create-container-service-deployment¶

Description¶

Creates a deployment for your Amazon Lightsail container service.

A deployment specifies the containers that will be launched on the container service and their settings, such as the ports to open, the environment variables to apply, and the launch command to run. It also specifies the container that will serve as the public endpoint of the deployment and its settings, such as the HTTP or HTTPS port to use, and the health check configuration.

You can deploy containers to your container service using container images from a public registry such as Amazon ECR Public, or from your local machine. For more information, see Creating container images for your Amazon Lightsail container services in the Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide .

[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--service-name (string)

The name of the container service for which to create the deployment.

--containers (map)

An object that describes the settings of the containers that will be launched on the container service.

key -> (string)

value -> (structure)

Describes the settings of a container that will be launched, or that is launched, to an Amazon Lightsail container service.

image -> (string)

The name of the image used for the container.

Container images sourced from your Lightsail container service, that are registered and stored on your service, start with a colon (: ). For example, if your container service name is container-service-1 , the container image label is mystaticsite , and you want to use the third (3 ) version of the registered container image, then you should specify :container-service-1.mystaticsite.3 . To use the latest version of a container image, specify latest instead of a version number (for example, :container-service-1.mystaticsite.latest ). Lightsail will automatically use the highest numbered version of the registered container image.

Container images sourced from a public registry like Docker Hub don’t start with a colon. For example, nginx:latest or nginx .

command -> (list)

The launch command for the container.

(string)

environment -> (map)

unhealthyThreshold -> (integer)

The number of consecutive health check failures required before moving the container to the Unhealthy state. The default value is 2 .

timeoutSeconds -> (integer)

The amount of time, in seconds, during which no response means a failed health check. You can specify between 2 and 60 seconds. The default value is 2 .

intervalSeconds -> (integer)

The approximate interval, in seconds, between health checks of an individual container. You can specify between 5 and 300 seconds. The default value is 5 .

path -> (string)

JSON Syntax:

{
  "containerName": "string",

    "unhealthyThreshold": integer,
    "timeoutSeconds": integer,
    "intervalSeconds": integer,
    "path": "string",
    "successCodes": "string"
  }
}

--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.
