  5. A low-level interface to a growing number of Amazon Web Services. The
  6. botocore package is the foundation for the
  7. `AWS CLI <https://github.com/aws/aws-cli>`__ as well as
  8. `boto3 <https://github.com/boto/boto3>`__.
  9. On 01/15/2021 deprecation for Python 2.7 was announced and support will be dropped
  10. on 07/15/2021. To avoid disruption, customers using Botocore on Python 2.7 may
  11. need to upgrade their version of Python or pin the version of Botocore. For
  12. more information, see this `blog post <https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/announcing-end-of-support-for-python-2-7-in-aws-sdk-for-python-and-aws-cli-v1/>`__.
  13. On 10/29/2020 deprecation for Python 3.4 and Python 3.5 was announced and support
  14. was dropped on 02/01/2021. To avoid disruption, customers using Botocore
  15. on Python 3.4 or 3.5 may need to upgrade their version of Python or pin the
  16. version of Botocore. For more information, see
  17. this `blog post <https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/announcing-the-end-of-support-for-python-3-4-and-3-5-in-the-aws-sdk-for-python-and-aws-cli-v1/>`__.
  18. Getting Started
  19. ---------------
  20. Assuming that you have Python and ``virtualenv`` installed, set up your environment and install the required dependencies like this or you can install the library using ``pip``:
  21. .. code-block:: sh
  22. $ git clone https://github.com/boto/botocore.git
  23. $ cd botocore
  24. $ virtualenv venv
  25. ...
  26. $ . venv/bin/activate
  27. $ pip install -r requirements.txt
  28. $ pip install -e .
  29. .. code-block:: sh
  30. $ pip install botocore
  31. Using Botocore
  32. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  33. After installing botocore
  34. Next, set up credentials (in e.g. ``~/.aws/credentials``):
  35. .. code-block:: ini
  36. [default]
  37. aws_access_key_id = YOUR_KEY
  38. aws_secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET
  39. Then, set up a default region (in e.g. ``~/.aws/config``):
  40. .. code-block:: ini
  41. [default]
  42. region=us-east-1
  43. Other credentials configuration method can be found `here <https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/guide/credentials.html>`__
  44. Then, from a Python interpreter:
  45. .. code-block:: python
  46. >>> import botocore.session
  47. >>> session = botocore.session.get_session()
  48. >>> client = session.create_client('ec2')
  49. >>> print(client.describe_instances())
