AWS EMR how to use shell script as bootstrap action?

I need to be able to use Java 8 in EMR I have found this post

Which provides a bootstrap shell script

Which installs java 8.

When looking at documentation on how to use bootstrap scripts its not apparent at all how to use a shell script with bootstrap actions since in documentation it asks for a Jar location (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ElasticMapReduce/latest/ManagementGuide/emr-plan-bootstrap.html)

Under Bootstrap Actions select Configure and add to specify the Name, JAR location, and arguments for your bootstrap action. Choose Add.

I don't have a Jar location I have a shell script as a bootstrap action.

How am I suppose to use a shell script should I just enter the shell script as Jar location?

Solution

Yes, all you have to do is add the S3 location of your script as the JAR location (or just navigate to it using the form).

Example:

s3://mybucket/myfolder/myscript.sh
