ECS Backend

Træfik can be configured to use Amazon ECS as a backend configuration.

Configuration

################################################################
# ECS configuration backend
################################################################

# Enable ECS configuration backend.
[ecs]

# ECS Cluster Name.
#
# DEPRECATED - Please use `clusters`.
#
cluster = "default"

# ECS Clusters Name.
#
# Optional
# Default: ["default"]
#
clusters = ["default"]

# Enable watch ECS changes.
#
# Optional
# Default: true
#
watch = true

# Default domain used.
#
# Optional
# Default: ""
#
domain = "ecs.localhost"

# Enable auto discover ECS clusters.
#
# Optional
# Default: false
#
autoDiscoverClusters = false

# Polling interval (in seconds).
#
# Optional
# Default: 15
#
refreshSeconds = 15

# Expose ECS services by default in Traefik.
#
# Optional
# Default: true
#
exposedByDefault = false

# Region to use when connecting to AWS.
#
# Optional
#
region = "us-east-1"

# AccessKeyID to use when connecting to AWS.
#
# Optional
#
accessKeyID = "abc"

# SecretAccessKey to use when connecting to AWS.
#
# Optional
#
secretAccessKey = "123"

# Override default configuration template.
# For advanced users :)
#
# Optional
#
# filename = "ecs.tmpl"

If AccessKeyID/SecretAccessKey is not given credentials will be resolved in the following order:

  • From environment variables; AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, and AWS_SESSION_TOKEN.
  • Shared credentials, determined by AWS_PROFILE and AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE, defaults to default and ~/.aws/credentials.
  • EC2 instance role or ECS task role

Policy

Træfik needs the following policy to read ECS information:

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "TraefikECSReadAccess",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "ecs:ListClusters",
                "ecs:DescribeClusters",
                "ecs:ListTasks",
                "ecs:DescribeTasks",
                "ecs:DescribeContainerInstances",
                "ecs:DescribeTaskDefinition",
                "ec2:DescribeInstances"
            ],
            "Resource": [
                "*"
            ]
        }
    ]
}
