Core

The AWS account the aws-* packs talk to, set up the way the AWS SDK is set up for the real services.

Register the account once; every aws-* step of the scenario uses it:

Given the parcels aws account with the following properties:
  | region   | eu-west-1             |
  | endpoint | http://localhost:4566 |

Without credentials in the table, the SDK finds them as it always does: the AWS_* environment variables, the shared files, then the container or instance role. AWS_ENDPOINT_URL is honored too, so the same features run against AWS and against an emulator. Values expand ${env:..} and ${sys:..}.

Add it to a project with axx pack add aws-core.

Steps

aws-core.account

Given the {word} aws account with the following properties:
  | property | value |

The table may start with the row naming its columns, as above, or go straight to its rows.

Register the AWS account the aws-* steps talk to.

• The first account registered is the default.
• Without access key id and secret access key, the SDK finds credentials as it always does: the AWS_* environment variables, the shared files, then the container or instance role.
• Values expand ${env:..} and ${sys:..}, so the same features run against AWS and against an emulator.

Parameter	Takes	For example
{word}	one word, with no spaces	parcels, PX-4101

Property	Takes	Default
region	the AWS region, like eu-west-1	required
endpoint	where every service of the account is, instead of AWS: a local emulator, like http://localhost:4566, where S3 is addressed by path
profile	a profile of the shared AWS config and credentials files
access key id	the access key ID of static credentials, with secret access key
secret access key	the secret access key of static credentials, with access key id
session token	the session token of temporary static credentials
asyncapi	an AsyncAPI document, a file of the project or a URL, that the SQS queues and SNS topics follow: every message a scenario sends there, and every message a check finds, is checked against it (with the asyncapi pack)

Example:

Given the parcels aws account with the following properties:
  | region            | eu-west-1                           |
  | endpoint          | http://localhost:4566               |
  | access key id     | ${env:AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID:-local}     |
  | secret access key | ${env:AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY:-local} |
Given the parcels aws account with the following properties:
  | region  | eu-central-1  |
  | profile | parcels-tests |
