# This can be useful within bootstrapping scripts ("user-data"). | |

# JSON for this looks like: | |

# { | |
# "Version": "2012-10-17", | |
# "Statement": [ | |
# { | |
# "Effect": "Allow", | |
# "Action": "ec2:DescribeTags", | |
# "Resource": "*" | |
# } | |
# ] | |
# } | |
# Define the tag you want to get the value for | |
KEY=Name | |
# Install AWS CLI (you could just do 'apt-get install awscli' although you'll | |
# get an older version). | |
