Spotr simplifies launching and destroying an AWS spot instance.

Quick Start

First, install the library and set a default region:

$ pip install spotr

Next, set up credentials and region (in e.g. ~/.aws/config):

[default]
aws_access_key_id = YOUR_KEY
aws_secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET
region=us-west-1

Then, from a Python interpreter:

$ spotr launch --type p2.xlarge --ami ami-4bf20033 --max-bid .030 --key-name aws-key-fast-ai

When you’re done with the instance, create a snapshot and detroy it with:

$ spotr destroy
