Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

aws-es-curl

Simple curl-like utility with V4 request signing support for AWS Elasticsearch Service.

Install

npm install aws-es-curl -g

Prequisities

  • Make sure your Elasticsearch domain is configured with access policy template "Allow or deny access to one or more AWS accounts or IAM users".
  • Make sure your IAM credentials are discoverable:
    • via environment variables AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
    • via aws-cli authentication profile (defaults to profile default)
    • via instance profile on EC2 instance (with IAM role granting access to ES domain)

Usage

aws-es-curl tries to figure out right set of credentials to use automatically. If credentials are not set through env variables, nor authentication profile is specified, it tries to fetch credentials from EC2 metadata service. This causes unneeded delay on development environment when default settings are used, because metadata call will fail after couple of attempts. If this is a problem, just specify profile or credentials via environment and the call will be skipped.

Simple search from AWS Elasticsearch domain.

$ aws-es-curl -X GET http://domain-search-jkewre3423432kfdsax.eu-west-1.es.amazonaws.com/_search

Specify local AWS CLI profile via AWS_PROFILE environment variable or using --profile <profile_name> option.

$ aws-es-curl --profile another-local-aws-profile http://domain-search-jkewre3423432kfdsax.eu-west-1.es.amazonaws.com/_search
$ AWS_PROFILE=another-local-aws-profile aws-es-curl http://domain-search-jkewre3423432kfdsax.eu-west-1.es.amazonaws.com/_search

Pipe queries to ElasticSearch.

$ echo '{ "size": 0, "aggs": { "types": { "term": { "field": "_type" } } } }' | aws-es-curl -X POST http://domain-search-jkewre3423432kfdsax.eu-west-1.es.amazonaws.com/_search
