ecs_connect_cli 1.16.0

AWS ECS Cli tool for connecting to ecs container and update secret manager

aws-ecs-exec-command-cli

AWS ECS Exec command cli tool is aimed to :

• connect to your container instance running under ECS Fargate.
• tail the log from cloudwatch logs (if you configure a logconfiguration in your task definition)
• update secret value into secret manager

 

The aws ecs execute-command command is quite complicated to remember and the tool give you the ability to parse and retrieve:

• your clusters
• your services
• your tasks
• your container

To let you choose which one you want to connect into.

Enhancements You can now connect to ECS and tail your logs from an EC2 instance or AWS CloudShell without the need of aws cli and aws credentials file.

At start, you are asked what kind of credentials you want to use and which default region.

You can now also update your secret directly from the command line.

❯ python -m ecs_connect_cli update-secret your-secret-name

 

Installation

Requirements

• Install awscli via [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html] (not necessary if you are connected to an EC2 instance)

• Install ssm tools via [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/session-manager-working-with-install-plugin.html]
