🚀 Quick Start

Installation

pip install pycloudmesh

Basic Usage

from pycloudmesh import aws_client, azure_client, gcp_client


aws = aws_client("your_access_key", "your_secret_key", "us-east-1")
costs = aws.get_cost_data(start_date="2024-01-01", end_date="2024-01-31")

# Azure Example
azure = azure_client("your_subscription_id", "your_tenant_id", "your_client_id", "your_client_secret")
analysis = azure.get_cost_analysis("/subscriptions/your-subscription-id/", dimensions=["SERVICE", "REGION"])

# GCP Example
gcp = gcp_client("your_project_id", "/path/to/credentials.json")
budgets = gcp.list_budgets(billing_account="your_billing_account")

🛠️ Advanced Usage

Unified Interface

from pycloudmesh import CloudMesh

# Create unified interface
cloudmesh = CloudMesh("aws", access_key="...", secret_key="...", region="us-east-1")

# All methods work the same way regardless of provider
costs = cloudmesh.get_cost_data()
budgets = cloudmesh.list_budgets()
optimizations = cloudmesh.get_optimization_recommendations()

Error Handling

try:
    costs = client.get_cost_data()
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error fetching cost data: {e}")
    # Handle error appropriately

Caching

# Reservation costs are automatically cached
reservation_costs = client.get_reservation_cost()  # Cached for performance

AWS IAM Policies

To use PyCloudMesh with AWS, you'll need to attach the following IAM policies to your user or role:

Cost Explorer Policy (CEPolicy):

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "ce:GetCostAndUsage",
                "ce:GetCostForecast",
                "ce:GetDimensionValues",
                "ce:GetReservationUtilization",
                "ce:GetRightsizingRecommendation",

                "config:PutConfigRule",
                "config:DescribeConfigRules"
            ],
            "Resource": "*"
        }
    ]
}

Azure

# Using service principal creds
azure = azure_client("subscription_id", "tenant_id", "client_id", "client_secret")

# Or using Azure CLI
az login
# Then use the token from az account get-access-token

Azure Scopes: Azure cost management methods require a scope parameter to specify the level at which to query costs:

• Subscription scope: /subscriptions/{subscription-id}/
• Resource Group scope: /subscriptions/{subscription-id}/resourceGroups/{resource-group-name}/
• Billing Account scope: /providers/Microsoft.Billing/billingAccounts/{billing-account-id}
• Management Group scope: /providers/Microsoft.Management/managementGroups/{management-group-id}/

Example:

# Query costs at subscription level
costs = azure.get_cost_data("/subscriptions/your-subscription-id/")

# Query costs at resource group level
costs = azure.get_cost_data("/subscriptions/your-subscription-id/resourceGroups/your-rg/")

GCP

# Using service account key file
gcp = gcp_client("project_id", "/path/to/service-account-key.json")

# Or using Application Default Credentials
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/service-account-key.json"

GCP IAM Permissions

To use PyCloudMesh with GCP, your service account needs the following roles:

Basic Cost Management:

• roles/billing.viewer - View billing information
• roles/bigquery.user - Access BigQuery billing export
• roles/recommender.viewer - View optimization recommendations

Advanced Governance (Optional):

• roles/cloudasset.viewer - View resource inventory for compliance
• roles/orgpolicy.policyViewer - View organization policies
• roles/resourcemanager.projectIamAdmin - Manage project labels

Example Service Account Setup:

# Grant basic roles
gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding YOUR_PROJECT_ID \
    --member="serviceAccount:YOUR_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL" \
    --role="roles/billing.viewer"

gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding YOUR_PROJECT_ID \
    --member="serviceAccount:YOUR_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL" \
    --role="roles/bigquery.user"

# Grant advanced governance roles (optional)
gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding YOUR_PROJECT_ID \
    --member="serviceAccount:YOUR_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL" \
    --role="roles/cloudasset.viewer"

gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding YOUR_PROJECT_ID \
    --member="serviceAccount:YOUR_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL" \
    --role="roles/orgpolicy.policyViewer"
