Show your AWS Profile in your shell prompt

For better visibility into what your shell is set to it's helpful to configure your prompt to show the value of the env variable AWS_PROFILE.

Here's a sample of my bash prompt config

aws_prof() {
  local profile="${AWS_PROFILE:-default}"

  echo -e "\033[1;34maws:(\033[1;33m${profile}\033[1;34m)\033[0m"
}

PROMPT='OTHER_PROMPT_STUFF $(aws_prof)'
