Manifest
The AWS Copilot CLI manifests describe a service’s architecture as infrastructure-as-code.
It is a file generated from copilot init
or copilot svc init
that gets converted to a AWS CloudFormation template. Unlike raw CloudFormation templates, the manifest allows you to focus on the most common settings for the architecture of your service and not the individual resources.
Manifest files are stored under copilot/<your service name>/manifest.yml
.
