Delete resources in all regions?

[yosef-elementryx]

I'm looking to delete all the resources currently in my account regardless of region. Is there a way to delete resources in all regions without specifying each?

Hello @yosef-elementryx. There is no way to do it without specifying every region. You have to specify each one. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html for a full list of regions.

@svenwltr Would this issue and or project in general be good for a GoLang newbie looking to contribute ? I'm keen.

Hello @wesgreentree, before we can judge the complexity, we need to agree on how the configuration file should look like. Generally it should not be that hard, since the AWS SDK contains a list of all regions somewhere.

@svenwltr Is anything on this page helpful ? https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/aws/endpoints/

This contains the mentioned list of regions, but we still need a proposal on how the aws-nuke config file should look like.

There will never be a region called "ALL", so just use that.

aws ec2 describe-regions --query "Regions[*].RegionName" --output text | xargs -n 1 | sort

It would be very beneficial to get this feature without actually having to generate this list all the time.

Hello, not sure what is blocking here, wouldn't a all-region: true or regions: ["all"] be fine for the config part? It looks like we are kind of maintaining a list of all regions in this issue while we could fetch it dynamically instead :) We would have to care about disabled regions though if doing so

This is a sample AWS Nuke configuration file

Please refer to the documentation for more information:

https://github.com/rebuy-de/aws-nuke

AWS Nuke will only act on resources within the specified regions.

By default, if no regions are specified, AWS Nuke will not act on any resources.

regions:

• ap-south-1
• ap-northeast-3
• ap-northeast-2
• ap-southeast-1
• ap-southeast-2
• ap-northeast-1
• ca-central-1
• eu-central-1
• eu-west-1
• eu-west-2
• eu-west-3
• eu-north-1
• me-south-1
• sa-east-1
• us-east-1
• us-east-2
• us-west-1
• us-west-2

account-blocklist:

• "999999999999" # production

accounts: "<Account-id>": {} # aws-nuke-example
