Searches AWS CloudWatch Logs with Insights queries and flexible time ranges from your command line.

NAME
    qaws.py -- Search AWS CloudWatch logs
SYNOPSIS
    qaws.py [-g groups...] \
            [-t starttime | starttime endtime] \
            [-q query]
DESCRIPTION
    -g --groups groups ...
        Specify 1 to N logging groups like "/ecs/someservice1"
    -t --time starttime | starttime endtime
        Specify starttime in history to more recent endtime in present.
        Possible formats for time specification is:
            ISO time:           "2000-01-01T00:00:00"
            Epoch in seconds:   "1590314700"
            Time relative to Now:      
                "1h"                    1 hour ago
                "1h 60m"                2 hours ago
                "1h 60m 3600s"          3 hours ago
                "3600s 60m 1h"          3 hours ago as well (order doesn't matter)
                "3600s 3600s 3600s"     3 hours ago as well (items are repeatable)
                "1y 1mo 1w 1d 1h 1m 1s" is possible as well
    -g --query query
        Query exactly as it is usually written in AWS CloudWatch Insights in Web Console:
            fields @timestamp, @message 
            | filter @message like 'event' 
            | limit 10"
    - It can take few minutes (~2 minutes) until logs appears in CloudWatch and therefore fetching logs 
        with '-t "1m"' may not return any results
    - Even if you set '|limit 1' in --query then CloudWatch will anyway search over entire specified '-t "10d"' 
        history which can take lot of time
EXAMPLES
    qaws.py \
        --groups      "/ecs/myservice0" \
        --time        "1h" \
        --query       "fields @message"
    qaws.py \
        --groups      "/ecs/myservice0" "/ecs/myservice1" "/ecs/myservice2" \
        --time        "1h 30m" \
        --query       "fields @message"
    qaws.py \
        --groups      "/ecs/myservice0" \
        --time        "1h" "30m" \
        --query       "fields @timestamp @message | filter @message like 'event' | limit 15"
    qaws.py \
        --groups      "/ecs/myservice0" \
        --time        "2020-05-24T00:00:00" "2020-05-24T12:00:00" \
        --query       "fields @message | filter @message like 'event'"
    qaws.py \
        --groups      "/ecs/myservice0" \
        --time        "1y" "2020-05-24T00:00:00" \
        --query       "fields @message | filter @message like 'event'"
    qaws.py \
        --groups      "/ecs/myservice0" \
        --time        "2020-05-24T00:00:00" "5h" \
        --query       "fields @message | filter @message like 'event' | limit 15"
