Synopsis

  update-build
--build-id <value>
[--name <value>]
[--build-version <value>]
[--cli-input-json <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--build-id (string)

A unique identifier for a build to update. You can use either the build ID or ARN value.

--name (string)

A descriptive label that is associated with a build. Build names do not need to be unique.

--build-version (string)

Version information that is associated with a build or script. Version strings do not need to be unique.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI 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.

--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. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See 'aws help' for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples

To update a custom game build

The following update-build example changes the name and version information that is associated with a specified build resource. The returned build object verifies that the changes were made successfully.

aws gamelift update-build \
    --build-id build-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111 \
    --name MegaFrogRaceServer.NA.east \
    --build-version 12345.east

Output:

{
    "Build": {
        "BuildArn": "arn:aws:gamelift:us-west-2::build/build-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111",
        "BuildId": "build-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111",
        "CreationTime": 1496708916.18,
        "Name": "MegaFrogRaceServer.NA.east",
        "OperatingSystem": "AMAZON_LINUX_2",
        "SizeOnDisk": 1304924,
        "Status": "READY",
        "Version": "12345.east"
    }
}

Output

Build -> (structure)

The updated build resource.

BuildId -> (string)

A unique identifier for a build.

BuildArn -> (string)

Amazon Resource Name (ARN ) that is assigned to a GameLift build resource and uniquely identifies it. ARNs are unique across all Regions. In a GameLift build ARN, the resource ID matches the BuildId value.

Name -> (string)

A descriptive label that is associated with a build. Build names do not need to be unique. It can be set using CreateBuild or UpdateBuild .

Version -> (string)

Version information that is associated with a build or script. Version strings do not need to be unique. This value can be set using CreateBuild or UpdateBuild .

Status -> (string)

Current status of the build.

Possible build statuses include the following:

  • INITIALIZED -- A new build has been defined, but no files have been uploaded. You cannot create fleets for builds that are in this status. When a build is successfully created, the build status is set to this value.
  • READY -- The game build has been successfully uploaded. You can now create new fleets for this build.
  • FAILED -- The game build upload failed. You cannot create new fleets for this build.

SizeOnDisk -> (long)

File size of the uploaded game build, expressed in bytes. When the build status is INITIALIZED , this value is 0.

OperatingSystem -> (string)

Operating system that the game server binaries are built to run on. This value determines the type of fleet resources that you can use for this build.

CreationTime -> (timestamp)

Time stamp indicating when this data object was created. Format is a number expressed in Unix time as milliseconds (for example "1469498468.057").
