A basic boto3 based tool for retrieving information from running EC2 instances.

Thanks a lot!!

@TacMechMonkey, is there anyway we can filter Instance Status for specific VPCID? resource does not have status option.

running_instances = ec2.instances.filter(
Filters=[{
'Name': 'instance-status.status',
'Values': ['impaired']
},
{
'Name': 'vpc-id',
'Values': [vpc]
}]
)

@nakkanar you're on the right track, you'll have to use the ec2 client:
https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/ec2.html#EC2.Client.describe_instance_status

Yeah you can specify the region in the constructor, but just in case what do you mean by services ? or what you wanted to say was instances.

you can use something like this and put in lambda. This will give you all the asg based on a name/tag you provide , list all the instance id's and then you can get things like IP/key etc on the id's

import boto3

client = boto3.client('autoscaling')
clientips=boto3.client('ec2')
paginator = client.get_paginator('describe_auto_scaling_groups')
page_iterator = paginator.paginate(
   PaginationConfig = {
      'PageSize': 100
   }
)

def lambda_handler(event, context):

   filtered_asgs = page_iterator.search(
      'AutoScalingGroups[] | [?contains(Tags[?Key==`{}`].Value, `{}`)]'.format('type', 'node')
   )

   for asg in filtered_asgs:
      print (asg['AutoScalingGroupName'])
      response = client.describe_auto_scaling_groups(
             AutoScalingGroupNames=[
        asg['AutoScalingGroupName'],
      ],
      )
      instances=response["AutoScalingGroups"][0]["Instances"]
      instanceids=[]
      for i in instances:
         instanceids.append(i["InstanceId"])
         instaneips=[]
         reservations = clientips.describe_instances(InstanceIds=[i['InstanceId']]).get("Reservations")
         for reservation in reservations:
            for instance in reservation['Instances']:
               print(instance.get("PublicIpAddress"))
