Description

AWS SDK for JavaScript ECS Client for Node.js, Browser and React Native.

Amazon Elastic Container Service

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is a highly scalable, fast, container management service. It makes it easy to run, stop, and manage Docker containers. You can host your cluster on a serverless infrastructure that's managed by Amazon ECS by launching your services or tasks on Fargate. For more control, you can host your tasks on a cluster of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) or External (on-premises) instances that you manage.

Amazon ECS makes it easy to launch and stop container-based applications with simple API calls. This makes it easy to get the state of your cluster from a centralized service, and gives you access to many familiar Amazon EC2 features.

You can use Amazon ECS to schedule the placement of containers across your cluster based on your resource needs, isolation policies, and availability requirements. With Amazon ECS, you don't need to operate your own cluster management and configuration management systems. You also don't need to worry about scaling your management infrastructure.

Installing

To install this package, use the CLI of your favorite package manager:

• npm install @aws-sdk/client-ecs
• yarn add @aws-sdk/client-ecs
• pnpm add @aws-sdk/client-ecs

Getting Started

Import

The AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands. To send a request, you only need to import the ECSClient and the commands you need, for example ListDaemonsCommand:

// ES5 example
const { ECSClient, ListDaemonsCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-ecs");

// ES6+ example
import { ECSClient, ListDaemonsCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-ecs";

Usage

To send a request:

• Instantiate a client with configuration (e.g. credentials, region).
  • See docs/CLIENTS for configuration details.
  • See @aws-sdk/config for additional options.
• Instantiate a command with input parameters.
• Call the send operation on the client, providing the command object as input.

const client = new ECSClient({ region: "REGION" });

const params = { /** input parameters */ };
const command = new ListDaemonsCommand(params);

Async/await

We recommend using the await operator to wait for the promise returned by send operation as follows:

// async/await.
try {
  const data = await client.send(command);
  // process data.
} catch (error) {
  // error handling.
} finally {
  // finally.
}

Promises

You can also use Promise chaining.

client
  .send(command)
  .then((data) => {
    // process data.
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    // error handling.
  })
  .finally(() => {
    // finally.
  });

Aggregated client

The aggregated client class is exported from the same package, but without the "Client" suffix.

ECS extends ECSClient and additionally supports all operations, waiters, and paginators as methods. This style may be familiar to you from the AWS SDK for JavaScript v2.

If you are bundling the AWS SDK, we recommend using only the bare-bones client (ECSClient). More details are in the blog post on modular packages in AWS SDK for JavaScript.

import { ECS } from "@aws-sdk/client-ecs";

const client = new ECS({ region: "REGION" });

// async/await.
try {
  const data = await client.listDaemons(params);
  // process data.
} catch (error) {
  // error handling.
}

// Promises.
client
  .listDaemons(params)
  .then((data) => {
    // process data.
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    // error handling.
  });

// callbacks (not recommended).
client.listDaemons(params, (err, data) => {
  // process err and data.
});

Troubleshooting

When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information, as well as response metadata (e.g. request id).

try {
  const data = await client.send(command);
  // process data.
} catch (error) {
  const { requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId } = error.$metadata;
  console.log({ requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId });
  /**
   * The keys within exceptions are also parsed.
   * You can access them by specifying exception names:
   * if (error.name === 'SomeServiceException') {
   *     const value = error.specialKeyInException;
   * }
   */
}
