Bitbucket Pipe for aws-cli v2 with OIDC

[James Pinkster]

Hi All

Does there exist a somewhat generic Bitbucket Pipe that wraps the AWS CLI v2 command and includes the OIDC authentication options?

We've used some of the other pre-baked AWS Pipes such as "atlassian/aws-s3-deploy" which have the OIDC authentication stuff baked in and works quite nicely.

However when other AWS CLI commands are needed in automation, we've had to create some custom script to handle the OIDC_TOKEN and call sts assume-role-with-web-identity to get authenticated and then go ahead and run the desired aws cli command.

@James Pinkster hi. 

Does there exist a somewhat generic Bitbucket Pipe that wraps the AWS CLI v2 command and includes the OIDC authentication options? -- I think the answer is no.

Pipes are the small wrappers, that's allow you to automate some common works, but not the full support like boto3 package for aws cli.

Full list of aws pipes you could find here: Bitbucket AWS pipes .

Also maybe this article will help you.
Here amazon/aws-cli docker image is used.

image: amazon/aws-cli
pipelines:
  default:
    - step: 
        oidc: true
        script: 
          - export AWS_REGION=us-west-2
          - export AWS_ROLE_ARN=arn:aws:iam::XXXXXXXXXXXX:role/oidc-demo
          - export AWS_WEB_IDENTITY_TOKEN_FILE=$(pwd)/web-identity-token
          - echo $BITBUCKET_STEP_OIDC_TOKEN > $(pwd)/web-identity-token
          - aws s3 cp s3://bucket/XXXXXX ./XXXXXXX

The snippet demonstrating the use of the "amazon/aws-cli" image with the AWS_WEB_IDENTITY_TOKEN_FILE environment variable is what I was looking for. I must have missed this when I originally read the docs.

Thanks, James
