Package: aws-scripts
aws-scriptsHere you will find some useful AWS scripts I use often.All the scripts relies onBoto, a Python package that provides interfaces to Amazon Web Services.So, to use these scripts, you need to install Boto and provide your AWS credentinals:To install aws-scripts and all the required Python packages just type:pip install aws-scriptsIf dependencies are already satisfied, nothing will be installed.If you already have aws-scripts installed in your computer you can update to the latest version as follows:pip install --upgrade aws-scriptsTo provide your AWS credentials use the boto/boto3 config file~/.aws/credentials:[default]aws_access_key_id=<XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX>aws_secret_access_key=<xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>region=xx-xxxx-xNote that you can use the environment variable:AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=xx-xxxx-xto override the default region on the config file.
In the ec2-instances.py script you can also use the--regionoption for the same purposeec2-instances.pyLists the EC2 instances including the Name Tag, IP, type, zone, vpc, subnet and the status.You can filter the result by name, type, status and/or public or private IP address. Or you can provide a list of instance IDs instead.Finally you can execute remote commands on all the instances returned by the filter or the list.The execution method support both: direct connections against the public instance IP or using a bastion host.When this method is used, the .ssh/config file is used to establish the connection.The '-h' option shows you how to use the available options.usage: ec2-instances.py [-h] [-n NAME] [-t TYPE] [-s STATUS] [-z ZONE] [-v VPC] [-S SUBNET] [--public_ip PUBLIC_IP] [--private_ip PRIVATE_IP] [-l ID_LIST [ID_LIST ...]] [-i IGNORE] [-e EXECUTE] [-r REGION]

                        The Method to connect to the instance (if -e option is used). If the instance exposes the SSH port on a public IP, use direct. Otherwhise choose bastion-host. This method look for
                        the hostname and username inside the .ssh/config file to reach the target instance.ec2-reserved.pyLists details of all your Instance Reservations, including a summary of the active reservations by type and size.The summary also shows your reserved active capacity after apply the normalization factor. This is useful to compare the reserved capacity with the deployed in production.You can also use the option--create-google-calendar-eventsto add the expiration date of the active reservations in your Google Calendar Account.usage: ec2-reserved.py [-h]

Then create theOAuth client IDcredentials. Download the credentials file and save it asclient_secret.jsonin the aws-scripts folder repo. When you run the script using the--create-google-calendar-eventsoption for the first time, a web browser will be opened asking your to login with the Google account you want to use.Then, whenever you buy new reservations on Amazon Web Services, you can add the new reservations in your calendar by just running the script.ec2-instance-state.pySet the desired state for an EC2 instance or a list of instances.You can use it form a cron task in order to manage the instance state of one or several instances.

The dumped files are compressed in a tarball file and uploaded to a Amazon S3 bucket.For the snapshot method, you can provide the data and / or the journal volumes and the script automatically will lock the database and will suspend all the writes during the backup process to ensure the consistency of the backup if required.For the dump method, you can specify the number of copies to retain in the bucket or in the EC2 snapshot area. The oldest ones will be automatically removed.usage: mongodb-backup.py [-h] [-m {dump,snapshot}] [-u USER] [-p PASSWORD] [-H HOST] [-d DATABASE] [-c COLLECTION] [-e EXCLUDE_COLLECTION] [-o OUT] [-n NUMBER] [-b BUCKET] [-P PREFIX]
