CLI tool which enables you to login and retrieve AWS temporary credentials using with ADFS or PingFederate Identity Providers. This is based on python code from How to Implement a General Solution for Federated API/CLI Access Using SAML 2.0. The process goes something like this: - Setup an account alias, either using the default or given a name - Prompt user for credentials - Log in to Identity Provider using form based authentication - Build a SAML assertion containing AWS roles - Optionally cache the SAML assertion (the cache is not encrypted) - Exchange the role and SAML assertion with AWS STS service to get a temporary set of credentials - Save these credentials to an aws profile named "saml"
