How do I find OpsWorks deploy user in a recipe

0 votes

I have been trying to figure out, how to extract or find the name of the user who's performing the deployment of an app on a given OpsWorks stack. For example, in the "Deployments and Commands" section of a stack, the table there displays a history of various deployments with who the deploy user was... etc. I'd like to be able to capture that same user from within my recipe.

It doesn't look like it's something I can grab out of search(:aws_opsworks_app) databag (unless I'm mistaken). Or is there somewhere else I can get this information easily?

Can anyone help me with this query?

Thanks.

Here is a concept which you can follow:

Given below is an easier way to get it through search(:aws_opsworks_command) databag.

:aws_opsworks_command provides an iam_user_arn attribute which can be massaged to appear as the deployment user's IAM name. An example iam_user_arn string look like arn:aws:iam:555555:user/username

Example:

owc = search(:aws_opsworks_command).first
owc[:iam_user_arn].split(':').last
# => gets us "user/username"

Here is a link which you can follow for documentation purpose : https://docs.aws.amazon.com/opsworks/latest/userguide/data-bag-json-command.html

I hope that the above information would be helpful for you.
