如何使用 CloudFormation Init 創建沒有任何內容的文件？

Question

我想要一個由 CloudFormation 創建的空文件。

我嘗試在我的 CloudFormation 模板 yaml 文件的“內容”字段中提供一個空字符串。

Resources:
  Instance:
    Type: AWS::EC2::Instance
    Metadata:
      AWS::CloudFormation::Init:
        config:
          files:
            /var/log/app.log:
              content: ""
              mode: '000646'

我收到以下錯誤： File specified without source or content

如果我省略“內容”字段，我會得到同樣的錯誤。

你能告訴我指示 CloudFormation 創建空文件的正確方法嗎？

Answer 1

您需要指定一個內容。 如果你真的想創建一個空文件，那么我建議使用commands 。

Answer 2

正如brushtakopo指出的那樣，CloudFormation Init 不支持創建空文件，因此唯一的選擇似乎是使用命令。

我只是想包含相應的命令，因為他沒有在他的回答中包含它。

Resources:
  Instance:
    Type: AWS::EC2::Instance
    Metadata:
      AWS::CloudFormation::Init:
        config:
          commands:
            a_createLogFile:
              command: "touch /var/log/app.log"
              test: "test ! -e /var/log/app.log"
            b_chmodLogFile:
              command: "chmod 646 /var/log/app.log"
              test: "test -e /var/log/app.log"

注意：以a_為前綴的命令創建文件，以b_為前綴的命令更改其訪問權限。 前綴是為了確保第一個命令在第二個命令之前執行，因為 CloudFormation 按字母順序執行命令。

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-init.html

命令按名稱的字母順序處理。
