> Unlike the {{DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain}} in the AWS SDK, the {{AWSCredentialsProviderChain}} constructed by {{S3AFileSystem}} does not include an {{EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider}} instance. This prevents users from supplying AWS credentials in the environment variables {{AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID}} and {{AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY}}, which is the only alternative in some scenarios.
> In my scenario, I need to access S3 from within a test running in a CI environment that does not support IAM roles but does allow me to supply encrypted environment variables. Thus, the only secure approach I can use is to supply my AWS credentials in environment variables (plaintext configuration files are out of the question).
