Built-in Cookbook Attributes

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.

Note

Most of these attributes are available only on Linux stacks.

Most of the built-in recipes have one or more attributes files that define various settings. You can access these settings in your custom recipes and use custom JSON to override them. You typically need to access or override attributes that control the configuration of the various server technologies that are supported by AWS OpsWorks Stacks. This section summarizes those attributes. The complete attributes files, and the associated recipes and templates, are available at https://github.com/aws/opsworks-cookbooks.git.

Note

All built-in recipe attributes are default type.
