jclouds s3 support implicit aws credentials via IAM roles

Hi,

I’m evaluating jclouds blobstore for accessing s3 and azure. When using jclouds client on an ec2 instance, I was wondering if the client would automatically pick up AWS credentials from EC2 metadata server. Basically the functionality that the AWS SDK does out of the box.

I found this ancient request in legacy depot:
https://github.com/jclouds/legacy-jclouds/issues/1280

Has anything like this ever been added to jclouds?

Thanks
Timo

Timo, this is definitely a desired feature.  I don't believe it is too
much work to add -- would you like to try implementing it yourself?
Please file a JIRA issue and we can help you with any questions.
