});

awsCli.command('iam list-users').then(function (data) {
  console.log('data = ', data); 
});

//data = {
//  command: 'aws iam list-users ',
//  raw: '["{\\n    \\"Users\\": [\\n        {\\n            \\"UserName\\": \\"developer\\", \\n            \\"PasswordLastUsed\\": \\"2015-10-03T17:58:49Z\\", \\n            \\"CreateDate\\": \\"2015-06-03T07:37:25Z\\", \\n            \\"UserId\\": \\"AIDAJBXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\\", \\n            \\"Path\\": \\"/\\", \\n            \\"Arn\\": \\"arn:aws:iam::03XXXXXXXXX:user/developer\\"\\n        }\\n    ]\\n}\\n",""]',
