The AWS CLI has a lot of features, so it can be hard to remember all of the available commands. To help you learn the commands, the AWS CLI provides a help command that prints a list of all available commands and their parameters.
• The AWS CLI can be used to delete resources, including critical resources like Amazon S3 buckets. Be sure you know what you are doing before running any commands.
• The AWS CLI can also be used to change the configuration of your resources. Be sure you understand the impact of any changes you make before running any commands.
• The AWS CLI is a complex tool with many options. Be sure to read the documentation carefully before using it, and test any commands you are unsure of in a development or test environment first.
To help you get started with the AWS CLI, we’ve created a few example commands that you can use to manage your Amazon Web Services account.
To get started with the AWS CLI, you first need to set up your AWS account. To do this, use the AWS account list command.
This command prints a list of all of the resources that are associated with your account. Next, use the AWS account create command to create a new account. The following example creates a new Amazon Web Services account with the name “demo”:.
AWS account create –name demo
You can use the AWS account list-resources command to print a list of all of the resources that are associated with your account. The following example prints a list of all the resources that are associated with the demo account:
The AWS account delete command can be used to delete an account or all of the resources associated with an account. The following example deletes the demo account:
AWS account delete –name demo
The AWS account list-instances command can be used to print a list of all of the Amazon Web Services instances that are associated with an account. The following example prints a list of all of the Amazon Web Services instances that are associated with the demo account:
AWS account list-instances
The AWS account list-logs command can be used to print a list of all of the logs that are associated with an account. The following example prints a list of all of the logs that are associated with the demo account:
AWS account list-logs
The AWS account list-streams command can be used to print a list of all of the streams that are associated with an account. The following example prints a list of all of the streams that are associated with the demo account:
AWS account list-streams
The AWS account list-queues command can be used to print a list of all of the queues that are associated with an account. The following example prints a list of all of the queues that are associated with the demo account:
AWS account list-queues
The AWS account create-function command can be used to create a new Amazon Web Services function. The following example creates a new Amazon Web Services function called “myFunction”:
AWS account create-function –name myFunction –description “My Function”
The AWS account update-function command can be used to update an existing Amazon Web Services function. The following example updates the myFunction function that was created in the previous example:
AWS account update-function.
