aws.ec2metadata 0.2.0

• revise timeout for curl checks against instance metadata (Thanks @jmorten)
• curl timeout now respects the AWS_METADATA_SERVICE_TIMEOUT environment variable (like boto3)

aws.ec2metadata 0.1.6

• Added new functions: is_ecs() to check whether R is running in an Elastic Container Store (ECS) instance, and ecs_metadata() to retrieve credentials from the container. (#2, h/t @jon-mago)

aws.ec2metadata 0.1.5

• Now supports querying ECS task role

aws.ec2metadata 0.1.4

• Previous .onLoad() functionality added in 0.1.3 is now moved to .onAttach() to comply with CRAN policy.

aws.ec2metadata 0.1.3

• Added a function instance_document() that returns a list of the “instance identity document” information. This is useful for identifying the region an instance is running in.
• When the package is loaded on an EC2 instance (as identified by is_ec2() during package load), the package attempts to set the AWS_DEFAULT_REGION environment variable if it has not already been specified. This helps handle request signing.

aws.ec2metadata 0.1.2

• Added a function is_ec2() that returns a logical based on whether metadata is retrievable.

aws.ec2metadata 0.1.1

• Initial release.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
