>_STRYKE-AWS

The cloud, one stryke pipe away. AWS client for stryke — S3, DynamoDB, SQS, Lambda, STS. Opt-in package, kept out of the stryke core binary so the daily-driver install stays slim. Five SDKs together produce a ~12 MB helper binary — way too much to bake into stryke core.

Install

# build the helper binary, install as a stryke package
cd ~/projects/stryke-aws
cargo build --release
s pkg install -g .

# one-liner
make install

# verify
aws --help

After install, aws --help works from anywhere on PATH (assuming ~/.stryke/bin/ is on PATH). The stryke library is auto-discoverable to any project that depends on the package via [deps] aws = { path = "..." } or, when published, by name.

CLI: aws

list S3 bucketsaws s3 ls
upload a fileaws s3 cp ./report.csv s3://my-bucket/reports/
query DynamoDBaws dynamodb scan --table-name Users
send SQS messageaws sqs send --queue events --body '{"hello":"world"}'
invoke Lambda + captureaws lambda invoke my-fn --payload '{}' | jq .
LocalStack endpoint overrideAWS_ENDPOINT_URL=http://localhost:4566 aws s3 ls

The full flag matrix lives in the README "CLI" section.

Why a package, not a builtin

The official aws-sdk-rust crates pull in tokio, hyper, rustls, and a fat chain of smithy / signing / endpoint-resolution support code. Ships once as an opt-in package.

The stryke side is a thin NDJSON-pipe wrapper; the heavy code lives in the stryke-aws-helper sidecar binary and is loaded on demand. Core stryke is never linked against this package's deps.

Helper protocol

The stryke-aws-helper sidecar speaks newline-delimited JSON over stdin/stdout. The stryke library shells out per call and pipes structured data both ways. This keeps stryke startup small while making the package's surface area available on demand.

# manual invocation (debugging only)
