To create a core definition version

The following create-core-definition-version example creates a core definition version and associates it with the specified core definition. The version can contain one core only. Before you can create a core, you must first create and provision the corresponding AWS IoT thing. This process includes the following iot commands, which return the ThingArn and CertificateArn required for the create-core-definition-version command.

* Create the AWS IoT thing that corresponds to the core device.

aws iot create-thing --thing-name "MyCoreDevice"Identify
--thing-nameThe name of the thing to create.
Its output
{
    "thingArn": "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:thing/MyCoreDevice",
    "thingName": "MyCoreDevice",
    "thingId": "a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111"
}

* Create public and private keys and the core device certificate for the thing. This example uses the create-keys-and-certificate command and requires write permissions to the current directory. Alternatively, you can use the create-certificate-from-csr command.

aws iot create-keys-and-certificate --set-as-active --certificate-pem-outfile "myCore.cert.pem" --public-key-outfile "myCore.public.key" --private-key-outfile "myCore.private.key"Identify
--set-as-activeSpecifies whether the certificate is active.
Its output
{
    "certificateArn": "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:cert/123a15ec415668c2349a76170b64ac0878231c1e21ec83c10e92a1EXAMPLExyz",
    "certificatePem": "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\nMIIDWTCAkGgAwIBATgIUCgq6EGqou6zFqWgIZRndgQEFW+gwDQYJKoZIhvc...KdGewQS\n-----END CERTIFICATE-----\n",
    "keyPair": {
        "PublicKey": "-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\nMIIBIjANBzrqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOCAQ8AMIIBCgKCAQEAqKpRgnn6yq26U3y...wIDAQAB\n-----END PUBLIC KEY-----\n",
        "PrivateKey": "-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\nMIIEowIABAKCAQEAqKpRgnn6yq26U3yt5YFZquyukfRjbMXDcNOK4rMCxDR...fvY4+te\n-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n"
    },
    "certificateId": "123a15ec415668c2349a76170b64ac0878231c1e21ec83c10e92a1EXAMPLExyz"
}

* Create an AWS IoT policy that allows iot and greengrass actions. For simplicity, the following policy allows actions on all resources, but your policy should be more restrictive.

aws iot create-policy --policy-name "Core_Devices" --policy-document "{\"Version\":\"2012-10-17\",\"Statement\":[{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Action\":[\"iot:Publish\",\"iot:Subscribe\",\"iot:Connect\",\"iot:Receive\"],\"Resource\":[\"*\"]},{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Action\":[\"iot:GetThingShadow\",\"iot:UpdateThingShadow\",\"iot:DeleteThingShadow\"],\"Resource\":[\"*\"]},{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Action\":[\"greengrass:*\"],\"Resource\":[\"*\"]}]}"Identify
--policy-nameThe policy name.
--policy-documentThe JSON document that describes the policy.
Its output
{
    "policyName": "Core_Devices",
    "policyArn": "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:policy/Core_Devices",
    "policyDocument": "{\"Version\":\"2012-10-17\",\"Statement\":[{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Action\":[\"iot:Publish\",\"iot:Subscribe\",\"iot:Connect\",\"iot:Receive\"],\"Resource\":[\"*\"]},{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Action\":[\"iot:GetThingShadow\",\"iot:UpdateThingShadow\",\"iot:DeleteThingShadow\"],\"Resource\":[\"*\"]},{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Action\":[\"greengrass:*\"],\"Resource\":[\"*\"]}]}",
    "policyVersionId": "1"
}

* Attach the policy to the certificate.

aws iot attach-policy --policy-name "Core_Devices" --target "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:cert/123a15ec415668c2349a76170b64ac0878231c1e21ec83c10e92a1EXAMPLExyz"Identify
--policy-nameThe name of the policy to attach.
--targetThe identity to which the policy is attached.

This command produces no output.

* Attach the thing to the certificate.

aws iot attach-thing-principal --thing-name "MyCoreDevice" --principal "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:cert/123a15ec415668c2349a76170b64ac0878231c1e21ec83c10e92a1EXAMPLExyz"Identify
--thing-nameThe name of the thing.
--principalThe principal, which can be a certificate ARN (as returned from the CreateCertificate operation) or an Amazon Cognito ID.

This command produces no output.

* Create the core definition version.

aws greengrass create-core-definition-version --core-definition-id "a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE22222" --cores "[{\"Id\":\"MyCoreDevice\",\"ThingArn\":\"arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:thing/MyCoreDevice\",\"CertificateArn\":\"arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:cert/123a15ec415668c2349a76170b64ac0878231c1e21ec83c10e92a1EXAMPLExyz\",\"SyncShadow\":true}]"Identify
--core-definition-idThe ID of the core definition.
--coresA list of cores in the core definition version.
Its output
{
    "Arn": "arn:aws:greengrass:us-west-2:123456789012:/greengrass/definition/cores/a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE22222/versions/a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE33333",
    "Version": "a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE33333",
    "CreationTimestamp": "2019-09-18T00:15:09.838Z",
    "Id": "a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE22222"
}
