Quick Usage

pip install ape-aws

Using CLI tool

List commands:

ape aws -h

See logged in profile (useful for debugging auth in containers)

ape aws whoami

To create a new user (recommended for cloud usage)

ape aws users new USER

To delete this user (WARNING this is permanent)

ape aws users remove USER

Create an access key for this user (WARNING don't lose generated token)

ape aws users tokens new USER > .env.USER

To create a new Ethereum signing key (recommended to generate)

ape aws keys generate KEY

To schedule this signing key for deletion (WARNING takes 30 days)

ape aws keys remove KEY

To grant your user access to the signing key (don't forget to do this!)

ape aws keys grant KEY -u USER

IPython

First, create a KMS key with the CLI tool

ape console

In [1]: kms_signer = accounts.load("KEY")
In [2]: kms_signer.sign_message("12345")
Out[2]: <MessageSignature v=27, r=0x..., s=0x...>

Now to test your new IAM user's access, you can do the following

env $(echo .env.USER | xargs) ape console

and you should be able to do the same as the above!

Use the access token above to run with your containers by supplying them as environment variables

WARNING: Don't forget to cycle your access tokens on a regular basis to prevent access leakage!

Prerequisites to AWS Setup

To begin, create a virtual environment set up and activate the virtual environment before doing anything for the setup of AWS

1. You must have an AWS account
2. Must be an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user with administrator access
3. Must have configured AWS credentials
4. Must have Docker, Python3 and pip installed on your workstation

AWS Setup

For Mac and Linux

Create a ~/.aws folder in your home directory:

mkdir ~/.aws

Note: get your access key and key id from your IAM in you AWS account here. Create a credentials file in the ~/.aws folder:

cat <<EOF > ~/.aws/credentials
[default]
aws_access_key_id = YOUR_ACCESS_KEY
aws_secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET
EOF

Create a config file in the ~/.aws folder:

cat <<EOF > ~/.aws/config
[default]
region = YOUR_REGION
output = json
