In order for boto to access an s3 resource it must be able to get the
|
||
|
access key and secret key for an s3 account. The 3 ways that boto can
|
||
|
obtain the keys are in the following order of precedence.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1) Credentials passed into Connection class constructor
|
||
|
2) Credentials specified by environment variables
|
||
|
3) Credentials specified as options in a config file
|
||
|
|
||
|
The easiest way for boto to read proper s3 credentials are from a
|
||
|
global config file in /etc/boto.cfg or on a user basis in
|
||
|
~/.boto.
|
||
|
|
||
|
An example config file looks like the following:
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Credentials]
|
||
|
aws_access_key_id = <your access key>
|
||
|
aws_secret_access_key = <your secret key>
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Boto]
|
||
|
debug = 0
|
||
|
num_retries = 10
|
||
|
|
||
|
proxy = myproxy.com
|
||
|
proxy_port = 8080
|
||
|
proxy_user = foo
|
||
|
proxy_pass = bar
