create-host

Description

Creates a resource that represents the infrastructure where a third-party provider is installed. The host is used when you create connections to an installed third-party provider type, such as GitHub Enterprise Server. You create one host for all connections to that provider.

Note

A host created through the CLI or the SDK is in PENDING status by default. You can make its status AVAILABLE by setting up the host in the console.

Options

--name (string)

The name of the host to be created.

--provider-type (string)

The name of the installed provider to be associated with your connection. The host resource represents the infrastructure where your provider type is installed. The valid provider type is GitHub Enterprise Server.

Possible values:

  • Bitbucket
  • GitHub
  • GitHubEnterpriseServer
  • GitLab
  • GitLabSelfManaged

--provider-endpoint (string)

The endpoint of the infrastructure to be represented by the host after it is created.

--vpc-configuration (structure)

The VPC configuration to be provisioned for the host. A VPC must be configured and the infrastructure to be represented by the host must already be connected to the VPC.

VpcId -> (string)

The ID of the Amazon VPC connected to the infrastructure where your provider type is installed.

SubnetIds -> (list)

The ID of the subnet or subnets associated with the Amazon VPC connected to the infrastructure where your provider type is installed.

(string)

SecurityGroupIds -> (list)

The ID of the security group or security groups associated with the Amazon VPC connected to the infrastructure where your provider type is installed.

(string)

TlsCertificate -> (string)

The value of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificate associated with the infrastructure where your provider type is installed.

Shorthand Syntax:

VpcId=string,SubnetIds=string,string,SecurityGroupIds=string,string,TlsCertificate=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "VpcId": "string",
  "SubnetIds": ["string", ...],
  "SecurityGroupIds": ["string", ...],
  "TlsCertificate": "string"
}

--tags (list)

Tags for the host to be created.

(structure)

A tag is a key-value pair that is used to manage the resource.

This tag is available for use by Amazon Web Services services that support tags.

Key -> (string)

The tag's key.

Value -> (string)

The tag's value.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--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.

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.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

  • 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.

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 .

To create a host

The following create-host example shows how to create a host to represent the endpoint for the infrastructure where your third-party provider is installed. This example creates a host where the third-party installed provider is GitHub Enterprise Server.

A host created through the AWS CLI is in Pending status by default. After you create a host with the CLI, use the console or the CLI to set up the host to make its status Available.

aws codestar-connections create-host \
    --name MyHost \
    --provider-type GitHubEnterpriseServer \
    --provider-endpoint "https://my-instance.dev"

Output:

{
    "HostArn": "arn:aws:codestar-connections:us-east-1:123456789012:host/My-Host-28aef605"
}

For more information, see Create a host (CLI) in the Developer Tools console User Guide.

Output

HostArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the host to be created.

Tags -> (list)

Tags for the created host.

(structure)

A tag is a key-value pair that is used to manage the resource.

This tag is available for use by Amazon Web Services services that support tags.

Key -> (string)

The tag's key.

Value -> (string)

The tag's value.
