captain-hook

A photo app with flask, ec2, s3 and dropbox webhooks inspired by PhotosOfBlacklion/captain-hook.

Register a Dropbox app

  • Register a Dropbox app with App Folder access here
  • Generate a new Dropbox OAuth 2 token
  • Update config.py with your App secret, OAuth token and AWS credentials (make sure you've granted full s3 and ec2 access):
DBX_SECRET = b'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
DBX_ACCESS_TOKEN = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
AWS_ACCESS_KEY = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
AWS_SECRET_KEY = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

Start the application

Start the application by running:

python3 main.py --key <your-pem-key>

This will do the following:

  • Create a new ec2 instance (or use an existing one, if you provide an existing instance ID with the --ec2 flag)
  • Create a new s3 bucket (or use an existing one, if you provide an existing bucket name with the --s3 flag)
  • Run a container with a flask application to process incoming webhooks

Options

python3 main.py --key <your-pem-key> [options]

Options:
  --ec2   Name of ec2 instance (if it exists, that instance will be used)   
                                                            [Default: captain-hook]
  --s3    Name of s3 bucket (if it exists, that bucket will be used)        
                                                            [Default: {0:%Y-%m-%d-%H.%M.%S-hook}]

Examples: 
  python3 main.py --key aws-key.pem --ec2 cool-instance --s3 cool-bucket-name
  python3 main.py --key aws-key.pem --ec2 i-05b7ea9dca0117fb9 --s3 2017-10-28-10.55.31-hook

Test it out

  • In your Dropbox application settings, register the webhook endpoint. This should look like: http://<ec2-instance-public-ip>/webook
  • Upload a few images to the newly created Dropbox App folder.
  • Wait for the application to do its magic! Your images should be displayed at your instance's ip address.

To view the logs, connect to your instance and run docker logs captain-py
