# zsh-aws-vault

oh-my-zsh plugin for [aws-vault](https://github.com/99designs/aws-vault)

## Installation

### [oh-my-zsh](https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh)

This plugin is intended to be used with oh-my-zsh

1. `$ cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins` (you may have to create the folder)
2. `$ git clone https://github.com/blimmer/zsh-aws-vault.git`
3. In your .zshrc, add `zsh-aws-vault` to your oh-my-zsh plugins:

```bash
plugins=(
git
ruby
zsh-aws-vault
)
```

### [zgen](https://github.com/tarjoilija/zgen)

1. add `zgen load blimmer/zsh-aws-vault` to your '!saved/save' block
1. `zgen update`

## Features

This plugin is pretty simple - it provides:

- aliases
- prompt segment

### Aliases

| Alias | Expression |
| ------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| av | aws-vault |
| ave | aws-vault exec |
| avl | aws-vault login |
| avll | aws-vault login -s |
| [avli](#avli) | aws-vault login in sandboxed browser profile |
| avs | aws-vault server |
| [avsh](#avsh) | aws-vault exec $1 -- zsh |
| avp | list aws config / role ARNs |

### `avli`

Login in Private Browsing Window

> This alias is currently only supported in OSX and Linux.

This alias will create a sandboxed browser profile after getting the temporary login URL for your AWS profile. This
allows opening multiple profiles simultaneously in different browser profiles. This differs from using incognito mode,
which shares the same profile across all incognito windows.

You can specify a specific browser to handle your login URL by setting `AWS_VAULT_PL_BROWSER` to the bundle name of the
browser. By default, it will pick your default URL handler in MacOS. It supports the following browsers:

| `AWS_VAULT_PL_BROWSER` value | Browser |
| ------------------------------------- | ------------------------- |
| `org.mozilla.firefox` | Firefox |
| `org.mozilla.firefoxdeveloperedition` | Firefox Developer Edition |
| `com.google.chrome` | Chrome |
| `com.microsoft.edgemac` | Edge |
| `com.microsoft.edgemac.dev` | Edge Developer Edition |
| `com.brave.Browser` | Brave |
| `com.vivaldi.browser` | Vivaldi |

You can pass arbitrary parameters when launching the browser by setting the optional `AWS_VAULT_PL_BROWSER_LAUNCH_OPTS`
environment variable. For example, if you wanted to start new `avli` browser windows maximized, you can set
`AWS_VAULT_PL_BROWSER_LAUNCH_OPTS="--start-maximized"`. Refer to your browser documentation for possible options.

### `avsh`

Create a shell for a given profile.

For example, place the relevant `AWS` environment variables for your default profile by running:

```bash
avsh default
```

### Prompt Segment

This prompt segment echos out the current aws-vault profile you're logged into.
I use this for adding a segment into my custom
[agnoster theme](https://github.com/agnoster/agnoster-zsh-theme/blob/master/agnoster.zsh-theme).

For instance, this code:

```bash
prompt_aws_vault() {
local vault_segment
vault_segment="`prompt_aws_vault_segment`"
[[ $vault_segment != '' ]] && prompt_segment cyan black "$vault_segment"
}
```

Produces this segment in my prompt:

The instructions to customize the prompt vary based on the [theme](https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/wiki/Themes) you
use. In some cases, you'll need to create a copy of the theme file and edit it to include the prompt segment. You can
check out my
[custom agnoster theme](https://github.com/blimmer/dotfiles/blob/fa46a6818dcd92c2b7c1a578b32166542c4febca/oh-my-zsh-custom/themes/agnoster.zsh-theme#L232)
to see how I updated the prompt.

#### Prompt Customization

You can customize the prompt segment behavior by overriding these variables:

| Variable Name | Default | Description |
| ------------------------------ | ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `AWS_VAULT_PL_CHAR` | ☁ | The character to display when logged into an aws-vault profile |
| `AWS_VAULT_PL_DEFAULT_PROFILE` | default | Only show the character when logged into this profile, not the profile name |

### Multi Factor Authentication (MFA)

You can override the default MFA prompt by adding the `AWS_VAULT_PL_MFA` environment variable.

| `AWS_VAULT_PL_MFA` value | Description | Example |
| ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| inline | Enter your MFA token as an additional argument to the command. | `avsh default 123456`
`avli default 123456` |
| yubikey | Generate an MFA token from your Yubikey. See the [docs](https://github.com/99designs/aws-vault/blob/master/USAGE.md#using-a-yubikey-as-a-virtual-mfa) for more information. | `avsh default`
`avsh default my-yubikey-profile`
`avli default`
`avli default my-yubikey-profile` |
