How to use aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v2 to login to code artifact using act?

[elasticdotventures]

I really like act and I'm trying to figure out a way to get it working within my org.
The challenge is we use aws codeartifact to host private python libraries which are necessary for nearly every application.

I've started a thread / request for documentation here:
aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials

I realize act is a cloud & language agnostic general purpose tool, so perhaps this requirement is a bit niche.

as far as I can tell the recommend aws-actions IdP route, using the GitHub OIDC wouldn't be compatible with act. This is probably fine since we're in the process of moving to k8s, and so I think the web-identity-token-file is perhaps the most appropriate for a shared workflow that works in both a locally hosted runner (as part of an argo ci/cd process) and also with act.

Haven't gotten it working yet, but would appreciate any feedback or workarounds others have come up with.
