List resources across regions

Open erikcw opened this issue 8 years ago • 6 comments

Would be great to be able to override the region set in the config with a command line flag. In addition to specific regions, the ability to list resources in all regions would be very useful. Maybe add a new column to the output in that case with the region name.

I don't disagree with this, in some cases this could be very necessary, but... in other cases it shouldn't be necessary at all

Clear and easy listing of multi-region cloud resources (subnets, instances, groups, users, etc.) on AWS EC2, IAM and S3: awless list

these lists seem to require regions. by default I'd expect them to be multi-regional, with the ability to filter by region.

There are two interesting points here:

  • the ability to change a config param (here the region) with a command line flag. I created an issue for that #55.
  • the ability to list resources from all regions with a flag, which is something that we want to do in the future. I renamed this issue in this direction.

Note that, in 0.0.17, you can use the global flag --aws-region to switch region. This issue stays open, in order to list resources on several regions together.

Nice request! Stumbled upon this when was searching for nice and easy solution to make chat notification with all running instances (all regions).

It is definitely on our roadmap, but we have scar resources at the moment to implement it. So it will not be in the next v0.1.10 release.

Any update on this request would be great.

For my use-case, I would like awless to list all s3 buckets in all regions since aws s3 ls does that already :)
