@mlimaloureiro interesting, do you see this as returning the results and then listing the total count at the end?
From a technical standpoint, this might be more involved to implement. Currently SAWS
builds the command and sends it off to the awscli
to execute and output the results. To get the count you might need to parse the output or use boto
.
yes we would need to parse the output or use boto for that purpose. was thinking about this and don't know if it would make sense to be an actual command instead of an option what do you think ?
aws ec2 count [options]
and yes technically I think it's a decision to make. Do you feel we should stick to awscli or include boto for some tasks?

@mlimaloureiro hmm, I think it might be helpful to check out some more examples of the awscli
to see if it would flow better one way or the other.

I think boto
is great and it seems like a good solution in this case versus parsing raw text output from the awscli
. Also, it seems awscli
uses boto
under the hood.
yes I agree on both points, and really think boto will be sooner or later an inevitable asset for this project
