Equivalent Scripts for Windows Instances?

[coultonluke]

Hello,

The documentation doesn't indicate whether these scripts are exclusively for Linux instances, or whether they can be used on Windows.

I notice that the appspec file contains 'linux' and I'm not sure if the register/deregister scripts are suitable for execution on Windows.

Please can you advise on this and whether there is an equivalent way to register/deregister instances from an ELB using CodeDeploy and Windows instances.

Thank you,

Luke

I just saw there is already an answer for this on a previous issue. The scripts provided are not for Windows and there is not a Windows equivalent.

I do have one question though, why aren't there scripts for this for Windows?

Hi,
The ELB scripts can be converted to powershell scripts to work with Windows. We have taken feature request to come up with some equivalent windows scripts.

Thanks

I have started to create some equivalent scripts written in Powershell. It would be very useful if the documentation on the AWS website indicated that the scripts provided are bash only and not intended for Windows.

Although it shouldn't be the final solution, I've successfully managed to use Linux scripts on Windows with Cygwin. If you are interested, see it here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33538843/amazon-codedeploy-elastic-load-balancer-windows-support/38345440#38345440

Is there any news here??. I don't like too much the option of Cygwin in production environments

I implemented some of the functionality in Powershell, find it here: https://github.com/brianlund/codedeploy-elb-powershell

It's a bit limited as I didn't need e.g. Application Load balancer support, but it works (I currently use something like it in production) and is at least something to build on.

Update: I needed ALB so that has been added.
