Usage

Get the cost and usage for a space ID

By default, this will get the month to date costs for a space id (based on the spinup:spaceid tag).

Get cloudwatch metrics widgets URL from S3 for an instance ID

This will get the passed metric(s) for the passed instance ID or container cluster/service in a image/png graph for the past 1 day by default, cache it in S3 and return the URL. URLs are cached in the API for 5 minutes, the images should be purged from the S3 cache on a schedule. It's also possible to pass the start time, end time and period (e. 300s for 300 seconds, 5m for 5 minutes). Query parameters must follow the CloudWatch Metric Widget Structure.

Request

Response

Image Caching

When image urls are returned for metrics graph data, they are cached in the image cache. The default implementation of this cache is an S3 bucket where the URLs are returned in the response (and cached in the data cache).

Data Caching

AWS Cost Explorer data and metrics graph image url is cached (using go-cache). The cache TTLs are configurable via config.json: CacheExpireTime and CachePurgeTime. The cache can also be purged via daemon restart.

Authentication

Authentication is accomplished via a pre-shared key. This is done via the X-Auth-Token header.
