docker run program arguments in aws ecs

Question

I have a working container in Amazon\'s ECS that runs a program as a task. I would like to pass some program arguments, as I would do when running locally with docker run<

Answer 1

Use environment section in ecs task definition to inject your configs.

"environment" : [
    { "name" : "string", "value" : "string" },
    { "name" : "string", "value" : "string" }
]

Please refer to the following aws documentation http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/task_definition_parameters.html#container_definition_environment
