  USAGE: netsells <command> [options] [arguments]

  aws:ec2:list             List the instances available
  aws:ssm:connect          Connect to an server via SSH (Use --tunnel to establish an SSH tunnel)
  aws:assume-role          Assumes a role for a particular client
  
  aws:ecs:manage-env       Edits env variables stored in s3 for a client's ECS setup
  
  docker:aws:deploy-update Updates task definition and service
  docker:aws:login         Logs into docker via the AWS account
  docker:aws:push          Pushes docker-compose created images to ECR
  docker:build             Builds docker-compose ready for prod

The CLI will look for configuration in the arguments/options supplied via the command line, falling back to the Netsells file. This should be placed at the root of your project and called .netsells.yml.

Below is a feature complete file to be used as reference:

docker:
    services:
        - web
        - php
    aws:
        region: eu-west-2
        ecs:
            cluster: traefik
            service: netsells-api
            task-definition: netsells-api

• aws:ec2:list - List the instances available
• aws:ssm:connect - Connect to a server via SSH (Use --tunnel to establish an SSH tunnel)
• aws:manage-env - Edit the .env file(s) used to configure ECS

netsells aws:ec2:list

Returns a list of ec2 instances on the AWS account

Available Arguments

• --aws-profile= - Override the AWS profile to use

netsells aws:ssm:connect

Establishes a command to a server over SSH. This command first generates a temporary SSH key, sends it to the server via SSM SendCommand feature which then allows 15 seconds for the SSH client to connect via the SSM session.

If you don't supply any options, you will be asked for them. --tunnel is required to establish an SSH tunnel (typically used for MySQL).

Available Arguments

• --aws-profile= - The name of the AWS profile to use
• --instance-id= - The instance ID to connect to
• --username= - The username connect with
• --tunnel - Sets up an SSH tunnel. Required to initiate a tunnel connection
• --tunnel-remote-server= - The SSH tunnel remote server
• --tunnel-remote-port= - The SSH tunnel remote port
• --tunnel-local-port= - The SSH tunnel local port
• --aws-profile= - Override the AWS profile to use

netsells aws:ecs:manage-env

Enables editing of .env files stored in S3 for a client to facilitate ECS configuration.

This will normally be run from the aws:assume-role command prompt, but can be run outside of that if you are authenticated as an AWS user with appropriate permissions to the S3 bucket.

The editor is configured to use vi (the preferred editor for real geeks), but you can change this by setting the EDITOR enviroment variable to the full path of your preferred editor.

If run from the aws:assume-role command prompt, the S3 bucket for the .env files will be already selected from the accounts.json file. However, this can be supplied using the appropriate argument.

Available Arguments

• --s3-bucket-name - The name of the S3 bucket holding the .env files
