This (simple) program lets you, from any working AWS CLI profile, open its web console on your browser. It uses credentials from your CLI, so everything that works with it, works with this.
I recommend pipx:
pipx install git+https://github.com/zoocha/awscli-console
But you may also use pip globally:
pip install --user git+https://github.com/zoocha/awscli-console
You can also use nix, if you're into that:
nix shell github:zoocha/awscli-console
It's as simple as:
aws-console --profile=foo
Should open the login URL in your browser. As long as your credentials work
(e.g. aws --profile=foo sts get-caller-identity), this should too.
There's also a qutebrowser userscript. On your browser, run:
:spawn -u aws-console-qutebrowser <profile>
You can also set an alias:
:set aliases '{"aws": "spawn -u aws-console-qutebrowser"}'
:aws <profile>
Open up your ~/.aws/config, and add:
[plugins]
console = awscli_console.plugin
cli_legacy_plugin_path = path/to/python/site-packages
The cli_legacy_plugin_path will depend on where you installed this.
- With pipx:
~/.local/share/pipx/venvs/awscli-console/lib/python3.11/site-packages - With pip --user:
~/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages - With nix:
$outPath/share/aws_plugin_path
All done! You can use it like so:
aws console --profile=foo
To iterate faster, install the deps (in a venv, hopefully), and run it with python -m, like so:
python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python -m awscli_console
