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"

A sample config file:

global:
   restricted:
      projects:
            - BI
            - CRM
            - PUSHAPP
   keep_running:
      instances:
            - sybase.acme.com
            - hana01.acme.com
   keep_stopped:
      instances:
            - sybase.acme.com
            - hanadyn.acme.com
            - apush.acme.com
   weekend_on:
      projects:
            - BI
   aws_boto_profile: SYS

Use case #1: Please keep FMS project stopped at weekends

• Do not put it on weekend_on anywhere in the config
• By default all projects are stopped unless stated otherwise
• With the following config SAP project instances will be running during weekends

global:
   weekend_on:
      projects:
           - SAP

Use case #2: I want webdev01 instance to be running this night

date_of_today:
   keep_running:
       instances:
          - webdev01

Use case #3: Please keep webdev01 instance stopped on off-hours

• Unless stated otherwise all instances are stopped on off-hours

Use case #4: Please keep dbdev01 instance stopped on working hours

global:
    keep_stopped:
         instances:
             - dbdev01

Use case #5: Please keep dbdev01 instance stopped on 29.12.2015

• Add the following to the config
• Remove from the global config if necessary

29.12.2015:
    keep_stopped:
         instances:
             - dbdev01
