Package description

What is @aws-sdk/credential-provider-process?

The @aws-sdk/credential-provider-process package is part of the AWS SDK for JavaScript (v3) and is used to load AWS credentials from a process specified in the shared AWS config and credentials files. This is useful for scenarios where you want to source credentials from an external process, which can be a custom credential provider or a token service.

What are @aws-sdk/credential-provider-process's main functionalities?

Loading credentials from a process

This feature allows you to load AWS credentials by executing a process defined in your AWS config file. The credentials returned by the process are then used to authenticate AWS SDK clients.

const { fromProcess } = require('@aws-sdk/credential-provider-process');

const credentials = fromProcess();
// Use credentials with an AWS SDK client
const client = new SomeAwsClient({ credentials });
