Overview
An API client for AWS Step Functions. To construct a client, you need to configure a :region
and :credentials
.
states = Aws::States::Client.new(
region: region_name,
credentials: credentials,
# ...
)
See #initialize for a full list of supported configuration options.
Region
You can configure a default region in the following locations:
ENV['AWS_REGION']
Aws.config[:region]
Go here for a list of supported regions.
Credentials
Default credentials are loaded automatically from the following locations:
ENV['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID']
andENV['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY']
Aws.config[:credentials]
- The shared credentials ini file at
~/.aws/credentials
(more information) - From an instance profile when running on EC2
You can also construct a credentials object from one of the following classes:
Alternatively, you configure credentials with :access_key_id
and
:secret_access_key
:
# load credentials from disk
creds = YAML.load(File.read('/path/to/secrets'))
Aws::States::Client.new(
access_key_id: creds['access_key_id'],
secret_access_key: creds['secret_access_key']
)
Always load your credentials from outside your application. Avoid configuring credentials statically and never commit them to source control.

Instance Method Details
#create_activity(options = {}) ⇒ Types::CreateActivityOutput
Creates an activity. An activity is a task that you write in any programming language and host on any machine that has access to AWS Step Functions. Activities must poll Step Functions using the GetActivityTask
API action and respond using SendTask*
API actions. This function lets Step Functions know the existence of your activity and returns an identifier for use in a state machine and when polling from the activity.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes. CreateActivity
is an idempotent API. Subsequent requests won’t create a duplicate resource if it was already created. CreateActivity
's idempotency check is based on the activity name
. If a following request has different tags
values, Step Functions will ignore these differences and treat it as an idempotent request of the previous. In this case, tags
will not be updated, even if they are different.
#create_state_machine(options = {}) ⇒ Types::CreateStateMachineOutput
Creates a state machine. A state machine consists of a collection of states that can do work (Task
states), determine to which states to transition next (Choice
states), stop an execution with an error (Fail
states), and so on. State machines are specified using a JSON-based, structured language. For more information, see Amazon States Language in the AWS Step Functions User Guide.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes. CreateStateMachine
is an idempotent API. Subsequent requests won’t create a duplicate resource if it was already created. CreateStateMachine
's idempotency check is based on the state machine name
, definition
, type
, LoggingConfiguration
and TracingConfiguration
. If a following request has a different roleArn
or tags
, Step Functions will ignore these differences and treat it as an idempotent request of the previous. In this case, roleArn
and tags
will not be updated, even if they are different.
#delete_activity(options = {}) ⇒ Struct
Deletes an activity.
#delete_state_machine(options = {}) ⇒ Struct
Deletes a state machine. This is an asynchronous operation: It sets the state machine's status to DELETING
and begins the deletion process.
For EXPRESS
state machines, the deletion will happen eventually (usually less than a minute). Running executions may emit logs after DeleteStateMachine
API is called.
#describe_activity(options = {}) ⇒ Types::DescribeActivityOutput
Describes an activity.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.
#describe_execution(options = {}) ⇒ Types::DescribeExecutionOutput
Describes an execution.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.
This API action is not supported by EXPRESS
state machines.
#describe_state_machine(options = {}) ⇒ Types::DescribeStateMachineOutput
Describes a state machine.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.
#describe_state_machine_for_execution(options = {}) ⇒ Types::DescribeStateMachineForExecutionOutput
Describes the state machine associated with a specific execution.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.
This API action is not supported by EXPRESS
state machines.
#get_activity_task(options = {}) ⇒ Types::GetActivityTaskOutput
Used by workers to retrieve a task (with the specified activity ARN) which has been scheduled for execution by a running state machine. This initiates a long poll, where the service holds the HTTP connection open and responds as soon as a task becomes available (i.e. an execution of a task of this type is needed.) The maximum time the service holds on to the request before responding is 60 seconds. If no task is available within 60 seconds, the poll returns a taskToken
with a null string.
Workers should set their client side socket timeout to at least 65 seconds (5 seconds higher than the maximum time the service may hold the poll request). Polling with GetActivityTask
can cause latency in some implementations. See Avoid Latency When Polling for Activity Tasks in the Step Functions Developer Guide.
#get_execution_history(options = {}) ⇒ Types::GetExecutionHistoryOutput
Returns the history of the specified execution as a list of events. By default, the results are returned in ascending order of the timeStamp
of the events. Use the reverseOrder
parameter to get the latest events first.
If nextToken
is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken
is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged. Each pagination token expires after 24 hours. Using an expired pagination token will return an HTTP 400 InvalidToken error.
This API action is not supported by EXPRESS
state machines.
#list_activities(options = {}) ⇒ Types::ListActivitiesOutput
Lists the existing activities.
If nextToken
is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken
is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged. Each pagination token expires after 24 hours. Using an expired pagination token will return an HTTP 400 InvalidToken error.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.
