A python based package that enables convenient interaction with CloudFormation service boto3 library.
Interacting with AWS CloudFormation service via boto3 is great. However, boto3 is far too low-level library giving you great flexibility but too less productivity. This B.AwsCf library makes interaction with CloudFormation more object-oriented and more high-level. It eliminates things like pagination with "NextToken" and so on.
Biomapas aims to modernise life-science industry by sharing its IT knowledge with other companies and the community. This is an open source library intended to be used by anyone. Improvements and pull requests are welcome.

The project is built and uploaded to PyPi. Install it by using pip.
pip install b_aws_cf
Or directly install it through source.
pip install .
Two main constructs of this library is Stack and Stacks. The
Stack class lets you work with a single stack and Stacks class
lets you work with lists of stacks.
Stack class example.
from b_aws_cf.stack import Stack
# Create stack object just by knowing its name:
stack = Stack.from_name('MyCoolStack')
# Gets this stack's outptus:
outputs = stack.get_outputs()
# Delete this stack:
stack.delete()Stacks class example:
from b_aws_cf.stacks import Stacks
# List all of the stacks in your account:
stacks = Stacks().list()
# Delete all of the stacks with some specific prefix:
Stacks().delete('MyPrefix')The library exposes CLI commands. Run (to find about more):
cf --help
This project has integration tests based on pytest. To run tests, simply run:
pytest
