Configuration options for AWS SDK for pandas
There are options to configure global variables in awswrangler, which will help us to make the awswrangler library more customized for our specific use cases. We will look in depth at how to set up configurations to customize the working of awswrangler.
Setting up global variables
Global configuration variables can be set up through two different mechanisms in awswrangler:
- Environment variables: Create environment variables in the operating system/kernel environment where the
awswranglerpackage will be executed. For example, in a Jupyter notebook, use the%envcommand to set values for environment variables. This is loaded when theawswranglerobject is instantiated. - Wrangler config variables: You can also set up values for environment variables using the
wranglerobject directly. Use theawswrangler.config.<<variable name>>syntax to assign a value for that configuration.
