Install Dependencies (create-deployment) - AWS OpsWorks

Install Dependencies (create-deployment)

Important

AWS OpsWorks Stacks is no longer accepting new customers. Existing customers will be able to use the OpsWorks console, API, CLI, and CloudFormation resources as normal until May 26, 2024, at which time they will be discontinued. To prepare for this transition, we recommend you transition your stacks to AWS Systems Manager as soon as possible. For more information, see AWS OpsWorks Stacks End of Life FAQs and Migrating your AWS OpsWorks Stacks applications to AWS Systems Manager Application Manager.

Use the create-deployment command to execute stack commands and deployment commands. The following example runs the update_dependencies stack command to update the dependencies on a stack's instances.

aws opsworks --region us-west-1 create-deployment --stack-id 935450cc-61e0-4b03-a3e0-160ac817d2bb --command "{\"Name\":\"install_dependencies\"}"

The command argument takes a JSON object with a Name parameter whose value specifies the command name, install_dependencies for this example. Notice that the " characters in the JSON object are all escaped. Otherwise, the command might return an error that the JSON is invalid.

The command returns a deployment ID, which you can use to identify the command for other CLI commands such as describe-commands.

{ "DeploymentId": "aef5b255-8604-4928-81b3-9b0187f962ff" }
