Simple script to export current AWS SSO credentials or run a sub-process with them

aws2-wrap

This is a simple script to facilitate exporting the current AWS SSO credentials or runing a command with them. Please note that it is called aws2-wrap to show that it works with AWS CLI v2, even though the CLI tool is no longer called aws2.

Install using pip

https://pypi.org/project/aws2-wrap

pip install aws2-wrap==1.0.2

Run a command using AWS SSO credentials

aws2-wrap --profile <awsprofilename> --exec "<command>"

Note that you must enclose the command to be executed within double-quotes in order to ensure that any parameters are passed to that sub-command and not to aws2-wrap.

For example:

aws2-wrap --profile MySSOProfile --exec "terraform"

Export the credentials

There may be circumstances when it is easier/better to set the appropriate environment variables so that they can be re-used by any aws command.

Since the script cannot directly set the environment variables in the calling shell process, it is necessary to use the following syntax:

eval "$(aws2-wrap --profile <awsprofilename> --export)"

For example:

eval "$(aws2-wrap --profile MySSOProfile --export)"
