- I want to extract all the autoscaling groups from AWS
- AWS provides response in multiple pages with
NextToken
pointing to next page. So need keep looking forNextToken
and pull the group names - If there is no
NextToken
, then quit.
In python, I do:
import boto3
import pprint
session = boto3.session.Session(region_name='us-west-2')
client = session.client('autoscaling')
resp = client.describe_auto_scaling_groups()
pprint.pprint(resp)
while 'NextToken' in resp:
resp = client.describe_auto_scaling_groups(NextToken=resp['NextToken'])
pprint.pprint(resp)
I followed similar logic in go and came up with below code:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/aws"
"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/aws/session"
"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/service/autoscaling"
)
func main() {
sess, err := session.NewSession(&aws.Config{Region: aws.String("us-west-2")})
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Failed to create session: ", sess)
return
}
svc := autoscaling.New(sess)
params := &autoscaling.DescribeAutoScalingGroupsInput{}
resp, err := svc.DescribeAutoScalingGroups(params)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Something Went wrong")
return
}
fmt.Println(resp)
for {
if resp.NextToken == nil {
fmt.Println("No more pages left")
break
}
params := &autoscaling.DescribeAutoScalingGroupsInput{
NextToken: aws.String(*resp.NextToken),
}
resp, err := svc.DescribeAutoScalingGroups(params)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Something Went wrong")
return
}
fmt.Println(resp)
}
}
QUESTION: My go code goes to the 2nd page and then keep looping over the same 2nd page. It does not proceed to 3rd page (when there is NextToken
in resp
) or it does not quit (when there is no NextToken
in resp
).
