Run a task on AWS ECS and stream output.
As input this takes an existing cluster and service and runs a task with the same subnets and execution role, but with a different command. This can for example be used to run a rake task on a Rails service in ECS.

USAGE:
ecs-run [OPTIONS] <CLUSTER> <SERVICE> <COMMAND>...
FLAGS:
-h, --help Prints help information
-V, --version Prints version information
OPTIONS:
-n, --name <CONTAINER> Name of container to run command in
-E, --env <ENV>... Environment variable to pass to container, VAR=value
ARGS:
<CLUSTER> Name of cluster to run in
<SERVICE> Service to base task on
<COMMAND>... Command to run
This can be run using Docker in the folloging way:
docker run --rm -it -v ~/.aws:/root/.aws:ro -e AWS_PROFILE -e AWS_REGION -e AWS_DEFAULT_REGION edalen/ecs-run <cluster> <service> <command>
If you have the credentials set as environment variables you might need to forward them as well, by adding -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY etc.
If you run it in CodeBuild you have to pass the AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI to give it access to the IAM role.
- ecs-run-task - Similar, but creates a new task definition instead of reusing the one from an existing service.
