AWS Cost Calculator CLI - Calculate daily and annual AWS costs across multiple accounts

Project description

AWS Cost Calculator (cc)

A CLI tool to quickly calculate AWS costs across multiple accounts.

Installation

cd ~/cost-calculator
pip install -e .

Quick Start

1. Login to AWS SSO

aws sso login --profile my_aws_profile

Note: You need to do this before running cost calculations. The SSO session typically lasts 8-12 hours.

2. Initialize a profile

cc init --profile myprofile \
  --aws-profile my_aws_profile \
  --accounts "123456789012,234567890123,345678901234"

3. Calculate costs

# Default: Today minus 2 days, going back 30 days
cc calculate --profile myprofile

# Specific start date
cc calculate --profile myprofile --start-date 2025-11-04

# Custom offset and window
cc calculate --profile myprofile --offset 2 --window 30

# JSON output
cc calculate --profile myprofile --json-output

4. List profiles

cc list-profiles

How It Works

Date Calculation

  • Start Date: Defaults to today, or specify with --start-date
  • Offset: Days to go back from start date (default: 2)
  • Window: Number of days to analyze (default: 30)

Example: If today is Nov 4, 2025:

  • With offset=2, window=30: Analyzes Oct 3 - Nov 2 (30 days)

Cost Calculation

  1. Operational Costs: Sum of daily costs ÷ window days
  2. Support Allocation:
    • Gets support cost from the analysis month
    • Divides by 2 (50% allocation)
    • Divides by days in that month
  3. Daily Rate: Operational + Support per day
  4. Annual Projection: Daily rate × 365

Filters Applied

  • Billing Entity: AWS only (excludes marketplace)
  • Excluded: Tax, Support (calculated separately)
  • Metric: Net Amortized Cost

Configuration

Profiles are stored in: ~/.config/cost-calculator/profiles.json

Example:

{
  "myprofile": {
    "aws_profile": "my_aws_profile",
    "accounts": ["123456789012", "234567890123", "345678901234"]
  }
}

Examples

# Quick daily check
cc calculate --profile myprofile

# Historical analysis
cc calculate --profile myprofile --start-date 2025-10-01

# Export to JSON for processing
cc calculate --profile myprofile --json-output > costs.json

# Different window size
cc calculate --profile myprofile --window 60

Output

Analyzing: 2025-10-03 to 2025-11-02 (30 days)
AWS Profile: my_aws_profile
Accounts: 3
