cloud-detect

About

cloud-detect is a Python module that determines a host's cloud provider. Highly inspired by the Go based Satellite, cloud-detect uses the same techniques (file systems and provider metadata) to properly identify cloud providers.

Features

• Supports identification of Alibaba, AWS, Azure, Digital Ocean, GCP, Oracle Cloud and Vultr hosts.
• Fast and supports asyncio
• Logging integration.
• Small and extensible.

Usage

>>> from cloud_detect import provider
>>> provider()
'aws'

>>> provider() # when tested in local/non-supported cloud env
'unknown'

Right now the only possible responses are: 'alibaba', 'aws', 'azure', 'do', 'gcp', 'oci', 'vultr' or 'unknown'

You can get the list of supported providers using

>>> from cloud_detect import SUPPORTED_PROVIDERS

Installation

Via pip:

pip install cloud-detect

Examples

Termination-handler uses cloud-detect to keep the handling of termination notices on spot/preemptible instances cloud-agnostic, making easier to operate the same tooling in various distinct environments.
