proposal: enable to deploy new service

[fujiwara]

Sure, currently "ecspresso create" is only for creating a service, and "ecspresso deploy" requires an ECS service exists.

I'm considering to "ecspresso deploy" creates a ECS service if it is not exists. Thank you!

I'm sorry, I missed ecspresso create...
It would be useful if it could be unified with ecspresso deploy, but ecsoresso create seems to do what I want to do.
Thank you for your comments! I'll close this issue for now.

An ecspresso config file can use syntaxes like {{ env }} and {{ must_env }}.

For example,

region: ap-northeast-1
cluster: default
service: '{{ must_env `ECS_SERVICE` }}'
task_definition: myTask.json

How about switching the environment variable ECS_SERVICE for the deployment targets (dev, stg or prod)?

Yeah, I want to do like this.
However, I think we need an existing service named $ECS_SERVICE to be able to deploy with ecspresso deploy command for now.
This is because that ecspresso checks whether the specified service exists or not in deploy. ( https://github.com/kayac/ecspresso/blob/v1/deploy.go#L43 )
