update-task-definition command remove the runtime-platform information

[yyamada-red-frasco]

Orb version:

2.2.1

What happened:

The runtime-platform parameter is not specified in the aws ecs register-task-definition of the update-task-definition command, so if you update the task definition that specifies the runtime-platform, the information will be removed. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ecs/register-task-definition.html

Steps:

• create a task definition with this value set:

  "runtimePlatform": {
  "operatingSystemFamily": "LINUX",
  "cpuArchitecture": "ARM64"
  }

• use the orb to update the task definition aws-ecs/update-task-definition

Expected behavior:

Update the task definition with the runtime-platform information specified in the existing task definition.

Additional Information:

The current aws ecs describe-task-definition cannot get the runtime-platform information. Therefore, until AWS updates it, you need to add cpuArchitecture and operatingSystemFamily to the Orb command parameters.

At least on the latest version, it does retrieve runtimePlatform.

I was planning on adding the support, but I'm on a very hectic moment of my project right now, so I won't be able to.

But if nobody adds the new code when I'm free again, I will work on adding the support.

Would be great to have this in 2.2.2

[yoavya]

Is there a workaround for this besides copying the code to my circle configuration file and fixing the issue locally? Or is there any ETA on the release @alansikora ?
