Receive and set temporary AWS Tokens for S3 access

Source: R/edl_s3_token.R
edl_s3_token.Rd

Note that these S3 credentials will only work:

Usage

edl_s3_token(
  daac = "https://data.lpdaac.earthdatacloud.nasa.gov",
  username = default("user"),
  password = default("password"),
  prompt_for_netrc = interactive()
)

Arguments

daac

the base URL for the DAAC

username

EarthDataLogin user

password

EarthDataLogin Password

prompt_for_netrc

Often netrc is preferable, so this function will by default prompt the user to switch. Set to FALSE to silence this.

Value

list of access key, secret key, session token and expiration, invisibly. Also sets the corresponding AWS environmental variables.

Details

  • On AWS instance in the us-west-2 region

  • Only for one hour before they expire

  • Only on the DAAC requested

Please consider using edl_netrc() to avoid these limitations

Examples

if (FALSE) { # interactive()
edl_s3_token()
}
