AWS Credential Switcher

Simple CLI tool that allows you to quickly toggle between AWS CLI profiles. It works by replacing the values of default profile with the profile you select.

💿 Installation

npm i -g aws-credential-switcher

💻 Usage

NOTE: This tool updates your local ~/.aws/credentials and ~/.aws/config files. Though we create a backup, it's recommended you create manual backups first.

aws-switch

or

aws-switch --credentialFile {fileLocation} --configFile {fileLocation}

🗒 Notes

Since this tool also updates the AWS config file, it's recommended you add a config option for each profile, even if they're duplicates.

~/.aws/credentials

[personal]
aws_access_key_id=abcedf
aws_secret_access_key=abcedf

[work]
aws_access_key_id=abcedf
aws_secret_access_key=abcedf

~/.aws/config

[profile personal]
region=us-west-2
output=json

[profile work]
region=us-east-1
output=json
