I recently noticed that I am running an old version of AWS CLI that is lacking some functionality I need:
$aws --version
aws-cli/1.2.9 Python/3.4.3 Linux/3.13.0-85-generic
How can I upgrade to the latest version of the AWS CLI (1.10.24)?
Edit:
Running the following command fails to update AWS CLI:
$ pip install --upgrade awscli
Requirement already up-to-date: awscli in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
Cleaning up...
Checking the version:
$ aws --version
aws-cli/1.2.9 Python/3.4.3 Linux/3.13.0-85-generic
To upgrade AWS CLI just use $ pip install --upgrade awscli
From http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/installing.html#install-with-pip
To upgrade an existing AWS CLI installation, use the --upgrade option:
pip install --upgrade awscli
On Linux and MacOS X, here are the three commands that correspond to each step:
$ curl "https://s3.amazonaws.com/aws-cli/awscli-bundle.zip" -o "awscli-bundle.zip"
$ unzip awscli-bundle.zip
$ sudo ./awscli-bundle/install -i /usr/local/aws -b /usr/local/bin/aws
This does not work:
pip install --upgrade awscli
This worked fine on Ubuntu 14.04( no need to reboot also .. You would have to first install pip3 ):
pip3 install --upgrade awscli
Try
sudo pip install --upgrade awscli, and open a new shell.
This worked well for me (no need to reboot).
For Ubuntu 16.04 I used parts of the other answers and comments and just reloaded bash instead of rebooting.
I installed the aws-cli using apt so I removed that first:
sudo apt-get remove awscli
Then I could pip install (I chose to use sudo to install globally with pip2):
sudo pip install -U awscli
Since I was doing this on a server I didn't want to reboot it, but reloading bash did the trick:
source ~/.bashrc
At this point I could use the new version of aws cli
aws --version
Simple use
sudo pip install awscli --force-reinstall --upgrade
This will upgrade all the required modules.
We can follow the below commands to install AWS CLI on UBUNTU:
sudo apt install curl
curl “https://s3.amazonaws.com/aws-cli/awscli-bundle.zip” -o “awscli-bundle.zip”
unzip awscli-bundle.zip
sudo ./awscli-bundle/install -i /usr/local/ aws -b /usr/local/bin/aws
rm -rf awscli-bundle.zip awscli-bundle
To test: aws — version
