How do specify an environment name for elastic bean stalk?

Question

I am trying to deploy to elastic beanstalk using the cli.

The command I run is

 eb create --modules ebtargets/goapi -v

I get the following error

WARNING: You have uncommitted changes.
INFO: Getting version label from git with git-describe
INFO: Uploading archive to s3 location: goapi/app-d4ec2-160630_135740.json

ERROR: ServiceError - ApplicationVersion app-d4ec2-160630_135740 must specify an environment name in env.yaml

I have the key EnvironmentName in my env.yaml file. Any help on this?

Did you end up getting this to work? I'm getting the same error but I'm assuming this is a bug in the Elastic Beanstalk CLI. — Vincent Catalano, Aug 09 '16 at 21:49
I could not get that to work. I think its a bug on their part. — sheki, Aug 19 '16 at 00:52

I had a similar problem and I noticed you have to check your env.yaml into version control otherwise it won't be used:

git add env.yaml
git commit -m "add elastic beanstalk environment config"

This doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. The version control is something to do with `eb`? Or yours? – Chris Prince Nov 19 '17 at 03:13

Check that you have an .elasticbeanstalk folder into your ebtargets/goapi

If necessary, use eb init --modules ebtargets/goapi.
