Script to install/upgrade AWS CLI in $HOME

upgrade_awscli.sh

#!/bin/bash

#
# This script can be used to install the AWS CLI in $HOME/.local/ rather than global
# Why? Because then we don't have to keep using sudo needlessly.
#
# It creates a choices.xml which the pkg installer uses to select the correct path.
# The binaries are then linked to the $HOME/.local/bin folder - make sure this is in your $PATH
#

cd $HOME
INSTALL_PATH="$HOME/.local"
