[Feature request] Support updating/changing placement strategies

dsapab opened this issue · 1 comments

The 'ecs-cli compose service up' command does not support updating task placement strategies.

Context

  • If the service already exist, the ecs-cli will attempt to update the service, by hitting the UpdateService API Call.
  • The API Call accepts now the placementStrategy specification. As per the documentation, if no value is specified, the existing placement strategy for the service will remain unchanged. If this value is specified, it will override the existing placement strategy defined for the service.
  • The ecs-cli seems to ignore placement strategy settings specified via '--ecs-params' flags, when updating an existing service.

Alternatives

  • The alternative requires re creating the service.
