A CLI tool for generating AWS IAM policy documents, SAM policy templates, and SAM Connectors using JSON definitions from the AWS Policy Generator.
iam-policies-cli Description
A command-line interface tool designed for generating AWS IAM policy documents, SAM policy templates, and SAM Connectors. The tool operates based on JSON definitions used in the AWS Policy Generator, providing a programmatic approach to IAM policy creation. The CLI accepts optional SAM or CloudFormation templates as input, enabling users to reference resource ARNs through intrinsic functions for resources defined within those templates. The tool incorporates a mapping system that correlates CloudFormation resource types to their corresponding intrinsic functions that return ARNs, utilizing the cfn-lint schema for the us-east-1 region. Version 1.0.5 introduced support for AWS::Serverless::Connectors, expanding the tool's capabilities for serverless applications. When provided with a SAM template, the tool can identify connectable resources and assist in generating AWS::Serverless::Connector resources, facilitating the establishment of secure connections between serverless components. The tool streamlines the process of creating IAM policies by automating the generation of policy documents while maintaining compatibility with existing AWS infrastructure-as-code practices.
