Inventory command to bootstrap a manifest file for the Impact Framework #462

Open jnioche opened 4 months ago

jnioche commented 4 months ago

The Impact Framework from the Green Software Foundation takes as input a manifest file. This is a yaml file listing the resources (e.g. EC2 instances) and related observations (CPU usage etc...). Given that this is pretty much what we get from the inventory command on the CLI, it would make it easier to bootstrap a manifest file.

The Impact Framework has a plugin for the Boavizta API so the results should be the same as calling the estimate command.

This could of course also be done as a plugin for the Impact Framework instead. There is something similar for Azure already but not for AWS

Yes this would be interresting to see if we can generate this manifest file.

We also have similar feature in cloud scanner backlog: to be able to generate an inventory as file and be able to replay it to get impacts https://github.com/Boavizta/cloud-scanner/issues/352

Format of the manifest file: https://if.greensoftware.foundation/major-concepts/manifest-file/

Not sure if there is an associated json schema.
