image
The image used to start a container. This string is passed directly to the Docker daemon. By default, images in the Docker Hub registry are available. Other repositories are specified with either <i>repository-url</i>/<i>image</i>:<i>tag</i> or <i>repository-url</i>/<i>image</i>@<i>digest</i> . For images using tags (repository-url/image:tag), up to 255 characters total are allowed, including letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, hyphens, underscores, colons, periods, forward slashes, and number signs (#). For images using digests (repository-url/image@digest), the 255 character limit applies only to the repository URL and image name (everything before the @ sign). The only supported hash function is sha256, and the hash value after sha256: must be exactly 64 characters (only letters A-F, a-f, and numbers 0-9 are allowed). This parameter maps to Image in the docker container create command and the IMAGE parameter of docker run.
When a new task starts, the Amazon ECS container agent pulls the latest version of the specified image and tag for the container to use. However, subsequent updates to a repository image aren't propagated to already running tasks.
Images in Amazon ECR repositories can be specified by either using the full
registry/repository:tagorregistry/repository@digest. For example,012345678910.dkr.ecr.<region-name>.amazonaws.com/<repository-name>:latestor012345678910.dkr.ecr.<region-name>.amazonaws.com/<repository-name>@sha256:94afd1f2e64d908bc90dbca0035a5b567EXAMPLE.Images in official repositories on Docker Hub use a single name (for example,
ubuntuormongo).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).
