Full Changelog: v1.2.0...v1.2.1

v1.2.0: Extended Tag support

• Support extra tags defined as CLI arguments

Tags can now also be overridden and added to on the command line, just like parameters can:

#tags-test.yaml
asset: buildkite
workload: delivery
buildkite-group: build-test

> cfparams --tags=tags-test.yaml buildkite-group=build-pylons message=extra-tag

[
  {
    "Key": "buildkite-group",
    "Value": "build-pylons"
  },
  {
    "Key": "message",
    "Value": "extra-tag"
  },
  {
    "Key": "asset",
    "Value": "buildkite"
  },
  {
    "Key": "workload",
    "Value": "delivery"
  }
]

v1.1.0: tags

• Support YAML stack tag files via --tags (details below)
• Use Go modules (Go 1.11+) rather than dep.

Stack Tags

CloudFormation stacks can be tagged, and those tags flow into all taggable resources the stack creates. As with --parameters, the aws cloudformation commands expect these in an awkward format. cfparams --tags file.yaml helps.

# tags-production.yaml
Name: Widgets as a Service
asset: widget-api
workload: production

cfparams --tags=tags-production.yaml

[
  {
    "Key": "Name",
    "Value": "Widgets as a Service"
  },
  {
    "Key": "asset",
    "Value": "widget-api"
  },
  {
    "Key": "workload",
    "Value": "production"
  }
]

Usage with AWS CLI:

aws cloudformation create-stack \
  ... \
  --tags "$(cfparams --tags=tags-production.yaml)" \
  ...

v1.0.0: “stable”

v1.0.0 references the same code as v0.3.0, it's being promoted to stable as per https://semver.org/#how-do-i-know-when-to-release-100

v0.3.0: !ParameterStore

• Support !ParameterStore /foo/bar in parameters YAML files (#7)
• Handle blank/missing values (#9, fixes #8)
• dependencies (YAML parser etc) managed by dep
• Release downloads are .tar.gz not .gz so executable file mode on the binary is retained.

Versioning as v0.3.0 rather than v0.0.3 or v0.1.0 due to added features and to avoid confusion. A v1.0.0 should be tagged soon after this.

v0.0.2: Handle blank defaults

#6 Fixed bug where accept-defaults ignored defaults that were empty strings ("").

v0.0.1: proof of concept

cfparams v0.0.1

Usage: cfparams [flags] [Key=value ...]

Produces JSON suitable for `aws cloudformation` CLI.

  -accept-defaults
    	Accept defaults from CloudFormation template, omit from JSON
  -no-previous
    	Disable UsePreviousValue, fail if a parameter has no default and is not specified
  -parameters string
    	Parameters YAML file
  -template string
    	CloudFormation YAML template path
