The AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) is a unified tool to manage AWS services ( including AWS S3 ).

CeNT's Object Store implements the same protocol ( S3 ) that is why it is possible to use this tool.

Install and update process is described here : https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html

In shared environments, like ``pier23``, ``jumphost-17`` where you do not have a root privileges install / update process is very similar, with exception that destination path where tool is installed need to be changed.

mkdir -p ~/soft/downloads
cd ~/soft/downloads
curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip"
unzip awscliv2.zip 
./aws/install -i ~/.local/aws-cli --bin-dir ~/.local/bin

remove temporary files

cd ~/soft/downloads
rm -rf aws/
rm awscliv2.zip

Add to file `~/.bashrc` line if not present :

export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin"

To update awscli tool do almost the same as described in “how to install awscli at jumphost-17” above. Except instead of

./aws/install -i ~/.local/aws-cli --bin-dir ~/.local/bin

use command

./aws/install --update -i ~/.local/aws-cli --bin-dir ~/.local/bin
