Installation

Setup profile configuration

Before using this tool, you need to setup the AWS configuration and credential files. Follow CLI configuration documentation to create these two files.

Example config file:

$ cat ~/.aws/config
[default]
region = us-east-1

Example credential file:

$ cat ~/.aws/credentials
[default]
aws_secret_access_key = $YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
aws_access_key_id = $YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID

Install awsmp using snap

awsmp is available in the Snapstore, and it can be installed using:

snap install awsmp

This will install the latest version in your machine. We would highly recommend you to install the latest version, but refer to this Snapcraft channel doc for installing a different version or from channel.

CLI usage

The command line interface called awsmp accepts the standard AWS environment variables such as AWS_PROFILE. Note that Marketplace interaction needs to happen in the us-east-1 region (which is set as the default in the CLI).

awsmpcli is the legacy binary name, and is still available outside of snap builds.
