Add function to terminate EC2 instances

SUMMARY

In an EKS cluster environment is very common to use spot instances as worker nodes since applications are ephemeral same as the worker nodes(spot/on-demand instances). In order to save costs on development and non-productive environments shutdown/terminate instances that were created by Karpenter/ClusterAutoScaler/ASG nightly and on weekends is very handy since that just stop instances might include .

ISSUE TYPE
  • Create a function to implement "terminate_instances()" boto3 method instead of "stop_instances", that way both options are available to the final user.

As a workaround I forked the repo and edited the function from "stop_instances()" to "terminate_instances()".

Just released a new version including redshift scheduler.

Now, you have the option to terminate autoscaling instances instead of merely stopping them. To do this, set the Terraform variable 'autoscaling_terminate_instances' to 'true'."
