list of weak references to the object (if defined)

_get_sts_token()

Assume a role via STS and return the credentials.

First connect to STS via boto.sts.connect_to_region(), then assume a role using boto.sts.STSConnection.assume_role() using self.account_id and self.account_role (and optionally self.external_id, self.mfa_serial_number, self.mfa_token). Return the resulting boto.sts.credentials.Credentials object.

Returns:STS assumed role credentials Return type:boto.sts.credentials.Credentials

connect_via(driver)

Connect to an AWS API and return the connection object. If self.account_id is None, call driver(self.region). Otherwise, call _get_sts_token() to get STS token credentials using boto.sts.STSConnection.assume_role() and call driver() with those credentials to use an assumed role.

Parameters:driver (function) – the connect_to_region() function of the boto submodule to use to create this connection Returns:connected boto service class instance
