Integration with ECS for new image deployments

[kaitea]

Hi,

It would be great if this plugin can be enhanced to support new ECS deployments where we just specify the ECS cluster, service name and docker image tag, and it just takes the existing task definition the service is mapped to and updates the image tag to the new one and updates the ecs service to the new ecs task revision. Ideally, if this works with Jenkins pipeline that would be great. Or, perhaps it's better to create a entirely new ECS deploy plugin?

Thanks

Hi!

This plugin is intended for kicking off deployments with AWS CodeDeploy. For ECS based deployments, it would likely be better to be a new plugin or perhaps a feature enhancement for the ECS Jenkins Plugin (https://github.com/jenkinsci/amazon-ecs-plugin). Currently it appears to be limited to using ECS as build executors but they may be interested in adding deployment support as well.
