The AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) is a unified tool to manage your AWS services.
This is a strictly confined version, for enhanced security.
With just one tool to download and configure, you can control multiple AWS services from the command line and automate them through scripts.
The AWS CLI v2 offers several new features including improved installers, new configuration options such as AWS Single Sign-On (SSO), and various interactive features.
For best user experience, create an alias for this snap to the standard upstream binary name.
$ sudo snap alias amz-aws-cli aws
If you are migrating from other packaging of AWS CLI, you may want to migrate your existing config.
$ amz-aws-cli.setup
If you find bash completion is not working, you can probably get it working by installing the core snap. This seems to be a bug in the completion implementation.
$ sudo snap install core
Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
If you’re running Kubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or later, including Kubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) and Kubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.
Versions of Kubuntu between 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) and 15.10 (Wily Werewolf) don’t include snap by default, but snap can be installed from the command line as follows:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
To install amz-aws-cli, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install amz-aws-cli
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
