Hi, I would like to use it on Manjaro. It is possible? I didn't find any docs about it.

Hi @abarbosa-godaddy,

Session-manager-plugin now do not have the PKGBUILD file to build on manjaro. But as a work around, you can directly use the binary file under bin/linux_amd64_plugin (build one or copy from other place), copy it to /usr/local/sessionmanagerplugin/session-manager-plugin and create a symlink as /usr/local/bin/session-manager-plugin. verified it works for me. I will take it as a feature request and forward to team. Thanks again for call out it.

Thanks, Yangtao

The AUR package works well for me: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/aws-session-manager-plugin. It's effectively doing what @Yangtao-Hua described above.

I've also had luck grabbing AWS's .deb in a multi-stage docker build and copying the file out:

FROM golang:latest as build1
...
# while we're in Debian, unpack the .deb of session-manager-plugin
# https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/session-manager-working-with-install-plugin.html#install-plugin-linux
# https://github.com/aws/session-manager-plugin/releases
# note: latest version June 2 is 1.2.463.0 (and that can be substituted for latest below)
RUN curl -sSLO "https://s3.amazonaws.com/session-manager-downloads/plugin/latest/ubuntu_64bit/session-manager-plugin.deb" \
    && dpkg -i "session-manager-plugin.deb"
...

FROM alpine:latest as build2
COPY --from=build1 /usr/local/sessionmanagerplugin/bin/session-manager-plugin /usr/bin/session-manager-plugin
