Make sure you've set up your AWS credentials in ~/.aws/credentials:

``
[default]
aws_access_key_id=AKIABFOJHE19JDLS4G3A
aws_secret_access_key=J29OoH8JlsCdowF+jLSKU2/Hos8VJsl2jslkh22L",
`

Region defaults to us-east-1. You can override this via the
~/.aws/config file:

`
[default]
region = us-east-1
`

Like other AWS SDKs, you can use the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, and AWS_DEFAULT_REGION environment
variables instead of or to override the config file.
