     my $profile = Net::Amazon::Config->new->get_profile;

     # use access key ID and secret access key with S3 
     use Net::Amazon::S3;
     my $s3 = Net::Amazon::S3->new(
       aws_access_key_id     => $profile->access_key_id,
       aws_secret_access_key => $profile->secret_access_key,
     );

   default = johndoe
   [johndoe]
   access_key_id = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
   secret_access_key = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
   certificate_file = my-cert.pem
   private_key_file = my-key.pem
   ec2_keypair_name = my-ec2-keypair

This module lets you keep Amazon Web Services credentials in a configuration file for use with different tools that need them.

   my $config = Net::Amazon::Config->new( %params );

Valid %params entries include:

• config_dir -- directory containing the config file (and the default location for other files named in the config file). Defaults to $HOME/.amazon
• config_file -- defaults to profiles.conf

Returns an object or undef if no config file can be found.

   my $path = $config->config_path;

Returns the absolute path to the configuration file.

   my $profile = $config->get_profile( $name );

If $name is omitted or undefined, returns the profile named in the top-level key default in the config file. If the profile does not exist, get profile returns undef or an empty list.

• NET_AMAZON_CONFIG -- absolute path to config file or file name relative to the configuration directory
• NET_AMAZON_CONFIG_DIR -- configuration directory
