Struggling to understand how to structure Classes and methods /u/redrabbit1984 Python Education

Hi,

I’ve been using Python for years but for simple scripts and IT related things. I’m starting a new project to do with AWS.

​

Data:

AWS has Regions (us-east-1, eu-west-3, etc) Regions have EC-2 instances

​

So my thought is:

Class Instance: xxx Class Region: xxx

My question is, let’s say the script starts and I want to output all the instances. How would that work?

Would Region have a method called: def get_instances(self.region_id) in which it would get all the regions, or would it go to Instance?

Would be great to get an idea of how you’d structure this.

The script will:

List all regions List all instances in the regions and their state Allow the user to stop the instance or start it

And other things after that

Thanks
