queue_manager

Overview

This project allow us to create SQS queues which can be subscribed to SNS topics. We use IAM users to provide privilege to those SQS and SNS resources

Bootstrap

In order to configure your environment, the queue_manager will pick up the configuration files from those paths:

• ~/.awslglib.ini
• /etc/awslglib.ini

You can use the config file you wish. It has a hierarchy, meaning, the file on the top will be picked up first.

How looks that config file?

[AUTH]
AWS_ACCESS_KEY=XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
AWS_SECRET_KEY=XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
region=us-east-1
account_id=XXXXXXXXX

Examples

Creating a simple sqs queue:

./queue_manager.py --iam sqs_stg-service4service_domain_events --sqs stg-service_domain_events --sqsact '*'

Creating a simple sqs queue with limited privileges:

./queue_manager.py --iam sqs_stg-service4service_domain_events --sqs stg-service_domain_events --sqsact SendMessage DeleteMessage

Creating a sqs and sns and subscribe that sqs as a sns topic

./queue_manager.py --iam sqs_stg-service4service_domain_events --sqs stg-service_domain_events --sqsact SendMessage DeleteMessage ReceiveMessage --sns stg-service_domain_events --snsact ReceiveMessage

TODO

• To improve policy template
• Do not attach policies until all resources are created
• Allow a sqs to subscribe to multiple sns topics
