aws-cli VS aws-sdk-rust

The AWS CLI is a must-have tool if your team relies on Amazon Web Services. It lets you effortlessly interact with AWS services, orchestrate resource management, and automate tasks from the comfort of your terminal. Once you get used to the tool, you'll notice how convenient and quick it is to fit into your processes – especially compared to going through AWS's web-based user interface.

Just for your consideration, the network effect is very real with package managers, too:

https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=23.05&show=awscli2 is 2.11.27 (even on the "unstable" channel), versus https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/awscli#default that is 2.12.1, which correctly is the most current (https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/tags)

s3fs allows Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD to mount an S3 bucket via FUSE(Filesystem in Userspace). s3fs makes you operate files and directories in S3 bucket like a local file system. s3fs preserves the native object format for files, allowing use of other tools like AWS CLI.

AFAIK it's still a Python package: https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/tree/2.11.6

Check CLI version, it looks like the earliest version that had DEEP_ARCHIVE support was 1.16.133 (https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/commit/55efab102f774ef17bf51ad32e939e4e03a5ff8a)

And this is the init_localstack.sh file content, a unique thing about localstack its that you can move all strings like an aws-cli tool, also the container deletes all the content and config once the container stops, so the script file must create all the resources that you need from Localstack

It can? I created a pull request for this that hasn't been merged yet: https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/pull/6365

The AWS SDK for Rust contains one crate for each AWS service - you can check them out here.

> What kind of plans for support of Rust's evolving async ecosystem?

We were hoping async-function-in-trait would land before GA, however, we have a plan to add support in a backwards compatible way when it's released.

> Any particular reason why the public roadmap does not show the columns similar to "Researching", "We're Working On It" like the other similar public AWS Roadmaps?

Our roadmap has unfortunately been in a state of disrepair for some time. We're hoping to get it cleaned up and accurate post GA.

> Would be nice to have fully working examples on Github, for most common scenarios across most AWS services. This is something that historically AWS SDKs have been inconsistent on. Just a request not really a question :-)

There are lots of examples here [1], some simple, some quite complex. If there's something you have in mind, please file an issue! Having great examples is one of our priorities.

There’s a pretty nice example of this in the aws rust sdk here.

The official AWS Rust SDK still seems to be a work in progress(developer preview) with a warning to not use it in production.

i'm using https://github.com/awslabs/aws-sdk-rust heavily and was wondering if there was a more specific community (subreddit, Discord server, etc) of Rust x AWS developers?

Only relevant search result was this github issue, which didn't really solve the problem.

I went on rusoto just because aws-sdk-rust says at the beginning of the readme:

Official libraries for major cloud vendors will definitely boost Rust's adoption. aws-sdk-rust is still in 'developer preview', but it's getting there.
