Extract OIDC provider thumbprint given an AWS EKS cluster name

oidc-thumbprint.sh

#!/bin/bash

set -e

if [ ! -z "$DEBUG" ] ; then
    set -x

CLUSTER_NAME=$1

# Get cluster OIDC Provider for the cluster using AWS CLI

Hey there, I am glad you find it of some use.

I am not sure either. I also wrote this one, from which it seems that the THUMBPRINT is actually the same for all regions: https://gist.github.com/riccardomc/a3891356b09516ab3f3b79a12e9b13e1

Just need to the same in a lambda now lol

In case you are interested Python version to do the same, https://gist.github.com/alastairhm/a2b1b5e6adde9d9626d84e531adf39ed
