Options

--type (string)

The type of the extension.

Conditional: You must specify Arn , or TypeName and Type .

Possible values:

  • RESOURCE
  • MODULE
  • HOOK

--arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the extension.

Conditional: You must specify Arn , or TypeName and Type .

--type-name (string)

The name of the extension.

Conditional: You must specify Arn , or TypeName and Type .

--public-version-number (string)

The version number to assign to this version of the extension.

Use the following format, and adhere to semantic versioning when assigning a version number to your extension:

MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH

For more information, see Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 .

If you don't specify a version number, CloudFormation increments the version number by one minor version release.

You cannot specify a version number the first time you publish a type. CloudFormation automatically sets the first version number to be 1.0.0 .

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.
