aws-cli-plugins

Examples of how to add custom commands to the aws-cli.

Setup

Install the plugin as a python package.

pip install -U git+https://github.com/nitrocode/aws-cli-plugins.git
aws configure set plugins.helloworld awshelloworld

Usage

$ aws helloworld
Hi Bob!
$ aws helloworld --name Tom
Hi Tom!

TODO

• add say-hello subcommand to helloworld used by @RichardBronosky
• add a subcommand to an existing cli
• use the correct package format e.g. used by @shiftgig

References

• Original by RichardBronosky was very helpful as a base.
• Issues aws-cli#1261 and aws-cli#2350 had some insight.
• shiftgig's awscli-console-login registered a new command without the help message shown as expected.
