createStack
- Karl Henselin
- M L Mounika
Creates a CloudFormation stack in the AWS cloud. This operation takes inputs for both a template URL and a template file but will only use one. If both are provided, the plugin will use the template URL and do nothing with the file. If neither input is provided, the plugin will automatically look in the artifacts directory for a single file and try to use that as a template.
