aws-sqs: Create a queue with specific attributes from a file in JSON format.
$ aws sqs create-queue --queue-name ${queue_name} --attributes ${file:--path-to-attributes_file-json}
try on your machine

The given command is used to create a new AWS Simple Queue Service (SQS) queue. Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • aws sqs create-queue: This part of the command is used to interact with the SQS service and create a new queue.
  • --queue-name ${queue_name}: This specifies the name of the queue to be created. ${queue_name} is a placeholder indicating that you need to provide a value for the queue_name variable.
  • --attributes ${file:--path-to-attributes_file-json}: This option is used to provide additional attributes to the queue by specifying a JSON file. ${file:--path-to-attributes_file-json} is another placeholder indicating that you need to provide the path to a JSON file containing the attributes. The file parameter tells AWS CLI to read the attributes from a file instead of passing them directly. You need to replace --path-to-attributes_file-json with the actual path to your JSON file.

In summary, this command is used to create an SQS queue with a specific name and additional attributes provided in a JSON file.
