I help deploy Stacks into Cloud Formation. I save data about them in SimpleDB.

Getting Started

Install the gem

gem install stackster

Create a file ~/.stackster.yml and include within it:

access_key: xxx
secret_key: yyy
region: us-west-1

Commands

You can issues the following commands stacks:

stackster list 
stackster create -n STACK_NAME -a ATTRIBUTES -t TEMPLATE_PATH
stackster update -n STACK_NAME -a ATTRIBUTES
stackster show -n STACK_NAME
stackster destroy -n STACK_NAME

Attributes are specified as '=' seperated key value pairs.  Multiple can be specified.  For example:

stackster create -n test-stack -t ~/my-template.json -a arg1=val1 -a arg2=vol2

For more information, run stackster -h.
