Terminal Usage

Usage: ectwo [commands...] -c [config] -p [profile] -r [regions]
 
Options:
  -r  regions to use        
  -i  interactive             [default: false]
  -c  configuration location  [required]  [default: "/usr/local/etc/ectwo/conf"]
  -p  profile to use          [required]  [default: "default"]

You'll first need to define your configuration file in /usr/local/etc/ectwo/conf.js. Here's a template:

module.exports = {
  "profiles": {
    "default": {
      "regions": ["us-east-1", "us-west-1"],
      "key": "AWS_KEY",
      "secret": "AWS_SECRET"
    },
    "another-profile": {
      "key": "AWS_KEY",
      "secret": "AWS_SECRET"
    }
  }
}

profiles are used to help ectwo determine what account to use.

Examples

Creating a new key-pair, and saving to disc:

$ ectwo -r us-east-1 "keyPairs().create('some-key').save()" ↩
------------------------------------

Profile: default
Regions: us-east-1

------------------------------------

us-east-1.keyPairs() 
us-east-1.keypairs.create("some-key") .. 2.79 s
us-east-1.some-key.save() 
[
  {
    "_id": "some-key",
    "name": "some-key",
    "region": "us-east-1",
    "fingerprint": "FINGERPRINT",
    "material": "MATERIAL"
  }
]
save keypair to /Users/craig/keys/us-east-1/some-key.pem

Finding all images across all regions:

$ ectwo -r us-east-1 "images().find()" ↩
------------------------------------
 
Profile: default
Regions: us-west-1, us-west-2, us-east-1, eu-west-1, sa-east-1, 
ap-southeast-1, ap-southeast-2, ap-northeast-1
 
------------------------------------
 
us-west-1.images() 
us-west-2.images() 
us-east-1.images() 
eu-west-1.images() 
sa-east-1.images() 
ap-southeast-1.images() 
ap-southeast-2.images() 
ap-northeast-1.images() 
us-west-1.images.find() 
us-west-2.images.find() 
us-east-1.images.find() 
eu-west-1.images.find() 
sa-east-1.images.find() 
ap-southeast-1.images.find() 
ap-southeast-2.images.find() 
ap-northeast-1.images.find() 
[
  {
    "_id""ami-4d6f2724",
    "state""available",
    "ownerId""258306512238",
    "isPublic""false",
    "region""us-east-1",
    "name""test",
    "type""machine",
    "kernelId""aki-825ea7eb",
    "platform""linux",
    "architecture""x86_64",
    "virtualizationType""paravirtual",
    "tags"{
      "abbaa""ff",
      "fds""fds",
      "abba""fdsfs",
      "fdsfs""fdsfs"
    }
  }
]

You can also run ectwo in interactive mode by adding the -i flag. For example:

$ ectwo -r us-east-1 -i ↩
------------------------------------
 
Profile: default
Regions: us-east-1
 
------------------------------------
 
> addresses().find({ instanceId: undefined }).one().attach("i-b43313de")
us-east-1.addresses() 
us-east-1.addresses.find({}) 
us-east-1.54.225.244.40.attach("i-b43313de") .. 2.50 s
[
  {
    "_id""54.225.244.40",
    "publicIp""54.225.244.40",
    "domain""standard",
    "region""us-east-1",
    "instanceId""i-b43313de"
  }
]
> instances().find({ _id: "i-b43313de" }).pluck("address")
us-east-1.instances() 
us-east-1.instances.find({"_id":"i-b43313de"}) 
us-east-1.i-b43313de.pluck("address") 
[
  {
    "address""54.225.244.40"
  }
]

Chaining

ectwo also supports chaining. Here are a few examples:
