Motivation

This PR is a step towards renaming the aws-replicator extension to the more fitting name aws-proxy, to avoid confusion with the AWS Replicator.

When this project was first developed as an experimental extension, the scope was a bit convoluted, and it tried to address different aspects of enabling hybrid scenarios with LocalStack, including the "replicator" aspect, as well as the "proxy" aspect. The Replicator has graduated in the meantime and is now available as a proper feature in upstream LocalStack (Pro), 🚀 whereas the focus of this extension has been reduced to the Proxy aspect - hence the renaming here.

/cc @nik-localstack Adding you as reviewer since you've recently helped make some changes in this extension. :)

Changes

  • rename extension from localstack-extension-aws-replicator to localstack-extension-aws-proxy
  • rename top-level module from aws_replicator to aws_proxy
  • bump version number to 0.2.0 for this new extension
  • clean up unused code - remove all previous code related to the "replicate" functionality 🧹
  • slightly adjust the README

nit: We could remove the ResourceReplicator interface entirely now that it's not used (from aws_replicator.shared.models)

Great catch, thanks - was able to do a few more cleanups in models and surrounding modules. 👍
