Create a changeset without deploying it #94

Open MikeShiner opened 4 years ago

MikeShiner commented 4 years ago

In order to get detailed information about changes in a nested stack, I need to create a changeset from it, but it's actually the root stack I need to apply the update to.

I would also like to generate a changeset for merge requests to show the impact to running environments. Seems like cfn changeset create was something I needed.

Is it possible to bring back the create only command? I just want to avoid the automated deployment.

Hi @MikeShiner:

This feature was present in an old version but was dropped in favour of stack sync command. I'm indeed planning to add it back -- in the meantime, as a work around if you use --confirm and "break" before confirming, the changeset is created but not executed.

Brilliant, thanks that's what I need! Happy there's a way around it. Feel free to close this issue or use it to track the request.
