AWS CLI Top 8 ECS Command
Here is my top 10 command used with aws ecs
First of all, you NEED tab completion.
No one can remember that long stuff and type it correctly all the time.
Go get it here.
1. See the cluster
aws ecs list-clusters
2. What’s running?
aws ecs describe-tasks --cluster <cluster_name> --tasks <hash>
3. Oh, How do I Get the Task hash?
aws ecs list-tasks --cluster <cluster_name>
4. What’s the services we have?
aws ecs list-services --cluster <cluster_name>
5. What’s inside that services
aws ecs describe-services \
--cluster <cluster_name> \
--services <service_name>
--cluster <cluster_name> \
--services <service_name>
6. See my Task definition
aws ecs list-task-definitions
7. What’s in that Task Definition?
aws ecs describe-task-definition --task-definition <task_def_name>
Note: no need to be specific with version like my-task-def:25 can be task definition ‘family’ name i.e. my-task-def
8. Show me how to input that command
aws ecs some-command help
See you then !
