If you are struggling with writing the exact right boto3 or AWS CLI or JavaScript code snippets, this tool saves you a huge amount of time. Not only is it a really smart and clever idea but its implementation is awesome. It doesn't work for every single API call but it works enough to give you a decent skeleton. Great job! | |

Not fully functional. Tried to record creating a DocumentDB instance and nothing was recorded in Terraform. | |

What a great Tool! Ian McKay has provided a solution that has been needed for a very long time. How many times do you find yourself starting from scratch on a CloudFormation Template or even searching for something that is close to your needs (but not quite), then trying to make the required modifications. Console Recorder gives you an incredible start. Maybe you are new to CloudFormation and really need that extra assistance. Or maybe you know CloudFormation and want to learn Terraform. This is the tool for you. And probably one of the best aspects is the support Ian gives this tooling. He is more that happy to answer questions or take enhancement ideas. We had a meetup meeting on Console Recorder in the US, and Ian gracially got on a call with us for Q&A... how many devlopers would ever do that? |
