DESCRIPTION

This module lets you keep Amazon Web Services credentials in a configuration file for use with different tools that need them.

USAGE

new()

my $config = Net::Amazon::Config->new( %params );

Valid %params entries include:

  • config_dir -- directory containing the config file (and the default location for other files named in the config file). Defaults to $HOME/.amazon

  • config_file -- defaults to profiles.conf

Returns an object or undef if no config file can be found.

config_path()

my $path = $config->config_path;

Returns the absolute path to the configuration file.

get_profile()

my $profile = $config->get_profile( $name );

If $name is omitted or undefined, returns the profile named in the top-level key default in the config file. If the profile does not exist, get profile returns undef or an empty list.

ENVIRONMENT

  • NET_AMAZON_CONFIG -- absolute path to config file or file name relative to the configuration directory

  • NET_AMAZON_CONFIG_DIR -- configuration directory
