cueitup

✨ Overview

cueitup lets you inspect messages in an AWS SQS queue in a simple and deliberate manner. It was built to simplify the process of investigating the contents of messages being pushed to an SNS topic. You can pull one or more messages on demand, peruse through them in a list, and, if needed, persist them to your local filesystem.
