AWS CLI

Configure

# config the 'default' profile: credentials, default region and output format
aws configure

# config the 'work' profile
aws configure --profile work

# set default region for current profile
aws configure set default.region ap-southeast-2

Config files are in ~/.aws/, there are two files: credentials, config

Example:

  • credentials:

    [default]
aws_secret_access_key = ****
aws_access_key_id = ****

[work]
aws_secret_access_key = ****
aws_access_key_id = ****

  • config:

    [default]
region = ap-southeast-2

[profile work]
region = ap-southeast-1

There are two profiles in this example, you can switch between profiles by setting an environment variable:

export AWS_PROFILE=work

or for one-off usage, add a --profile parameter to any command:

aws s3 ls --profile=work

S3

# create a bucket
aws s3 mb s3://testing-12345

# upload a file
aws s3 cp x.tar s3://testing-12345/x.tar

KMS

# create a key and get the id
keyId=$(aws kms create-key --query KeyMetadata.Arn --output text)

# assign a alias to the key
aws kms create-alias \
    --alias-name alias/myKey \
    --target-key-id $keyId
