Amazon Elastic Beanstalk without Git

I am trying to deploy a nodejs application to Amazon EC2 using Amazon Elastic Beanstalk console. We have a custom repository manager and are not using Git. Is Git a prerequisite for using Beanstalk? Or can I use it with any version manager?

You don't need to use git to push your application bundle into Elastic Beanstalk. You can upload your bundle to an S3 bucket, then using either the eb command line, or the AWS CLI, first create an "application version" that points to that bundle, then update your environment with that version.

The relevant documentation for the eb command line:

And for the AWS CLI:

Yes, you can create a node.js container and upload it to your Elastic Beanstalk application instance as a zip file. You have to make sure your zip file contains the .ebextentions folder with all the required configuration.

You can find more information about the configuration of a node.js container here:

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/create_deploy_nodejs_custom_container.html

and here:

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/command-options.html#command-options-nodejs

Also, you can check out this blog on how to deploy "Ghost" (A node.js based blog) to Elastic Beanstalk by uploading the zip file:
