$ ecs-preview env init

What does it do?

ecs-preview env init creates a new environment where your applications will live.

After you answer the questions, the CLI creates the common infrastructure that's shared between your applications such as a VPC, an Application Load Balancer, and ECS Cluster.

You create environments using a named profile to specify which AWS Account and Region you'd like the environment to be in.

What are the flags?

Like all commands in the ECS CLI v2, if you don't provide required flags, we'll prompt you for all the information we need to get you going. You can skip the prompts by providing information via flags:

  -h, --help             help for init
  -n, --name string      Name of the environment.
      --prod             If the environment contains production services.
      --profile string   Name of the profile.
