AWS Detailed Billing CSV Parser & Reporting Tool

Setup

See the AWS docs for how to set up programmatic access to your billing.

Once this is done, a CSV file will be written (and updated) to the bucket you gave on the form.

To use tag-based costs breakdown you need to give a tag like e.g. "BILLING" with a relevant value to your EC2 instances, S3 buckets, ELBs etc.

Otherwise the script will just break down your costs per service and service type (e.g. ec2 * BoxUsage vs ec2 * EBS)

Dependencies

$ sudo pip install boto cyclone Twisted

Boto should be configured with an access/secret key pair that allows to read from your bucket that holds the detailed billing CSV file. E.g. check your /etc/boto.cfg for the Credentials section.

Usage

$ python -m aws_billing.server <account-id> <bucket-name>

Then point your browser to localhost:8888 to see the report. Parsing may be a bit long the first time so be patient. Subsequent calls will be cached for a few minutes though.

Contributing

I'm accepting pull requests !

Many aspects of the program can/should be improved :

• UI (the program is writing raw html, a nice CSS would be great)
• command line options (e.g. argparse)
• parsing (sns topics names should be better recognized)
• tagged vs non-tagged resources costs imputation (one should be able to cross the 2 tables)
• daemon mode
• etc

aws_billing's Issues

previous month billing

Hi,
Currently it seems that you can only get the current month billing.
Is there a setting that enable the parsing of previous months?

Thanks
Nicolas

not working

Hi, I can't seen to get it to work, does it parse a billing that technically doesn't have expenses? I would have tough that at least it would list the services.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you
