AWS Reaper

About

The Reaper terminates forgotten AWS resources.

Reaper workflow:

  1. Find all enabled resources, filter them, then fire events based on config
    • Event types include sending emails, posting events to Datadog (Statsd), tagging resources on AWS, stopping or killing resources, and more
    • Reaper uses the Owner tag on resources to notify the owner of the resource with options to Ignore (for a time), Whitelist, Terminate, or Stop each resource they own
  2. Report statistics about the resources that were found
  3. Terminate or Stop abandoned resources after a set amount of time

Caution This app is experimental because:

Building
Command Line Flags
Creating a configuration file

Reaper configuration files should be in toml format. See config/default.toml for an example config.
