The AWS CLI

You can get the AWS CLI here.

You can set up the AWS CLI by running aws configure.

Using multiple accounts

If you have more than one AWS account, you can create additional profiles in .aws/credentials. You'll have your default profile in there, but you can create additional ones as well.

Listing the contents of a bucket

We can use aws s3 ls to list the contents of a given bucket.

aws s3 ls s3://superawesome.xyz

Deploying an entire directory to S3

aws s3 cp dist/ s3://mysuperfunwebsite.com/ --recursive
