I've noticed that this extension is ignoring source_profile as defined in ~/.aws/config.

Based on some cursory searches, it seems that this is because GetProfile is trying to read the profiles out of the credentials file (~/.aws/credentials) instead of the config file:

duckdb-aws/src/aws_secret.cpp

Lines 60 to 79 in f855eb3

Aws::Config::Profile selected_profile;
// get file path where aws credentials are stored.
// comes from AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE
auto credentials_file_path = Aws::Auth::ProfileConfigFileAWSCredentialsProvider::GetCredentialsProfileFilename();
// get the profile from within that file
Aws::Map<Aws::String, Aws::Config::Profile> profiles;
Aws::Config::AWSConfigFileProfileConfigLoader loader(credentials_file_path);
if (loader.Load()) {
profiles = loader.GetProfiles();
for (const auto &entry : profiles) {
const Aws::String &profileName = entry.first;
if (profileName == profile_name) {
selected_profile = entry.second;
auto &url = selected_profile.GetValue("endpoint");
return selected_profile;
}
}
} else {
throw InvalidInputException("Failed to load credentials file %s", credentials_file_path);
}
- by using GetCredentialsProfileFilename instead of GetConfigProfileFilename. Is there any known reason for this or should this just be changed to read out of the config file instead?
