My ec2 instance have a script called hello_world.sh that prints hello world and echo.sh which accepts parameters and echo it.

The following works

ssm_runner.sh dev hello_world.sh

but this one doesn't

ssm_runner.sh dev echo.sh hello

You could do the following.

1. At the ssm_runner.sh script change the single quotation for positional parameters variable $@, to double quotation. And make it start from second argument, which corresponds to the script you will pass by terminal call.

    --parameters '{"commands":["su -c \"./'$@'\" - ec2-user"]}' \
    --parameters '{"commands":["su -c \"./"${@:2}"\" - ec2-user"]}' \

Notice that ${@:2} stands for positional parameters variable to start from second argument.

2. The next thing it's to call the script this way:

    ssm_runner.sh dev "echo.sh hello"
                  --- ---------------
                   |         |
                  1st        --> 2nd pos. arg. as a single one thanks to quotation.
                pos. arg.
              we will ignore.

Basically, you needed your echo.sh to be the first thing your su -c <...> found out to execute, i.e., trim off dev and keep the rest as an argument, playing around with positional parameters.
