awsume VS helm-diff

I have used awsume a long time. Then I got a new Macbook and lost 1/2 hour installing different python versions. So I programmed switchaws in go to get a single executable. And, yes: I declare guilty of the "not invented here" syndrom :) .

Bonus comment: After setting up your aws credentials, have a look at awsume, which makes rapid switches between accounts and roles a lot easier.. :)

Has anyone on AWS gotten k9s to work with Awsume [0] authentication?

Learn how to WORK with AWS well, for instance set up Awsume (https://awsu.me/, install the Switch Roles extension (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/aws-extend-switch-roles/jpmkfafbacpgapdghgdpembnojdlgkdl). Try to make working with it as painless as possible. I went through a long phase of bitching and hating AWS but I've recently just given in.

Haven’t tried Leapp, not sure how I’d feel about needing to swap to a UI every time. I’m a huge fan of Awsume

💡 When working with different accounts and/or roles and enabled MFA, it's recommendable to get some tooling support. I love working with AWSume in this case. It's easy to set up and really intuitive to work with.

Together with awsume and cdkstat I can have a terminal dashboard if a want to monitor the deployment on multiple accounts:

#!/usr/bin/env bash set -euo pipefail cd "$(dirname "$0")/.." source scripts/common.sh green "Installing Kubectl" install_kubectl green "Installing helm version => ${HELM_VERSION}" install_helm green "Setting up Kong Helm Repo" helm repo add kong https://charts.konghq.com helm repo update green "Installing Helm Diff Plugin" helm plugin install https://github.com/databus23/helm-diff || true green "Setting up AWS Auth" setup_aws_auth green "Set the current namespace" kubectl config set-context --current --namespace=${KONG_NAME}-kong green "Validating VPA Config => ${KONG_NAME}-kong-vpa" kubectl diff -f ${KONG_NAME}/vpa.yaml || true if [[ "${KONG_NAME}" == prd ]]; then green "Validating Ingress => ${KONG_NAME}-kong-ingress" kubectl diff -f ${KONG_NAME}/ingress.yaml || true fi green "Validating Kong => ${KONG_NAME}" helm diff upgrade \ --install \ "${KONG_NAME}" \ kong/kong \ --namespace "${NAMESPACE}" \ -f ${KONG_NAME}/kong.yaml \ --set-file dblessConfig.config=${KONG_NAME}/declarative.yaml \ --version 2.6.3

helm plugin install https://github.com/databus23/helm-diff helm plugin install https://github.com/aslafy-z/helm-git helm plugin install https://github.com/jkroepke/helm-secrets

helm-diff plugin to see differences about what will be deployed.

There's Helm plugin (https://github.com/databus23/helm-diff) that show diff results for you, for example

    helm diff upgrade   --namespace 

So helm secrets is a helm plugin, not quite native. It requires the helm diff plugin as well.
