aws-credentials

Retrieve AWS credentials from the AWS CLI configuration and execute a command using these credentials via environment variables.

It simplifies launching a command that does not support .aws/config or AWS SSO.

Usage

Usage: aws-credentials [options] [argv...]
  -export
    	Output AWS credentials as export variables format
  -profile string
    	profile
  -region string
    	region
  -version
    	Show version

# Default credential resolution by AWS SDK
$ aws-credentials aws sts get-caller-identity

# Specify profile
$ aws-credentials --profile SOME_PROFILE aws sts get-caller-identity

If any argv is not provided, it will output the credentials in JSON format.

# Output JSON format
$ aws-credentials
{
  "AccessKeyID": "...",
  "SecretAccessKey": "...",
  "SessionToken": "...",
  "Source": "SSOProvider",
  "CanExpire": true,
  "Expires": "2024-05-15T14:01:15Z"
}

# Output export variables format
$ aws-credentials --export
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="..."
