Class AwsCredentialsSupplier

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    CredentialsSupplier, Supplier<org.jclouds.domain.Credentials>

    public class AwsCredentialsSupplier
    extends BasicCredentialsSupplier

    AWS credentials supplier for Apache JClouds-based seed node providers.

    If those options are not specified then this class tries to resolve AWS credentials via DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain (part of AWS SDK for Java). Below is the quote of its documentation for fast reference:

    AWS credentials provider chain that looks for credentials in this order:

    • Environment Variables - AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY (RECOMMENDED since they are recognized by all the AWS SDKs and CLI except for .NET), or AWS_ACCESS_KEY and AWS_SECRET_KEY (only recognized by Java SDK)
    • Java System Properties - aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey
    • Credential profiles file at the default location (~/.aws/credentials) shared by all AWS SDKs and the AWS CLI
    • Credentials delivered through the Amazon EC2 container service if AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI" environment variable is set and security manager has permission to access the variable,
    • Instance profile credentials delivered through the Amazon EC2 metadata service
