Standard SQS Queue

You are viewing article number 3 of 8 in the series GitHub just-in-time (JIT) self-hosted Runners on AWS Fargate

Our EventBridge rule includes two (2) targets, i.e.:

  • ECS task with an Input Transformer ContainerOverride for the runner container
  • SQS standard queue, configured to pass the matched event to the queue

The runner container extracts the event payload from the queue, and uses the relevant source field values to generate and initialize the runner.

Create our queue with name, git-actions-wf-job-queue:

$ aws sqs create-queue --queue-name git-actions-wf-job-queue --attributes KmsMasterKeyId=""

Output:

{
    "QueueUrl": "https://sqs.<region>.amazonaws.com/<aws_acct_id>/git-actions-wf-job-queue"
}

Note: Queue encryption has been disabled.
