Synopsis #

kosli snapshot ecs ENVIRONMENT-NAME [flags]

Report a snapshot of running containers in one or more AWS ECS cluster(s) to Kosli.
Skip all filtering flags to report everything running in all clusters in a given AWS account.

Use --clusters and/or --clusters-regex OR --exclude and/or --exclude-regex to filter the clusters to snapshot. You can also filter the services within a cluster using --services and/or --services-regex. Or use --exclude-services and/or --exclude-services-regex to exclude some services. Note that service filtering is applied to all clusters being snapshot.

All filtering options are case-sensitive.

The reported data includes cluster and service names, container image digests and creation timestamps.

To authenticate to AWS, you can either:

  1. provide the AWS static credentials via flags or by exporting the equivalent KOSLI env vars (e.g. KOSLI_AWS_KEY_ID)
  2. export the AWS env vars (e.g. AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID).
  3. Use a shared config/credentials file under the $HOME/.aws

Option 1 takes highest precedence, while option 3 is the lowest.
More details can be found here: https://aws.github.io/aws-sdk-go-v2/docs/configuring-sdk/#specifying-credentials
