将 yaml 存储到 AWS SSM 存储中

Question

I have the following YAML file(sample content in the below section) which I would like to store in AWS-SSM. Each property in YAML should be kept as a key/value pair in the AWS parameter store.

 doe: "a deer, a female deer"
 ray: "a drop of golden sun"
 pi: 3.14159
 xmas: true
 french-hens: 3
 calling-birds:
   - huey
   - dewey
   - louie
   - fred
 xmas-fifth-day:
   calling-birds: four
   french-hens: 3
   golden-rings: 5
   partridges:
     count: 1
     location: "a pear tree"
   turtle-doves: two

In SSM it should be stored as,

name=xmas-fifth-day/partridges/count 
value=1

name=xmas-fifth-day/partridges/location 
value=a pear tree

etc etc.

There is a library for json2SSM it would be great if we have one for yaml2SSM or if we can able to achieve it using was AWS-CLI command is exceptionally grateful.

AWS SSM PUT_PARAMETERS support yaml-input but the format YAML is different than the one I have. If converting the YAML to a different one is the only solution then do we have any simple way to convert it? Any python/js/java library which converts the format?

Answer 1

you can convert yaml to json with yq .

# install on mac 
brew install yq

yq -o=json ssm-input.yml | json2ssm put-json --json-file /dev/stdin

---

• Convert yaml to json yq -o=json ssm-input.yml
• json2ssm put-json --json-file /dev/stdin send json file to SSM with json2ssm

It supports encryption as well. See: https://github.com/b-b3rn4rd/json2ssm/blob/master/cmd/json2ssm/main.go#L25

Updated command with encryption:

yq -o=json ssm-input.yml | json2ssm put-json --json-file /dev/stdin --encrypt

Update 2:

{
    "Parameters": [
        {
            "Name": "/path/to/base_linux_ami",
            "Type": "String",
            "Value": "ami-aminumber"
        }
    ]
}
