Ensure you've met the requirements.
$ pip install aws-coco
Usage
$ coco -c green -i fingerprint
You should now have a new browser tab with your aws session!
Continue reading for a more in-depth walkthrough of the setup.
If coco is too generic, this package also exposes aws_coco.
If using containers:
If you don't wish to install the extension through the marketplace, the source for the extension can be found here.
If not:
If you do not wish to use containers, make sure to specify the --no-container flag.
$ pip install aws-coco
This section explains how to use coco and covers some of the options available to you.
$ coco --color green --icon fingerprint --name test
This will open the url in a green firefox container tab named test with a fingerprint icon.
This can be annoying to type, so it's recommended to build aliases for your accounts.
Example alias:
alias coco-test=coco --color green --icon fingerprint --name test
Now you can just run:
$ coco-test
This project uses boto3. You can learn more about how boto3 resolves credentials here.
If you specify the --profile flag, coco will pass that value into the boto3 session and it will attempt to use the corresponding section in the ~/.aws/credentials file for the session.
This section contains a description of the various options available to you. You can also pass the -h flag to print the help.
