Keep AWS instances stopped on out of office hours

Project description

stayontop

Development instances on AWS EC2 need to be shutdown off-hours.

This small project tries to address this need providing a clear config file in yaml.

  • You can specify which instances must be stopped/running all the time.

  • By default all instances are set to be stopped off-hours

  • You can set all instances with a specific project tag to be open

  • Assumes office hours are between 07:00 - 19:00

  • Assumes EC2 instance tags: “project”

  • Assumes EC2 instance name matches instance tag “Name”
