git remote helper for pulling aws data

Published at https://gitlab.com/autofitcloud/git-remote-aws

Installation

sudo apt-get install git python3 python3-pip

pip install awscli git-remote-aws

Usage

Configure awscli with your AWS key and secret (skip this step if already done)

aws configure

Init a new git repo

TMPDIR=`mktemp -d`
cd $TMPDIR
git init

Add AWS remotes for EC2 describe-instances, list-metrics, etc.. To use a profile from ~/.aws/credentials other than the default, append ?profile_name=<optional profile name to use> to the remote URLs below.

git remote add ec2_descInstances  aws+ec2::/describe-instances
git remote add cw_listMetrics     aws+cw::/list-metrics
git remote add sns_listTopics     aws+sns::/list-topics
git remote add cw_getMetricData   aws+cw::/get-metric-data
git remote add cw_descAlarms      aws+cw::/describe-alarms

Fetch data from all remotes.

git fetch --all

This creates a folder aws.amazon.com with a directory structure containing the relevant data

Publish your open-source infrastructure

git add aws.amazon.com
git commit -m 'first commit'

git remote add origin [e-mail]:shadiakiki1986/shadiakiki1986.aws.amazon.com-json.git
git push -u origin master

Advanced

The full structure of the remote URLs is as follows

git remote add example_1 aws+<service>::<endpoint url>/<command>?profile_name=<optional profile name to use>

where

• service is one of: ec2, cw (cloudwatch), sns
• endpoint url is the AWS endpoint to use
  • leave blank for the default AWS endpoints, or use moto for mocked AWS services
• command: depending on the service above, this can be
  • ec2:
    • describe-instances
    • catalog (this is not an official AWS service, but is populated from https://www.ec2instances.info. Check related note in "Developer notes" below)
  • cw:
    • list-metrics
    • get-metric-data
    • describe-alarms
  • sns
    • list-topics
• profile_name is the profile name from ~/.aws/credentials
  • this is optional
  • Only one profile supported at a time (ATM, check issue #5)

Examples

# get from AWS using the default profile in ~/.aws/credentials
git remote add example_1_ec2 aws+ec2::/describe-instances
git remote add example_1_catalog aws+ec2::/catalog
git remote add example_1_cwListMetrics aws+cw::/list-metrics

# Specific aws endpoint
git remote add example_3 aws+ec2::http://ec2.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/describe-instances

# use a specific profile and AWS default endpoints
git remote add example_2 aws+ec2::profile@/describe-instances

Pull the data

git fetch example_1_ec2
git fetch example_1_catalog
