Recipes

• aws_developer_tools - runs the following recipes: ami, api, auto_scaling, cloudwatch, elb
• aws_developer_tools::ami - AMI tools. Requires Ruby
• aws_developer_tools::api - API tools. Requires Java
• aws_developer_tools::auto_scaling - Auto Scaling tools. Requires Java
• aws_developer_tools::cloudwatch - CloudWatch tools. Requires Java
• aws_developer_tools::elb - Elastic Load Balancing tools. Requires Java
• aws_developer_tools::aws_ha_release - AWS HA Release. Third-party script that replaces old instances with new ones; used when deploying new code to ensure all active instances are using the fresh code. Since this is a third-party script, it is not a part of the default recipe.
