JSON Syntax:

{
  "Name": "string",
  "Version": "string"
}

--chef-configuration (structure)

A ChefConfiguration object that specifies whether to enable Berkshelf and the Berkshelf version on Chef 11.10 stacks. For more information, see Create a New Stack .

ManageBerkshelf -> (boolean)

Whether to enable Berkshelf.

BerkshelfVersion -> (string)

The Berkshelf version.

Shorthand Syntax:

ManageBerkshelf=boolean,BerkshelfVersion=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "ManageBerkshelf": true|false,
  "BerkshelfVersion": "string"
}

--use-custom-cookbooks | --no-use-custom-cookbooks (boolean)

Whether the stack uses custom cookbooks.

--custom-cookbooks-source (structure)

Contains the information required to retrieve an app or cookbook from a repository. For more information, see Adding Apps or Cookbooks and Recipes .

Type -> (string)

The repository type.

Url -> (string)

The source URL. The following is an example of an Amazon S3 source URL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/opsworks-demo-bucket/opsworks_cookbook_demo.tar.gz .

Username -> (string)

This parameter depends on the repository type.

  • For Amazon S3 bundles, set Username to the appropriate IAM access key ID.

  • For HTTP bundles, Git repositories, and Subversion repositories, set Username to the user name.

Password -> (string)

When included in a request, the parameter depends on the repository type.

  • For Amazon S3 bundles, set Password to the appropriate IAM secret access key.

  • For HTTP bundles and Subversion repositories, set Password to the password.

For more information on how to safely handle IAM credentials, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-access-keys-best-practices.html .

In responses, AWS OpsWorks Stacks returns *****FILTERED***** instead of the actual value.

SshKey -> (string)

In requests, the repository’s SSH key.

In responses, AWS OpsWorks Stacks returns *****FILTERED***** instead of the actual value.

Revision -> (string)

The application’s version. AWS OpsWorks Stacks enables you to easily deploy new versions of an application. One of the simplest approaches is to have branches or revisions in your repository that represent different versions that can potentially be deployed.

Shorthand Syntax:

Type=string,Url=string,Username=string,Password=string,SshKey=string,Revision=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "Type": "git"|"svn"|"archive"|"s3",
  "Url": "string",
  "Username": "string",
  "Password": "string",
  "SshKey": "string",
  "Revision": "string"
}

--default-ssh-key-name (string)

A default Amazon EC2 key-pair name. The default value is none . If you specify a key-pair name, AWS OpsWorks Stacks installs the public key on the instance and you can use the private key with an SSH client to log in to the instance. For more information, see Using SSH to Communicate with an Instance and Managing SSH Access . You can override this setting by specifying a different key pair, or no key pair, when you create an instance .

--default-root-device-type (string)

The default root device type. This value is used by default for all instances in the stack, but you can override it when you create an instance. For more information, see Storage for the Root Device .

Possible values:

  • ebs

  • instance-store

--use-opsworks-security-groups | --no-use-opsworks-security-groups (boolean)

Whether to associate the AWS OpsWorks Stacks built-in security groups with the stack’s layers.

AWS OpsWorks Stacks provides a standard set of built-in security groups, one for each layer, which are associated with layers by default. UseOpsworksSecurityGroups allows you to provide your own custom security groups instead of using the built-in groups. UseOpsworksSecurityGroups has the following settings:

  • True - AWS OpsWorks Stacks automatically associates the appropriate built-in security group with each layer (default setting). You can associate additional security groups with a layer after you create it, but you cannot delete the built-in security group.

  • False - AWS OpsWorks Stacks does not associate built-in security groups with layers. You must create appropriate EC2 security groups and associate a security group with each layer that you create. However, you can still manually associate a built-in security group with a layer on. Custom security groups are required only for those layers that need custom settings.

For more information, see Create a New Stack .

--agent-version (string)

The default AWS OpsWorks Stacks agent version. You have the following options:

  • Auto-update - Set this parameter to LATEST . AWS OpsWorks Stacks automatically installs new agent versions on the stack’s instances as soon as they are available.

  • Fixed version - Set this parameter to your preferred agent version. To update the agent version, you must edit the stack configuration and specify a new version. AWS OpsWorks Stacks then automatically installs that version on the stack’s instances.

The default setting is LATEST . To specify an agent version, you must use the complete version number, not the abbreviated number shown on the console. For a list of available agent version numbers, call DescribeAgentVersions . AgentVersion cannot be set to Chef 12.2.

Note

You can also specify an agent version when you create or update an instance, which overrides the stack’s default setting.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
