Additional application attributes

[awsiv]

Allow additional attributes:

applicationDescription (Default: "")
platformHealthOnly (Default: false)
platformHealthOnlyShowOverride (Default: false)

Is this going to be merged? We really need to be able to configure platformHealthOnly.

Note: it does not support attributes update, they can be set only during initial application creation.

@paleg I posted this earlier in spinnaker slack

Spinnaker healthchecks demystified

Spinnaker checks for following health status

• Platform health (AWS/ECS health status - needs to be enabled in the app)

• LoadBalancer/targetgroup health status (enabled by default if TG is attached)
   
  Internally, Spinnaker(Orca) works with healthchecks depending on the value of interestingHealthProviderNames

• "interestingHealthProviderNames": null  (listens to HC from discovery + platform or LB/TG depending on what is configured)

• "interestingHealthProviderNames": []      (skips HC completely)

• "interestingHealthProviderNames" : ["ecs", "LoadBalancer", "TargetGroup"]  (Listens to status from the list, think any returning true results to true, ie. OR'ed but need to confirm)
  When a container healthcheck is configured, this is reported by the ECS platform

For ec2 it’s “Amazon”

So if you update your pipeline json with one of the above, you should get the desired behavior without changing the option in application.

Not sure about other providers though.
