EmilyBurak / rclone-queue-directory.sh

Created March 3, 2026 17:05

This is a cron using rclone to transfer files placed in a directory and transfer them to a remote, removing them from the local system. Good for uploading media simply, includes (mac OS) failure notifications and log rotation.

	# Cron to use a directory as a transfer queue to a remote machine
	# Every 1 minute, move files older than 30 seconds, display mac OS notif on fail
	/1 * * * /opt/homebrew/bin/rclone move <QUEUE_DIR> <REMOTE> --min-age 30s --log-file=<LOG_FILE> --log-level INFO \|\| osascript -e 'display notification "rclone upload failed" with title "Upload Error"'

	# Rotate the rclone log file 1x/week

Last active July 4, 2024 14:06

AWS Backup Vaults can't be deleted with running jobs, here's how to clear out the active jobs in one go while printing out the stopped job ids.

	aws backup list-backup-jobs \
	--by-state RUNNING \
	--query 'BackupJobs[].BackupJobId' \
	--output text \| xargs -t -n1 aws backup stop-backup-job --backup-job-id \| echo "All RUNNING state backup jobs stopped."

	aws backup list-backup-jobs \
	--by-state CREATED \
	--query 'BackupJobs[].BackupJobId' \
	--output text \| xargs -t -n1 aws backup stop-backup-job --backup-job-id \| echo "All CREATED state backup jobs stopped."

EmilyBurak / optional_s3_transition.tf

Created June 28, 2024 15:11

An example of how to use dynamic blocks to make s3 storage class transitions optional, inspired by needing to modify child code inheriting from a parent s3 bucket module with transitions enabled by default to suppress Glacier transitions in favor of simply expiring objects.

	# variables.tf
	variable "transition_enabled" {
	default = false
	description = "Enable transition of S3 objects in a given bucket to Glacier storage class"
	type = bool
	}

	variable "transition_to_glacier" {
	default = 30
	description = "The number of days to wait before transitioning an object to Glacier"

terraform ECS state hacky stuff

	# Problem Statement/Use Case: Terraform struggles to manage ECS Task Definitions (think k8s manifests for N containers bundled
	# together) when the image used by the container(s) changes (importantly and especially via. CI/CD like Actions.)
	# It will always want to update the task definition after the image change, which means destroying and recreating it.
	# To avoid this disruption and downtime, this workflow snippet does some wacky stuff with Terraform import and moved blocks
	# as well as editing the constituent code and making sure the repo is up to date as well as the state with the resource.

	# Import block is a block of code used to reference an existing resource for generating code for it
	- name: Create import block
	run: echo -e 'import { \n to = aws_ecs_task_definition.foo \n id = "${{steps.get-task-def.outputs.TASK_DEF_ARN}}"\n}' > generate_import.tf

Terraform import block generation for AWS Resources

	# A script to, with some user help and knowledge of boto3 (or at least its documentation),
	# derive Terraform import blocks from bulk AWS resources. This is very bad and funny to me in retrospect but
	# maybe someone will find it useful or a jumping-off point.
	# I'd maybe do this in Go with https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-exec or something if I did it again.
