ecr-cleaner

ecr-cleaner deletes old images based on the time they have been pushed. It can clean up a specific repository as well as all repos within an aws account.

Algorithm

  1. Retrieve repo from ecr
  2. Get repo images
  3. Add all images without tags to deletion
  4. Sort the remaining images by 'Pushed at' order
  5. Add n oldest images to deletion
  6. Delete images from the repository

Installation (Not Used)

go get github.com/bandsintown/ecr-cleaner

Default values

aws.region = us-east-1
dry-run = false
keep = 100

Examples

clean up all repos

ecr-cleaner -aws.region=us-east-1

clean up my-awesome-repo

ecr-cleaner -aws.region=us-east-1 -repo=my-awesome-repo

go for a dry run

ecr-cleaner -aws.region=us-east-1 -repo=my-awesome-repo -dry-run=true

leave n images in repo

ecr-cleaner -aws.region=us-east-1 -repo=my-awesome-repo -keep=5

Note: Most of the parameters could be specified without '=' sign. But because of the usage of parse flag it is important to think about adding '=' signs for boolean parameters, otherwise the parsing of the command line's options stops. Issue hilighted here.

Deploying as lambda to aws (Used)

If you wish to clean up your repositories periodically you can do this with the help of terraform. In the root of the repo:

  1. you have to fork the repo
  2. execute make package
  3. go to into terraform folder
  4. run the init.sh script, it will initialize terraform
  5. set up the needed variables
    • cron expects a string in aws cron syntaxt (0 3 1 * ? * run lambda at 3am 1. of each month)
    • aws_region is the region in which you want to deploy the lambda
    • repo_region is the region in which you store your ec2 repositories
    • repository is the repo you want to process
    • dry-run (boolean) if you want to dry run
  6. run terraform

If you want to keep the state, the easiest way is to create a shell script and write the remote state to s3. Here is an example:

#!/bin/bash
terraform get -update
terraform remote config \
    -backend=s3\
    -backend-config="bucket=bit-ops-terraform" \
    -backend-config="key=state/service/ecr-cleanup/ops.tfstate" \
    -backend-config="region=us-east-1"

Execute the script: get remote state from s3 or create one and execute terraform afterwards.

Run as Docker container (Not Used)

Build:

docker build -t ecr-cleaner .

Run:

docker run -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your-access-key-id> -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your-secret-access-key> -it --rm ecr-cleaner -dry-run=true -aws.region=us-east-1
