Configuring Credentials

Before using aws-es-proxy-py, ensure that you've configured your AWS IAM user credentials. You can use aws cli to configure file with credentials or create it manually. Check ~/.aws/credentials file before running app. It might look like:

[default]
aws_access_key_id = ${MY_ACCESS_KEY}
aws_secret_access_key = ${MY_SECRET_KEY}

Alternatively, just set following environment variables:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=${MY_ACCESS_KEY}
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=${MY_SECRET_KEY}

Run

python3 aws_es_proxy_py --region ${AWS_SERVICE_REGION} --endpoint ${AWS_ES_ENDPOINT}

You can specify local host and port to listen on. Example:

python3 aws_es_proxy_py -r us-west-2 -e https://sample.us-west-2.es.amazonaws.com -lh 0.0.0.0 -p 9200

Run python3 aws_es_proxy_py -h to see details

python3 aws_es_proxy_py -r eu-west-1 -e https://test-es-somerandomvalue.eu-west-1.es.amazonaws.com
