2017/03/28 - AWS Batch - 4 updated api methods
Changes Customers can now provide a retryStrategy as part of the RegisterJobDefinition and SubmitJob API calls.
{'jobDefinitions': {'retryStrategy': {'attempts': 'integer'}}}
Describes a list of job definitions. You can specify a status (such as ACTIVE ) to only return job definitions that match that status.
See also: AWS API Documentation
Request Syntax
client.describe_job_definitions( jobDefinitions=[ 'string', ], maxResults=123, jobDefinitionName='string', status='string', nextToken='string' )
list
A space-separated list of up to 100 job definition names or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) entries.
(string) --
integer
The maximum number of results returned by DescribeJobDefinitions in paginated output. When this parameter is used, DescribeJobDefinitions only returns maxResults results in a single page along with a nextToken response element. The remaining results of the initial request can be seen by sending another DescribeJobDefinitions request with the returned nextToken value. This value can be between 1 and 100. If this parameter is not used, then DescribeJobDefinitions returns up to 100 results and a nextToken value if applicable.
string
The name of the job definition to describe.
string
The status with which to filter job definitions.
string
The nextToken value returned from a previous paginated DescribeJobDefinitions request where maxResults was used and the results exceeded the value of that parameter. Pagination continues from the end of the previous results that returned the nextToken value. This value is null when there are no more results to return.
Note
This token should be treated as an opaque identifier that is only used to retrieve the next items in a list and not for other programmatic purposes.

The retry strategy to use for failed jobs that are submitted with this job definition.
attempts (integer) --
The number of times to move a job to the RUNNABLE status. You may specify between 1 and 10 attempts. If attempts is greater than one, the job is retried if it fails until it has moved to RUNNABLE that many times.
containerProperties (dict) --
An object with various properties specific to container-based jobs.
image (string) --
The image used to start a container. This string is passed directly to the Docker daemon. Images in the Docker Hub registry are available by default. Other repositories are specified with `` repository-url /image :tag `` . Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, hyphens, underscores, colons, periods, forward slashes, and number signs are allowed. This parameter maps to Image in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the IMAGE parameter of docker run .
Images in Amazon ECR repositories use the full registry and repository URI (for example, 012345678910.dkr.ecr.<region-name>.amazonaws.com/<repository-name> ).
Images in official repositories on Docker Hub use a single name (for example, ubuntu or mongo ).
Images in other repositories on Docker Hub are qualified with an organization name (for example, amazon/amazon-ecs-agent ).
Images in other online repositories are qualified further by a domain name (for example, quay.io/assemblyline/ubuntu ).
vcpus (integer) --

The path on the host container instance that is presented to the container. If this parameter is empty, then the Docker daemon has assigned a host path for you. If the host parameter contains a sourcePath file location, then the data volume persists at the specified location on the host container instance until you delete it manually. If the sourcePath value does not exist on the host container instance, the Docker daemon creates it. If the location does exist, the contents of the source path folder are exported.
