Cortex + Steampipe

Steampipe is an open-source zero-ETL engine to instantly query cloud APIs using SQL.

Cortex is the Internal Developer Portal eliminating “developer tax” with paved paths to production. Create, catalog, score, and drive action to continuously improve software.

For example:

select 
  tag,
  repository,
  owner_teams
from 
  cortex_entity 
where
  type = 'service'
limit 
  10;

Get started

Install

Download and install the latest:

steampipe plugin install smirl/cortex

Credentials

You will need a Cortex API Token to authenticate with the API.

https://docs.cortex.io/api/rest

Configuration

The configuration for the plugin is simple and requires just the API Token and optional base url if you use self hosted cortex.

To connection to different instances, simply use a token from that other hosted instance.

Environment variables can be used to override these configuration options.

connection "cortex" {
    plugin    = "smirl/cortex"

    # API key from cortex.io for your instance
    # If the environment variable CORTEX_API_KEY is defined it will be overriden
    # api_key = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_CORTEX_API_KEY"

    # The BASE URL of your self hosted instance
    # If the environment variable CORTEX_BASE_URL is defined it will be overriden
    # base_url = "https://app.cortex.mycompany.com"
}
