/application-specification-files.html for more information on AppSpec files.

If the tutorial is directing you to launch a template with CloudFormation, check you're using the right file; a CloudFormation template will have `AWSTemplateFormatVersion` specified near the top of the file, and `Resources` will be a map rather than a list.
