display ec2-name and ip-address as ssh-config or hosts file


Inspired by this instagram engineering blog, I wrote a python script to printout ec2 hostname and ip-address as ssh-config or hosts file format.

In our environment, unfortunately we don't have dns for ec2 hosts, for now. 
I use /etc/hosts. Some people use ssh-config file.

This script may help others who are in similar environment where using ssh-config or hosts file to manage ec2-host mapping.

Usage



ec2-printconfig script
