Is it possible to get the ARN of an S3 bucket via the AWS command line?

I have looked through the documentation for aws s3api ... and aws s3 ... and have not found a way to do this.

It's always arn:PARTITION:s3:::NAME-OF-YOUR-BUCKET. If you know the name of the bucket and in which partition it's located, you know the ARN. No need to 'get' it from anywhere.

The PARTITION will be aws, aws-us-gov, or aws-cndepending on whether you're in general AWS, GovCloud, or China resepectively.
