CLI tool to restart all ECS tasks inside a cluster
This project was born out of the need to restart all ECS tasks automatically, without having duplicate service definitions.
The commend restarts all tasks inside a given cluster, one at a time. After stopping one tasks it waits until the ECS service has started a new tasks before it stops the next one.
$ npm install -g @mediaman/restart-all-ecs-tasks
You can restart all ECS tasks on a given cluster with the restart-all-ecs-tasks command:
$ restart-all-ecs-tasks -c arn:aws:ecs:region:1234567890123:cluster/environment
By default the restart-all-ecs-tasks commands executes the aws binary. If your environment is not configured properly and you need to specify the full path to the aws binary you can specify it using the -b or --binary option.
$ restart-all-ecs-tasks -c arn:aws:ecs:region:1234567890123:cluster/environment -b /usr/local/bin/aws
