cognito-cli

CLI for Cognito user life cycle management and basic user authentication to retrieve JWTs (access token, id token and refresh token).

cognito-cli is a wrapper around aws-sdk and is intended to make user management easier instead of having to write a script for one time user management during local development.

Requirements

AWS credentials
When interacting with Amazon Cognito, it is a requirement to have aws credentials. There are a few methods available to you for getting these credentials. Read here.
Once you have obtained aws access id and aws access secret, save them to ~/.aws/credentials:
```
[default]
aws_access_key_id=
aws_secret_access_key=
```
Enable USER_PASSWORD_AUTH on the app client
General > App client > show details > Enable username password based authentication (ALLOW_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH)

Install

Install globally in order to call cognito-cli from anywhere:

npm install -g @sungly/cognito-cli

Add the following to ~/.cognito/config:

user_pool_id=
client_id=
client_secret=
region=ca-central-1
requiredAttributeList=["email", "given_name", "family_name"]

The requiredAttributeList is used for user registration. Make sure to include attributes that are required for your user pool.
