saml2aws: command not found

[ashwani29]

I installed saml2aws following the below steps:

CURRENT_VERSION=$(curl -Ls https://api.github.com/repos/Versent/saml2aws/releases/latest | grep 'tag_name' | cut -d'v' -f2 | cut -d'"' -f1)
wget -c https://github.com/Versent/saml2aws/releases/download/v${CURRENT_VERSION}/saml2aws_${CURRENT_VERSION}_linux_amd64.tar.gz -O - | tar -xzv -C ~/.local/bin
chmod u+x ~/.local/bin/saml2aws
hash -r
saml2aws --version

but getting saml2aws command not found errors. Please help in resolving this.

OS: ubuntu-18.04

I have the same issue. Does anyone know is there's required also some manipulation with adding this to PATH or something?

OS: ubuntu-20.04.4

PS: Installed brew for linux to avoid this problem. But I think it's not kind of proper solution.

@ashwani29 @onecoldwhiteday This works for me.

CURRENT_VERSION=$(curl -Ls https://api.github.com/repos/Versent/saml2aws/releases/latest | grep 'tag_name' | cut -d'v' -f2 | cut -d'"' -f1)
wget https://github.com/Versent/saml2aws/releases/download/v${CURRENT_VERSION}/saml2aws_${CURRENT_VERSION}_linux_amd64.tar.gz
tar -xzvf saml2aws_${CURRENT_VERSION}_linux_amd64.tar.gz
mv saml2aws /usr/local/bin/
chmod u+x /usr/local/bin/saml2aws
saml2aws --version

@hcl1687 The first line should be grep 'tag_name' not grep 't ag_name'

In full: CURRENT_VERSION=$(curl -Ls https://api.github.com/repos/Versent/saml2aws/releases/latest | grep 'tag_name' | cut -d'v' -f2 | cut -d'"' -f1)

@hcl1687 minor correction here, replace the t ag_name , CURRENT _VERSION with tag_name and CURRENT_VERSION. In my case, I do ssh through vscode to ubuntu vm, inside vm terminal it is working but through vscode ssh it is giving error. But your solution is working for now.

@Asher24 @ashwani29 Done. Thank you!

mv saml2aws /usr/local/bin/
chmod u+x /usr/local/bin/saml2aws
saml2aws --version

This did it or me however I needed to do sudo mv saml2aws /usr/local/bin/

Just need to update PATH

export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin/"
