The aws codeartifact command is a component of the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) used to interact with Amazon CodeArtifact, a fully managed artifact repository service. It allows secure storage, publishing, and consumption of software packages in formats like npm, Maven, Gradle, pip, NuGet, and generic repositories.

Key capabilities include creating and managing domains (top-level groupings) and repositories (package stores), associating external connections to public repos like Maven Central or npmjs, uploading/downloading package versions, listing and disposing packages, generating authorization tokens for access, and setting repository policies with IAM integration. It supports CI/CD workflows, VPC endpoints for private connectivity, and encryption at rest/transit.

Usage requires AWS CLI v2 installed and configured with credentials (access keys, IAM roles, or SSO). Run aws codeartifact help for subcommands. Ideal for teams standardizing artifact management across languages and reducing external dependencies.

Requires AWS CLI v2 and valid credentials. CodeArtifact availability limited to specific regions. High-frequency API calls may hit throttling limits; use exponential backoff.

login: Configure package managers (npm, pip, Maven).
get-authorization-token: Obtain repo access token.
create-domain / create-repository: Set up resources.
put-repository-permissions-policy: Manage access.

aws codeartifact login --tool npm --domain mydomain --repository myrepo --region us-east-1
Configures ~/.npmrc for authenticated pulls.

Launched October 8, 2020, with AWS CLI v2 support. Evolved with added formats (e.g., Swift Package Manager in 2022) and features like multi-format repos.
