AWS trigger a Pipeline on ECR push action?

Question

An AWS CodePipeline can be triggered on a commit action to AWS CodeCommit.

I do not see an option/way to trigger an AWS CodePipeline on a push action to AWS ECR. Is there a such option?

If you create a Pipeline from AWS CodePipeline Console and choose Amazon ECR as source provider, it will create a CloudWatch event

{
  "source": [
    "aws.ecr"
  ],
  "detail": {
    "eventName": [
      "PutImage"
    ],
    "requestParameters": {
      "repositoryName": [
        "my-repo/nginx"
      ],
      "imageTag": [
        "0.1"
      ]
    }
  }

Target of this event will be the CodePipeline. You can inspect the Event details in AWS CloudWatch console. Whenever a Push (PutImage) occurs on the ECR repo, Pipeline will be excecuted.
