Athenai

Athenai snapshots your Athena history to S3.

Usage

Athenai requires AWS credentials to run, and also needs to know which region to use when talking to the Athena API. Make sure that AWS_REGION is set, and that AWS SDK has access to credentials, either through environment variables or an EC2 metadata server.

Athenai will write the history to the S3 location given by the HISTORY_BASE_URI environment variable. If you also provide STATE_URI it will store its state in that location so that the next run will only read state up until the point where the previous run started.

You can run Athenai from a checkout, like this:

$ bundle install
$ HISTORY_BASE_URI=s3://my-athena-history/data/ STATE_URI=s3://my-athena-history/state.json bundle exec bin/athenai save-history

or with Docker, like this:

$ docker run -it --rm -e AWS_REGION=us-east-2 -e HISTORY_BASE_URI=s3://my-athena-history/data/ -e STATE_URI=s3://my-athena-history/state.json burtcorp/athenai

Development

You run the tests with:

$ bundle exec rake spec
