Aws-Vault

I’ve since evolved this script a bit and have published it on GitHub: https://github.com/ivantomica/AWSVault To log in into AWS I prefer to use small function which calls aws-vault utility and gets URL to login to specific AWS account and then opens that AWS account in its own container tab in Firefox. Reason for this is that my natural habitat is terminal, or textual interface in general, so invoking thing from there instead of doing 20 clicks through interface somehow feels better to me....

There is this nice utility which helps you with managing AWS credentials called aws-vault. It is quite nice to use it as it allows ad-hoc login as a specific profile via web browser, without the need for entering your credentials or performing 3 step process to log in, just: aws-vault login profile Where “profile” is specific AWS profile, and voila, you’re in. Besides that, it also keeps your credentials safe in one of the supported backends....
