AWS Support

AWS Setup

Configuration for AWS uses the standard Configuration and Credential Files. To change your profile, ensure that the AWS_PROFILE environment variable is set to the desired profile.

AWS SSO

For SSO, the AWS CLI is required to configure and login. To setup AWS SSO:

• follow the steps on Configure the AWS CLI with IAM identity Center authentication.
• login with aws sso login

This plugin uses the aws_config crate. It is very unforgiving of miss configurations.

It will work if the profile includes only the sso_session, sso_account_id, and sso_role_name. Don't include sso_start_url in the profile section for instance.

[profile my-profile]
sso_session = my-sso
sso_account_id = <numeric account id>
sso_role_name = my-iam-role
region = us-east-1
output = json

[sso-session my-sso]
sso_start_url = https://d-92677e5ab0.awsapps.com/start
sso_region = us-west-2
sso_registration_scopes = sso:account:access

Non-Cloud Storage

There are two types of supported non-cloud storage types, in-memory and file system. It can be useful to use these for testing purposes.

In-Memory Usage

Save a file from memory:

[[a b]; [1 2]] | cloud save memory:/foo.csv

Load a file from memory:

cloud open memory:/foo.csv

List files in memory:

cloud ls memory:/foo.csv

Filesystem Usage

Save a file from the local filesystem:

[[a b]; [1 2]] | cloud save file:///tmp/test/foo.csv

Load a file from the local filesystem:

cloud open file:///tmp/test/foo.csv

List files in the local filesystem:

cloud ls file:///tmp/test/foo.csv
