! Introduction
|
|
|
|
!! About Amazon Web Services
|
|
|
|
Amazon Web Services is a collection of online APIs to services that allow cloud-based applications to be built. It is a commercial service that charges usage fees, but there is a free tier that is sufficient for most personal use.
|
|
|
|
An ordinary Amazon account can be used to sign into the AWS console at https://aws.amazon.com/console/. Here you can see a menu of the available services and use interactive dashboards to inspect and configure resources.
|
|
|
|
! Getting Started
|
|
|
|
!! Setup Amazon Credentials
|
|
|
|
The main root account has super-user privileges across all the resources owned by the account. The Identity and Access Management (IAM) service allows subsidiary user accounts to be created for specific tasks. Here we create a new user account for running TiddlyWiki code:
|
|
|
|
# Visit the AWS console at https://aws.amazon.com/console/
|
|
# Choose ''IAM'' from the ''Services'' dropdown menu
|
|
# Choose ''Users'' from the left hand menu
|
|
# Click the ''Create New Users'' button
|
|
# Enter ''tiddlywiki'' as the first user name
|
|
# Check the box labelled //Generate an access key for each user//
|
|
# Click the ''Create'' button
|
|
# Click the ''Download Credentials'' button to download a file called "credentials.csv"
|
|
#* The file contains three values:
|
|
#*# ''User Name'': Username for
|
|
#*# ''Password'':
|
|
#*# ''Direct Signin Link'':
|
|
# Create a text file with the following content:
|
|
#> <div><pre><code>[default]
|
|
aws_access_key_id = <your access key>
|
|
aws_secret_access_key = <your secret access key>
|
|
</code></pre></div>
|
|
# Save the file as `~/.aws/credentials` (Mac/Linux) or `?` (Windows)
|
|
|
|
!! Download or Clone TiddlyWiki Repository
|
|
|
|
Even if you have already installed TiddlyWiki, you should create a new installation for working with the AWS plugin.
|
|
|
|
Visit the TiddlyWiki5 repository at https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyWiki5. You can either download or clone a copy:
|
|
|
|
* Download to get up and running quickly
|
|
* Clone to make it easier to upgrade in the future
|
|
|
|
!! Install `aws-sdk`
|
|
|
|
Open a command terminal, switch to the directory where TiddlyWiki is installed and run the following command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
npm install aws-sdk
|
|
```
