Read the Documentation here AWS CLI I recommend installing the AWS CLI onto the system Python installation, instead of using a virtualenv and pyenv. This is because you or services/bash scripts that you will write might run from any location. So you won't have to worry about activating a virtualenv or messing with the PATH Environment variable.
After successful installation we configure it and test it.
Configuration run: aws configure
this creates two files ~/.aws/config and ~/.aws/credentials/
Install aws cli with
pip3 aws-cli --user --upgrade
Getting user information
aws iam get-user
or for a specific user
aws iam get-user --user-name user1
jq is a command line tool to parse json in bash. See jq
On Ubuntu/Debian apt install jq does the trick.
For example select all _FromPort_s with aws cli and jq like this:
aws ec2 describe-security-groups | jq '.SecurityGroups[].IpPermissions[].FromPort'
