I have been wondering if both aren't dead since aws-shell hasn't been updated in a while either.
saws is much better than aws-shell for me. I am unable to do variable interpolation in aws-shell (like: DOMAIN=foo aws command with --option $DOMAIN), and it also can't use loops. It is super convenient to be able to do: for i in {1..10}; do aws command with --option thing-$i; done. And all of the awesome consequences of patterns like that.
So for me, aws-shell is a non-starter. Long live saws.
saws commit history is actually more active than aws-shell.
@donnemartin care to weigh in, as it’s your repo?
I was wondering about this as well. I see this repo is way more active than aws-shell. @donnemartin would saws be deprecated any time soon?
Considering @donnemartin has made commits as recently as a week ago, I'm going to close this. We'll see what the future brings!
Per #68, and specifically this comment by @donnemartin, it would seem this project is, or means to, deprecate in favor of
aws-shell
I still see folks open issues & PRs for this, and perhaps the time has come to place a deprecation notice at the top of the README to discourage that.
