Code deploy throws error Family can not be blank

Question

I am currently trying to use code pipeline to perform an ecs blue green deployment. I have a task definition that is defined like this:

  TaskDefinition:
    Type: AWS::ECS::TaskDefinition
    Properties:
      Family: "Project-Grafana-task"
      Cpu: 512
      Memory: 1024
      NetworkMode: awsvpc
      TaskRoleArn: !Ref Role
      ExecutionRoleArn: !GetAtt ExecutionRole.Arn
      RequiresCompatibilities:
        - FARGATE
        - EC2
      ContainerDefinitions:
        - Name: Grafana
          Image: grafana/grafana
          PortMappings:
            - ContainerPort: 3000
          MountPoints:
            - SourceVolume: Grafana-home
              ContainerPath: /var/Grafana_home
          LogConfiguration:
            LogDriver: awslogs
            Options:
              awslogs-group: !Ref CloudwatchLogsGroup
              awslogs-region: !Ref AWS::Region
              awslogs-stream-prefix: Grafana
      Volumes:
        - Name: Grafana-home
          EFSVolumeConfiguration:
            FilesystemId: !GetAtt TaskNetworking.Outputs.FileSystemID
            TransitEncryption: ENABLED
            AuthorizationConfig:
              AccessPointId: !GetAtt TaskNetworking.Outputs.AccessPointId
              IAM: ENABLED
 

And a taskdef.json file that looks like:

{
    "Family":"Project-Grafana-task",
    "Cpu": 512,
    "Memory": 1024,
    "NetworkMode": "awsvpc",
    "TaskRoleArn": "arn:aws:iam::xxxxxxxxxx:role/grafana-role",
    "ExecutionRoleArn": "arn:aws:iam::xxxxxxxx:role/grafana-execution-role",
    "RequiresCompatibilities": [
      "FARGATE",
      "EC2"
    ],
    "ContainerDefinitions": [
      {
        "Name": "Grafana",
        "Image": "<IMAGE1_NAME>",
        "PortMappings": [
          {
            "ContainerPort": 3000
          }
        ],
        "MountPoints": [
          {
            "SourceVolume": "Grafana-home",
            "ContainerPath": "/var/Grafana_home"
          }
        ],
        "LogConfiguration": {
          "LogDriver": "awslogs",
          "Options": {
            "awslogs-group": "CloudwatchLogsGroup",
            "awslogs-region": "eu-west-1",
            "awslogs-stream-prefix": "Grafana"
          }
        }
      }
    ],
    "Volumes": [
      {
        "Name": "Grafana-home",
        "EFSVolumeConfiguration": {
          "FilesystemId": "xxxxxxxxxxxx",
          "TransitEncryption": "ENABLED",
          "AuthorizationConfig": {
            "AccessPointId": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
            "IAM": "ENABLED"
          }
        }
      }
    ]
  }

When trying to run the pipeline this returns the error:

Family can not be blank.

Have I missed a place where family can be defined, my current understanding is that if the taskdef.json and the appspec.json (which is also included) get passed to the code deploy part of the pipe line I should get a blue/green deployment. Also worth noting the code deploy job is already set up as well.

Answer 1

The taskdef.json needs the keys to be camel case so Family needs to be family and MountPoints would need to be mountPoints
