boto3-session 0.0.6

Wrapper library for python boto3.session.Session.

boto3-session

A wrapper library for the boto3.session.Session class in Python.

Requirement

• Python versions 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12
• Poetry (for development purposes)

Installation

To install boto3-session, run the following command:

$ pip install boto3-session

Usage

boto3_session.Session can be used similarly to boto3.Session:

from boto3_session import Session

session = Session()
s3 = session.resource("s3")
bucket = s3.Bucket(...)
...

The some of parameters for boto3_session.Session are akin to those for boto3.Session:

• profile_name: The AWS profile name.
• aws_access_key_id: The AWS access key ID.
• aws_secret_access_key: The AWS secret access key.
• aws_session_token: The AWS session token.
• region_name: The AWS region name.

Additionally, boto3_session.Session supports management of AssumeRole:

• role_arn: The AWS role ARN for AssumeRole. If set, aws_access_key_id, aws_secret_access_key, and aws_session_token are replaced with the AssumeRole credentials.
• session_name: The AWS session name, defaulting to "boto3_session".

boto3_session.Session includes client and resource methods, like boto3.Session. By default, the following configuration is passed to them:

Config(retries={"max_attempts": self.max_attempts, "mode": self.retry_mode})

In boto3, the default values for max_attempts and mode are 5 and legacy, respectively. In boto3_session, they default to 3 and "standard".

These defaults can be overridden by passing the following parameters to boto3_session.Session:

• retry_mode: The retry mode for failed requests, defaulting to "standard".
• max_attempts: The maximum number of retry attempts for failed requests, defaulting to 10.

SSO Login

For configurations with SSO login, if the token is absent or expired, boto3_session.Session automatically executes aws sso login.

Note: The aws command-line tool must be installed.
