EB CLI

Introduction

The AWS Elastic Beanstalk Command Line Interface (EB CLI) is a tool that helps you deploy and manage your Elastic Beanstalk applications and environments. It also provides integration with Git.

For detailed information about the EB CLI, see Using the Elastic Beanstalk Command Line Interface (EB CLI) in the AWS Elastic Beanstalk Developer Guide.

The EB CLI is now an open source project, hosted in this repository. You're welcome to participate by reporting issues, making suggestions, and submitting pull requests. We value your contributions!

Installation

If you'd like to use the EB CLI

The easiest and recommended way to install the EB CLI is to use the EB CLI setup scripts available on a separate GitHub repository. Use the scripts to install the EB CLI on Linux, macOS, or Windows. The scripts install the EB CLI and its dependencies, including Python and pip. The scripts also create a virtual environment for the EB CLI. For installation instructions, see the aws/aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup repository.
