IvsChannelsDashboard - Amazon Interactive Video Service (IVS) - UNTESTED
CloudFrontDashboard - Cloudfront metrics (not advanced ones - they cost money!)

Requirements

python3
pip to install the required libraries, namely
- boto3 - the AWS library
- Jinja2 - the template renderer library
You will need the AWS profile setup, this is done via installing the AWS CLI and running aws configure.

Installing

Download and unzip
Install Python dependancies by changing to the folder with the requirements.txt and running
```
  pip install -r requirements.txt
```
configure the script by editing main.py - the two constants to change are
- AWS_PROFILE - the name of a profile you have created on your system (e.g. via "aws configure")
- AWS_REGION - the AWS region to look for resources in and also to create the dashboard in, e.g. eu-west-1
run the script (python maybe python3 on some systems)
```
  python main.py
```

Edit the main.py to pick and choose which dashboards / the AWS profile you use and the region

Change To Jinga2

I've changed the code to use Jinja2 templates to make the code a little easier to read. Need to fully test but it should allow the templates to be quickly changed and edited.

You can edit the Jinga2 templates as desired. If you want to add more parameters, check out the relevant "get_grab_bag()" function which creates the object which is supplied to the Jinja2 template.

TODO

make more generic
test!
build a command line interface
support better filtering by name and tags
support deleting "empty" dashboards
Make the region and profile more flexible (rather than coded)
