Options

--name (string)

The name of the infrastructure configuration.

--description (string)

The description of the infrastructure configuration.

--instance-types (list)

The instance types of the infrastructure configuration. You can specify one or more instance types to use for this build. The service will pick one of these instance types based on availability.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--instance-profile-name (string)

The instance profile to associate with the instance used to customize your Amazon EC2 AMI.

--security-group-ids (list)

The security group IDs to associate with the instance used to customize your Amazon EC2 AMI.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--subnet-id (string)

The subnet ID in which to place the instance used to customize your Amazon EC2 AMI.

--logging (structure)

The logging configuration of the infrastructure configuration.

s3Logs -> (structure)

The Amazon S3 logging configuration.

s3BucketName -> (string)

The S3 bucket in which to store the logs.

s3KeyPrefix -> (string)

The Amazon S3 path to the bucket where the logs are stored.

Shorthand Syntax:

s3Logs={s3BucketName=string,s3KeyPrefix=string}

JSON Syntax:

{
  "s3Logs": {
    "s3BucketName": "string",
    "s3KeyPrefix": "string"
  }
}

--key-pair (string)

The key pair of the infrastructure configuration. You can use this to log on to and debug the instance used to create your image.

--terminate-instance-on-failure | --no-terminate-instance-on-failure (boolean)

The terminate instance on failure setting of the infrastructure configuration. Set to false if you want Image Builder to retain the instance used to configure your AMI if the build or test phase of your workflow fails.

--sns-topic-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the SNS topic to which we send image build event notifications.

Note

EC2 Image Builder is unable to send notifications to SNS topics that are encrypted using keys from other accounts. The key that is used to encrypt the SNS topic must reside in the account that the Image Builder service runs under.

--resource-tags (map)

The metadata tags to assign to the Amazon EC2 instance that Image Builder launches during the build process. Tags are formatted as key value pairs.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

{"string": "string"
  ...}

--instance-metadata-options (structure)

The instance metadata options that you can set for the HTTP requests that pipeline builds use to launch EC2 build and test instances.

httpTokens -> (string)

Indicates whether a signed token header is required for instance metadata retrieval requests. The values affect the response as follows:

  • required – When you retrieve the IAM role credentials, version 2.0 credentials are returned in all cases.
  • optional – You can include a signed token header in your request to retrieve instance metadata, or you can leave it out. If you include it, version 2.0 credentials are returned for the IAM role. Otherwise, version 1.0 credentials are returned.

The default setting is optional .

httpPutResponseHopLimit -> (integer)

Limit the number of hops that an instance metadata request can traverse to reach its destination. The default is one hop. However, if HTTP tokens are required, container image builds need a minimum of two hops.

Shorthand Syntax:

httpTokens=string,httpPutResponseHopLimit=integer

JSON Syntax:

{
  "httpTokens": "string",
  "httpPutResponseHopLimit": integer
}

--tags (map)

The metadata tags to assign to the infrastructure configuration resource that Image Builder creates as output. Tags are formatted as key value pairs.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

{"string": "string"
  ...}

--placement (structure)

The instance placement settings that define where the instances that are launched from your image will run.

availabilityZone -> (string)

The Availability Zone where your build and test instances will launch.

tenancy -> (string)

The tenancy of the instance. An instance with a tenancy of dedicated runs on single-tenant hardware. An instance with a tenancy of host runs on a Dedicated Host.

If tenancy is set to host , then you can optionally specify one target for placement – either host ID or host resource group ARN. If automatic placement is enabled for your host, and you don’t specify any placement target, Amazon EC2 will try to find an available host for your build and test instances.

hostId -> (string)

The ID of the Dedicated Host on which build and test instances run. This only applies if tenancy is host . If you specify the host ID, you must not specify the resource group ARN. If you specify both, Image Builder returns an error.

hostResourceGroupArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the host resource group in which to launch build and test instances. This only applies if tenancy is host . If you specify the resource group ARN, you must not specify the host ID. If you specify both, Image Builder returns an error.

Shorthand Syntax:

availabilityZone=string,tenancy=string,hostId=string,hostResourceGroupArn=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "availabilityZone": "string",
  "tenancy": "default"|"dedicated"|"host",
  "hostId": "string",
  "hostResourceGroupArn": "string"
}

--client-token (string)

Unique, case-sensitive identifier you provide to ensure idempotency of the request. For more information, see Ensuring idempotency in the Amazon EC2 API Reference .

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table
  • yaml
  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64
  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .
