Available variables

You can use variables in stack and stack group configuration files and stack template files. Each of them has a different set of variables available.

Stack group configuration files

Here are variables available in stack group configuration files:

env object Environment variables.
context object An object containing context variables.
context.projectDir string Current project directory.
stackGroup object An object representing the current stack group.
stackGroup.name string Name of the stack group.
stackGroup.path string Path of the stack group.
stackGroup.pathSegments string[] Path of the stack group split into an array using / as a separator.
parent object An object representing the parent stack group where the stack group belongs to.
parent.accountIds string[] Account ids of the parent stack group.
parent.capabilities string[] Capabilities of the parent stack group.
parent.commandRole string Command role of the parent stack group.
parent.data object Data object of the parent stack group.
parent.isRoot boolean Is the parent stack group the root.
parent.name string Name of the parent stack group.
parent.path string Path of the parent stack group.
parent.pathSegments string[] Path of the parent stack group split into an array using / as a separator.
parent.project string Project of the parent stack group.

parent.timeout object Timeout configuration of the stack group.
parent.timeout.create number Create timeout in seconds.
parent.timeout.update number Update timeout in seconds.
stack object An object representing the stack.
stack.configFile object An object representing configuration file of the stack.
stack.configFile.basename string Name of the stack configuration file including the file extension
stack.configFile.dirPath string File path to the directory containing the stack configuration file relative to stack directory.
stack.configFile.filePath string File path of the stack configuration file relative to stack directory.
stack.configFile.name string Name of the stack configuration file without the file extension.
stack.path string Path of the stack without the region specified.
stack.pathSegments string[] Path of the stack without the region specified split into an array using / as a separator.
var object Variables from the command line.

Stack template files

Here are variables available in stack template files:
