-- The goal of this script is to trim messages that have been processed by
-- all extant groups from the a given Redis stream. It returns the number
-- of messages that were deleted from the stream, if any. I make no
-- guarantees about its performance, particularly if the stream is large
-- and not fully processed (so a simple XTRIM isn't possible).

-- First off, bail out early if the stream doesn't exist.

I've been working with Apache Kafka for over 7 years. I inevitably find myself doing the same set of activities while I'm developing or working with someone else's system. Here's a set of Kafka productivity hacks for doing a few things way faster than you're probably doing them now. 🔥

• Show me all my Kafka topics and their partitions, replicas, and consumers
• Show me the contents of a topic
• Create a Kafka topic
• Produce messages to a Kafka topic
• Validate the schema of messages before producing to a topic
• Do all of this at a distance

Ansible invocation with assumed IAM role

How it works

• boto3 initializes a session using the specified profile, for which it assumes a role as configured in your ~/.aws/config
• Python script with above session initialization prints out shell-compatible environment variables of the temporary credentials
• Wrapper script sets these a la eval
• By the time Ansible runs, the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY and AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN (for boto2) / AWS_SESSION_TOKEN (for boto3) are all set, and are consumed by boto2 in the inventory script and other boto2-based modules
