Support specifying multiple images

[panuhorsmalahti]

Instead of --image there could be --images which would support --images foo,bar to update multiple images at once. At the moment the ecs-deploy script needs to be run separately for each image, which creates a task definition update for each image, and is also slower than updating them at one go.

+1! I have many services which package a backend+frontend, running two containers as a single service.

I can update my frontend definition manually (it changes much less often), but it would be nice to update multiple containers in the same ecs-deploy run.

Repository looks abandoned?

There may be a couple alternatives

deoxxa/ecsx looks pretty cool .

I also worked on a similar tool

With which you could do:

update-aws-ecs-service \
  -cluster mycluster \
  -service myservice \
  -container-image mycontainer1=myrepo/myimg1:newtag \
  -container-image mycontainer2=myrepo/myimg2:newtag
