Laravel AWS SSH Client for Log Tailing and Other using Instance ID's and Elastic Beanstalk Applications Names/Environments.

I found a need to want to SSH and tail logs from my EC2 Instances and Elastic Beanstalk Applications. I figured this would be an easier way to do so when working within a Laravel project thanks to Laravel 4.1 and the remoting functionality.

Eventually I'll create a SSH-type Facade that allows for being able to SSH into EC2 instances (or Elastic Beanstalk instances) and run commands through it.

With composer, simply add "atyagi/laravel-aws-ssh": "dev-master" to your composer.json.

Once composer update is ran, add

'Atyagi\LaravelAwsSsh\Providers\LaravelAwsSshServiceProvider',

to the providers array in app/config.php.

At this point, you should see eb:tail and ec2:tail available for use.

• dev-master -- Stable release version
• dev-dev -- Generally stable, but still the main development branch
• tags -- see Packagist (https://packagist.org/packages/atyagi/laravel-aws-ssh) for specific tagged versions. Most releases to master get tagged.

Run Artisan commands as follows:

For tailing Elastic Beanstalk environments logs:

php artisan eb:tail [-u|--user[="..."]] [--keyFile[="..."]] env logFile

where:

• u is the user to SSH as (defaults to config value)
• keyFile is the key file location (defaults to key path value in config)
• env is the Environment name
• logFile is the absolute path of the log file location

For tailing logs on EC2 Instances:

php artisan ec2:tail [-u|--user[="..."]] [--keyFile[="..."]] instanceId logFile

where:

• u is the user to SSH as (defaults to config value)
• keyFile is the key file location (defaults to key path value in config)
• instanceId is the EC2 Instance ID
• logFile is the absolute path of the log file location
