need the amazon access key id and the aws secret access key which you can get from the amazon's security settings under the amazon aws account. to make our code simple and i created a function just to store the account information, as an example we will retrieve only the running instances [cc lang="text"] def login(): account = "account name" aws_access_key = 'paste the access key here' aws_secret_key = 'paste the secret key here' running(aws_access_key,aws_secret_key,account) [/cc] the function account() will return all the instances for the above account [cc lang="text"] def account(a,s): access_key = a secret_key = s regions = boto.ec2.regions(aws_access_key_id=access_key,aws_secret_access_key=secret_key,is_secure=False) eu = regions[0] conn_eu = eu.connect(aws_access_key_id=access_key,aws_secret_access_key=secret_key) inst = conn_eu.get_all_instances() return inst [/cc] and we pass these onto the running function..which will list the mentioned attributes [cc lang="text"] def running(a,s,h): host = h f = open("/tmp/test.txt", "a") sto = sys.stdout sys.stdout = f print "-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------" print "RUNNING INSTANCES ON ", host print "ID\t\tAMI-ID\t\tArch.\tType\t\tState\tLaunch Time\t\t\tPublic DNS\t\t\t\t\t\tPrivate IP\t\tName" access = a secret = s instt = account(access,secret) for i in instt: for r in i.instances: if 'running' in r.state: print "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s" % (r.id,r.image_id,r.architecture,r.instance_type,r.state,r.launch_time,r.public_dns_name,r.private_ip_address,r.tags['Name']) f.close() sys.stdout = sto [/cc] hope this helps... ]]> http://krisindigitalage.com/2011/12/13/python-amazon-ec2-retrieve-instance-values/feed/ 0
