Yet another set of scripts and shell functions for managing AWS profiles and cross account access.

Project description

Yet another set of scripts and shell functions for managing AWS profiles and cross account access.

Install

aws-shelltools is not yet in PyPI, so we install from github directly.

aws-shelltools now has dependancy on package aws-orgs, which is also not yet in PyPI.

Install into python virual environment:

source ~/path-to-venv/bin/activate
pip install https://github.com/ucopacme/aws-orgs/archive/master.zip
pip install https://github.com/ucopacme/aws-shelltools/archive/master.zip

Install from editable local repository:

git clone https://github.com/ucopacme/aws-shelltools
cd aws-shelltools
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

Uninstall:

pip uninstall aws-shelltools

Configure:

aws-shelltools-setup
. ~/.bashrc

The shelltools:

aws-profile

Set or display value of shell environment var AWS_PROFILE.

aws-set-mfa-token

Request temporary session credentials from AWS STS. Export these credentials to environment vars in the current shell.

aws-make-config

Generate aws client config file by listing group assume role policies. You must set your MFA token before you run this command.

aws-list-roles

Print list of available AWS assume role profiles.

aws-assume-role

Run ‘aws sts assume-role’ operation to obtain temporary assumed role credentials for the specified profile. Export these credentials to environment vars in the current shell.

aws-refresh

Reset mfa token. If environment var AWS_ASSUMED_ROLE_PROFILE is already set from a previous session, then rerun ‘aws sts assume-role’ operation for that profile.

aws-display-assumed-role

Print current values of AWS assumed role environment vars

aws-whoami

Print output of ‘aws sts get-caller-identity’

aws-env

Print current values of all AWS environment vars

aws-export-env

Cache AWS environment vars to local file for use by other shells

aws-import-env

Evaluate cached AWS evironment vars into current shell

aws-drop-assumed-role

Reset AWS session environment vars to values prior to assuming role

aws-unset-mfa-token

Unset all AWS session token environemt vars

Usage:

# Run each command with -h option for full usage info.

aws-profile <profile>
aws-set-mfa-token
aws-make-config
aws-list-roles
aws-assume-role <profile>
aws-refresh

aws-display-assumed-role
aws-whoami
aws-env
aws-export-env
aws-import-env

aws-drop-assumed-role
aws-unset-mfa-token

Configure Assume Role Profiles

If you have not yet set up your AWS CLI access, skip to section Awscli/Python Setup before proceeding.

Set your MFA token and assume role to one of your configured assume role profiles:

(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws-set-mfa-token
please enter 6 digit token code for your MFA device: 351918
(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws-assume-role ashley-training-OrgAdmin
(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws-whoami
{
    "UserId": "AROAIMADVT2W7CODNCP7W:agould@ashley-training-OrgAdmin",
    "Account": "111111111111",
    "Arn": "arn:aws:sts::111111111111:assumed-role/OrgAdmin/agould@ashley-training-OrgAdmin"
}

Now you can run aws-make-config to generate your assume role profiles based on your group membership in a central auth account. These are written to ~/.aws/config.d/config.aws_shelltools:

(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws-make-config
(python3.6) ashleygould$ head ~/.aws/config.d/config.aws_shelltools
[profile ashley-training-OrgAdmin]
role_arn = arn:aws:iam::111111111111:role/awsauth/OrgAdmin
role_session_name = agould@ashley-training-OrgAdmin
source_profile = default

[profile Auth-OrgAdmin]
role_arn = arn:aws:iam::222222222222:role/awsauth/OrgAdmin
role_session_name = agould@Auth-OrgAdmin
source_profile = default

See a listing or all your available AWS profiles:

(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws-list-roles
profile Auth-OrgAdmin
profile OrgMaster-OrgAdmin
profile ashley-training-OrgAdmin
profile eas-dev-OrgAdmin
profile eas-prod-OrgAdmin

You can shorten the profile name at the command line to a unique prefix:

(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws-assume-role eas
Your specified profile 'eas' matches multiple configured profiles. Select one from
the list below and try again:
  eas-dev-OrgAdmin eas-prod-OrgAdmin
  ucop-itssandbox-eas-OrgAdmin
(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws-assume-role eas-dev
(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws-whoami
{
    "UserId": "AROAJFPJVRDRDFUZJLZVG:agould@eas-dev-OrgAdmin",
    "Account": "111111111111",
    "Arn": "arn:aws:sts::111111111111:assumed-role/OrgAdmin/agould@eas-dev-OrgAdmin"
}

Awscli/Python Setup

The above install insturctions assume you have a working knowledge of python and awscli. If you are new at this, refer to the excellent AWS documentation: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/installing.html

This covers installation of python and python virtual environments for Linux, MacOS, and Windows. Once your python is happy, running the installation of aws-shelltools will ensure awscli`and `boto3 are also properly installed.

AWS Access Key Setup

Before you can use any of this stuff, you must create your AWS access key and secret access key and confiture your AWS shell profile. see: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-getting-started.html

Log into AWS console and create an AWS Access key as per AWS doc. From your shell run the aws configure command and cut-n-paste your access key/secret key from the console to the command line as prompted. This creates your default profile:

(python3.6) ashleygould$ aws configure
AWS Access Key ID [None]: AKI**********W5AFPSNQ
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: U/QotA**********************543vuYB
Default region name [None]: us-west-2
Default output format [None]:

(python3.6) ashleygould$ cat .aws/config
[default]
region = us-west-2

(python3.6) its-agould-9m:~ ashleygould$ aws-whoami
{
    "UserId": "AIDAJ2SLREGRDKVFOB6CI",
    "Account": "112233445566",
    "Arn": "arn:aws:iam::112233445566:user/awsauth/orgadmin/agould"
}

Working With Codecommit Repositories

To access codecommit repositories from the commandline after assuming a role, you must first configure git to use the AWS codecommit credential-helper:

git config --global credential.helper '!aws codecommit credential-helper $@'
git config --global credential.UseHttpPath true
