The name of the cluster that hosts the service.

If a cluster is specified, the vpc construct should be omitted. Alternatively, you can omit both cluster and vpc.

default

Default: create a new cluster; if both cluster and vpc are omitted, a new VPC will be created for you.

The desired number of instantiations of the task definition to keep running on the service.

If no value is specified, the tags are not propagated.

A name for the rule.
default

Default: AWS CloudFormation generates a unique physical ID and uses that ID for the rule name. For more information, see Name Type.

scheduleSchedulescheduleSchedulescheduleScheduleScheduleScheduleScheduleSchedulerequired#
The schedule or rate (frequency) that determines when CloudWatch Events runs the rule.

For more information, see Schedule Expression Syntax for Rules in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.

The metadata that you apply to the task to help you categorize and organize them.

Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define.

The VPC where the container instances will be launched or the elastic network interfaces (ENIs) will be deployed.

If a vpc is specified, the cluster construct should be omitted. Alternatively, you can omit both vpc and cluster.

default

Default: uses the VPC defined in the cluster or creates a new VPC.

Methods ​

Checks if `x` is a construct.
notes · 1 parameter · returns

Use this method instead of instanceof to properly detect Construct instances, even when the construct library is symlinked.

Explanation: in JavaScript, multiple copies of the constructs library on disk are seen as independent, completely different libraries. As a consequence, the class Construct in each copy of the constructs library is seen as a different class, and an instance of one class will not test as instanceof the other class. npm install will not create installations like this, but users may manually symlink construct libraries together or use a monorepo tool: in those cases, multiple copies of the constructs library can be accidentally installed, and instanceof will behave unpredictably. It is safest to avoid using instanceof, and using this type-testing method instead.

Parameters

  • xxxxX — Any object.

Returns: true if x is an object created from a class which extends Construct.

toString(): stringdef to_string(self, ) -> strpublic String toString()public string ToString()func ToString() *string#
Returns a string representation of this construct.
with(...mixins: IMixin[]): IConstructdef with(self, mixins: IMixin) -> IConstructpublic IConstruct with(IMixin mixins)public IConstruct With(IMixin mixins)func With(Mixins IMixin) IConstruct#
Applies one or more mixins to this construct.

Mixins are applied in order. The list of constructs is captured at the start of the call, so constructs added by a mixin will not be visited. Use multiple with() calls if subsequent mixins should apply to added constructs.
