Using Boto to determine if an AWS AMI is available
I am using Boto to create an AMI of one of my EC2 boxes, and then I would like to spin up more boxes with that AMI, but the run_instances command is barking that my AMI is not available yet.
How can I use boto to query aws to find out when my ami is ready?
The EC2 connection supports a method to get_image
But the Image does not have any sort of status attribute
python amazon-web-services boto

In addition to "pending" and "available" there is also the "failed" state. This is the full set of AMI states available.

I can write a simple function using boto3
def check_ami_exists(ami_id, region):
client = boto3.client('ec2', region_name = region)
response = client.describe_images()
for image in response['Images']:
if ami_id == image['ImageId']:
return True
return False
