console¶
cfnrain console makes a sign-in URL for the AWS console from your current credentials and opens it in a browser.
# Open the CloudFormation console
cfnrain console
# Open the CloudFormation console with a stack selected
cfnrain console app-prod
# Open another service
cfnrain console -s lambda
# Print the URL and do not open a browser
cfnrain console -u
| Flag | What it does |
|---|---|
-s, --service |
The service home page to open. The default is cloudformation. cfnrain selects the stack only on the cloudformation page. |
-u, --url |
Print the URL only |
-n, --name |
The user name to show in the console. The default comes from the role name. |
-l, --logout |
Sign out of the AWS console |
console works only with IAM role credentials, not with IAM user credentials.
The sign-in URL names https://awesome-foundation.github.io/cfnrain/cfnrain_console.html as the issuer. When your console session expires, AWS links back to that page.
