awsebcli 3.19.0

If you’d like to use the EB CLI

The easiest and recommended way to install the EB CLI is to use the EB CLI setup scripts available on a separate GitHub repository. Use the scripts to install the EB CLI on Linux, macOS, or Windows. The scripts install the EB CLI and its dependencies, including Python and pip. The scripts also create a virtual environment for the EB CLI. For installation instructions, see the aws/aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup repository.
