Displaying EC2 Instance name using Boto 3

Question

I\'m not sure how to display the name of my instance in AWS EC2 using boto3

This is some of the code I have:

import boto3

ec2 = boto3.r         


        

Answer 1

There may be other ways. But from your code point of view, the following should work.

>>> for i in vpc.instances.all():
...   for tag in i.tags:
...     if tag['Key'] == 'Name':
...       print tag['Value']

One liner solution if you want to use Python's powerful list comprehension:

inst_names = [tag['Value'] for i in vpc.instances.all() for tag in i.tags if tag['Key'] == 'Name']
print inst_names
