Built-in Cookbook Attributes

PDFRSS
Important

The AWS OpsWorks Stacks service reached end of life on May 26, 2024 and has been disabled for both new and existing customers. We strongly recommend customers migrate their workloads to other solutions as soon as possible. If you have questions about migration, reach out to the AWS Support Team on AWS re:Post or through AWS Premium Support.

Note

Most of these attributes are available only on Linux stacks.

Most of the built-in recipes have one or more attributes files that define various settings. You can access these settings in your custom recipes and use custom JSON to override them. You typically need to access or override attributes that control the configuration of the various server technologies that are supported by AWS OpsWorks Stacks. This section summarizes those attributes. The complete attributes files, and the associated recipes and templates, are available at https://github.com/aws/opsworks-cookbooks.git.

Note

All built-in recipe attributes are default type.
