AWS Cloud Proxy Extension (experimental)
========================================
[![Install LocalStack Extension](https://localstack.cloud/gh/extension-badge.svg)](https://app.localstack.cloud/extensions/remote?url=git+https://github.com/localstack/localstack-extensions/#egg=localstack-extension-aws-proxy&subdirectory=aws-proxy)

A LocalStack extension to proxy and integrate AWS resources into your local machine.
This enables one flavor of "hybrid" or "remocal" setups where you can easily bridge the gap between LocalStack (local resources) and remote AWS (resources in the real cloud).

⚠️ Please note that this extension is experimental and still under active development.

⚠️ Note: Given that the scope of this extension has recently changed (see [below](#resource-replicator-cli-deprecated)) - it has been renamed from `aws-replicator` to `aws-proxy`.

## Prerequisites

* LocalStack Pro
* Docker
* Python

## AWS Cloud Proxy

The AWS Cloud Proxy can be used to forward certain API calls in LocalStack to real AWS, in order to enable seamless transition between local and remote resources.

**Warning:** Be careful when using the proxy - make sure to _never_ give access to production accounts or any critical/sensitive data!

### Usage

#### Using curl (API)

The proxy can be enabled and disabled via the LocalStack internal API. This is the recommended approach.

1. Start LocalStack and install the AWS Proxy extension (restart LocalStack after installation).

2. Enable the proxy for specific services (e.g., DynamoDB, S3, Cognito) by posting a configuration along with your AWS credentials:
```
$ curl -X POST http://localhost:4566/_localstack/aws/proxies \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "config": {
      "services": {
        "dynamodb": {},
        "s3": {},
        "cognito-idp": {}
      }
    },
    "env_vars": {
      "AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID": "<your-access-key-id>",
      "AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY": "<your-secret-access-key>",
      "AWS_SESSION_TOKEN": "<your-session-token>"
    }
  }'
```

3. Check the proxy status:
```
$ curl http://localhost:4566/_localstack/aws/proxies/status
```

4. Disable the proxy:
```
$ curl -X POST http://localhost:4566/_localstack/aws/proxies/status \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"status": "disabled"}'
```

5. Now, when issuing an API call against LocalStack (e.g., via `awslocal`), the invocation gets forwarded to real AWS and should return data from your real cloud resources.

#### Using the LocalStack Web App

You can also configure the proxy from the LocalStack Web App at https://app.localstack.cloud. Navigate to your instance and use the AWS Proxy extension settings to enable/disable the proxy and manage credentials.

Alternatively, the extension exposes a local configuration UI at http://localhost:4566/_localstack/aws-proxy/index.html (requires starting LocalStack with `EXTRA_CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS=https://aws-proxy.localhost.localstack.cloud:4566`). Use this Web UI to define the proxy configuration (in YAML syntax) and AWS credentials, then save the configuration. To clean up the running proxy container, click "disable" in the UI.

### Resource-specific proxying

As an alternative to forwarding _all_ requests for a particular service, you can also proxy only requests for _specific_ resources to AWS.

For example, assume we own an S3 bucket `my-s3-bucket` in AWS, then we can use the following configuration to forward any requests to `s3://my-s3-bucket` to real AWS, while still handling requests to all other buckets locally in LocalStack:
```
services:
  s3:
    resources:
      # list of ARNs of S3 buckets to proxy to real AWS
      - '.*:my-s3-bucket'
    operations:
      # list of operation name regex patterns (optional)
      - 'Get.*'
      - 'Put.*'
    # optionally, specify that only read requests should be allowed (Get*/List*/Describe*, etc)
    read_only: false
    # optionally, allow invoke/execute operations (e.g., Lambda invocations) alongside read_only mode.
    # execute operations have side-effects and are deliberately excluded from read_only by default.
    execute: false
```

Pass this configuration in the `config` field of the `POST /_localstack/aws/proxies` request body (as shown above).

If we then perform local operations against the S3 bucket `my-s3-bucket`, the proxy will forward the request and will return the results from real AWS:
```
$ awslocal s3 ls s3://my-s3-bucket
2023-05-14 15:53:40        148 my-file-1.txt
2023-05-15 10:24:43         22 my-file-2.txt
```

Any other S3 requests targeting other buckets will be run against the local state in LocalStack itself, for example:
```
$ awslocal s3 mb s3://test123
make_bucket: test123
...
```

A more comprehensive sample, involving local Lambda functions combined with remote SQS queues and S3 buckets, can be found in the `example` folder of this repo.

### Configuration

In addition to the proxy services configuration shown above, the following configs can be used to customize the behavior of the extension itself (simply pass them as environment variables to the main LocalStack container):
* `PROXY_CLEANUP_CONTAINERS`: whether to clean up (remove) the proxy Docker containers once they shut down (default `1`). Can be set to `0` to help debug issues, e.g., if a proxy container starts up and exits immediately.
* `PROXY_LOCALSTACK_HOST`: the target host to use when the proxy container connects to the LocalStack main container (automatically determined by default)
* `PROXY_DOCKER_FLAGS`: additional flags that should be passed when creating the proxy Docker containers

## Resource Replicator CLI (deprecated)

Note: Previous versions of this extension also offered a "replicate" mode to copy/clone (rather than proxy) resources from an AWS account into the local instance.
This functionality has been removed from this extension, and is now available directly in the LocalStack Pro image (see [here](https://docs.localstack.cloud/aws/tooling/aws-replicator)).

If you wish to access the deprecated instructions, they can be found [here](https://github.com/localstack/localstack-extensions/blob/fe0c97e8a9d94f72c80358493e51ce6c1da535dc/aws-replicator/README.md#resource-replicator-cli).
