amazon-ecs-agent-cookbook

This is an enhanced fork of the original cookbook.

This cookbook sets up the amazon ecs agent into a docker container on ubuntu. You can run it in test kitchen with the default-ecs suite, and relevant environment variabes, and perhaps a kitchen local.yml for vpc settings (subnet_id, availability_zone, security_group_ids, interface) if needed.

Supported Platforms
