Copy this helper function called aws-profile into your favourite shell (.bashrc, .zshrc, ~/.config/fish/function) to easily switch between AWS profiles. In case of using fish shell, use this other function.

Installation

Using pipx (Recommended)

Install pipx with your system package manager (apt, dnf, pacman...).

pipx install cloudsnake

Using pip

pip3 install cloudsnake

[!WARNING] Probably your system will not allow this installation method due to a broken system package.

Example error

Error:

error: externally-managed-environment
× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try 'pacman -S
python-xyz', where xyz is the package you are trying to
install.
If you wish to install a non-Arch-packaged Python package,
create a virtual environment using 'python -m venv path/to/venv'.
Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip.

If you wish to install a non-Arch packaged Python application,
it may be easiest to use 'pipx install xyz', which will manage a
virtual environment for you. Make sure you have python-pipx
installed via pacman.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.
