Introduction

This is example code associated with a blog post available here:

https://medium.com/cuc4/publish-files-to-cornell-box-from-your-application-dc7cc84bc80e

Installing Dependencies

The included requirements.txt includes all necessary dependencies - to install:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Using the examples:

The two example scripts (who_is_service_user.py and post_example_file.py) both have configuration variables to specify the SSM parameter that should be retrieved for Cornell Box credentials. Edit those and specify your parameter name or otherwise pipe in your application's JSON blob.

post_example_file.py also includes a setting for the folder that the example file should be posted to. You'll want to change this to a folder that your app has been granted access to.
