Tutorial: Create and register a job definition

Now that your Docker image is in an image registry, you can specify it in an AWS Batch job definition. Then, you can use it later to run an array job. This example only uses the AWS CLI. However, you can also use the AWS Management Console. For more information, see Create a single-node job definition .

To create a job definition

  1. Create a file named print-color-job-def.json in your workspace directory and paste the following into it. Replace the image repository URI with your own image's URI.

    {
  "jobDefinitionName": "print-color",
  "type": "container",
  "containerProperties": {
    "image": "aws_account_id.dkr.ecr.region.amazonaws.com/print-color",
    "resourceRequirements": [
        {
            "type": "MEMORY",
            "value": "250"
        },
        {
            "type": "VCPU",
            "value": "1"
        }
    ]
  }
}

  2. Register the job definition with AWS Batch.

    $ aws batch register-job-definition --cli-input-json file://print-color-job-def.json
