awsenv AWS environment config loader

7 Aug 2015

Today I released soniah/awsenv - a small binary for helping load aws environment variables.

awsenv is a small binary that loads AWS environment variables for an AWS profile from ~/.aws/credentials - useful if you’re regularly switching credentials and using tools like Vagrant. In addition to aws_access_key_id and aws_secret_access_key, it will also optionally load settings for aws_keyname and aws_keypath.

The accepted flags can be displayed using -h:

% awsenv -h
Usage:
  awsenv [OPTIONS] Profile

Application Options:
  -v, --verbose   Verbose output
  -f, --filename= Credentials file (~/.aws/credentials)

Help Options:
  -h, --help      Show this help message

Arguments:
  Profile