#list_executions(options = {}) ⇒ Types::ListExecutionsOutput
Lists the executions of a state machine that meet the filtering criteria. Results are sorted by time, with the most recent execution first.
If nextToken
is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken
is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged. Each pagination token expires after 24 hours. Using an expired pagination token will return an HTTP 400 InvalidToken error.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.
This API action is not supported by EXPRESS
state machines.
#list_state_machines(options = {}) ⇒ Types::ListStateMachinesOutput
Lists the existing state machines.
If nextToken
is returned, there are more results available. The value of nextToken
is a unique pagination token for each page. Make the call again using the returned token to retrieve the next page. Keep all other arguments unchanged. Each pagination token expires after 24 hours. Using an expired pagination token will return an HTTP 400 InvalidToken error.
This operation is eventually consistent. The results are best effort and may not reflect very recent updates and changes.
#list_tags_for_resource(options = {}) ⇒ Types::ListTagsForResourceOutput
List tags for a given resource.
Tags may only contain Unicode letters, digits, white space, or these symbols: _ . : / = + - @
.
#send_task_failure(options = {}) ⇒ Struct
Used by activity workers and task states using the callback pattern to report that the task identified by the taskToken
failed.
#send_task_heartbeat(options = {}) ⇒ Struct
Used by activity workers and task states using the callback pattern to report to Step Functions that the task represented by the specified taskToken
is still making progress. This action resets the Heartbeat
clock. The Heartbeat
threshold is specified in the state machine's Amazon States Language definition (HeartbeatSeconds
). This action does not in itself create an event in the execution history. However, if the task times out, the execution history contains an ActivityTimedOut
entry for activities, or a TaskTimedOut
entry for for tasks using the job run or callback pattern.
The Timeout
of a task, defined in the state machine's Amazon States Language definition, is its maximum allowed duration, regardless of the number of SendTaskHeartbeat requests received. Use HeartbeatSeconds
to configure the timeout interval for heartbeats.
#send_task_success(options = {}) ⇒ Struct
Used by activity workers and task states using the callback pattern to report that the task identified by the taskToken
completed successfully.
#start_execution(options = {}) ⇒ Types::StartExecutionOutput
Starts a state machine execution.
StartExecution
is idempotent. If StartExecution
is called with the same name and input as a running execution, the call will succeed and return the same response as the original request. If the execution is closed or if the input is different, it will return a 400 ExecutionAlreadyExists
error. Names can be reused after 90 days.
#stop_execution(options = {}) ⇒ Types::StopExecutionOutput
Stops an execution.
This API action is not supported by EXPRESS
state machines.
#tag_resource(options = {}) ⇒ Struct
Add a tag to a Step Functions resource.
An array of key-value pairs. For more information, see Using Cost Allocation Tags in the AWS Billing and Cost Management User Guide, and Controlling Access Using IAM Tags.
Tags may only contain Unicode letters, digits, white space, or these symbols: _ . : / = + - @
.
#untag_resource(options = {}) ⇒ Struct
Remove a tag from a Step Functions resource
#update_state_machine(options = {}) ⇒ Types::UpdateStateMachineOutput
Updates an existing state machine by modifying its definition
, roleArn
, or loggingConfiguration
. Running executions will continue to use the previous definition
and roleArn
. You must include at least one of definition
or roleArn
or you will receive a MissingRequiredParameter
error.
All StartExecution
calls within a few seconds will use the updated definition
and roleArn
. Executions started immediately after calling UpdateStateMachine
may use the previous state machine definition
and roleArn
.
#wait_until(waiter_name, params = {}) {|waiter| ... } ⇒ Boolean
Waiters polls an API operation until a resource enters a desired state.
Basic Usage
Waiters will poll until they are succesful, they fail by entering a terminal state, or until a maximum number of attempts are made.
# polls in a loop, sleeping between attempts client.waiter_until(waiter_name, params)
Configuration
You can configure the maximum number of polling attempts, and the delay (in seconds) between each polling attempt. You configure waiters by passing a block to #wait_until:
# poll for ~25 seconds
client.wait_until(...) do |w|
w.max_attempts = 5
w.delay = 5
end
Callbacks
You can be notified before each polling attempt and before each
delay. If you throw :success
or :failure
from these callbacks,
it will terminate the waiter.
started_at = Time.now
client.wait_until(...) do |w|
# disable max attempts
w.max_attempts = nil
# poll for 1 hour, instead of a number of attempts
w.before_wait do |attempts, response|
throw :failure if Time.now - started_at > 3600
end
end
Handling Errors
When a waiter is successful, it returns true
. When a waiter
fails, it raises an error. All errors raised extend from
Waiters::Errors::WaiterFailed.
begin
client.wait_until(...)
rescue Aws::Waiters::Errors::WaiterFailed
# resource did not enter the desired state in time
end
#waiter_names ⇒ Array<Symbol>
Returns the list of supported waiters. The following table lists the supported waiters and the client method they call:
Waiter Name | Client Method | Default Delay: | Default Max Attempts: |
---|
