We will use the same boto3 Python package, as it provides classes and functions for implementing the SNS service.
Let's start over by creating an SNS topic.
An SNS topic can be created by invoking the create_topic()
function of the sns_client
object. The result is the Python dictionary that represents the SNS topic. Once an SNS topic is created, AWS automatically assigns a unique ARN to the topic. This ARN can be fetched using the TopicARN key of the SNS topic.
The following Python program demonstrates the creation of an SNS topic:
import boto3 # Create an SNS client object sns_client = boto3.client( "sns", # You may have to set the AWS credentials of you haven't already set using AWS CLI # aws_access_key_id="YOUR ACCES KEY", # aws_secret_access_key="YOUR SECRET KEY", # region_name=us-east-1 ) # Create an SNS topic sns_topic = sns_client.create_topic(Name="packt-pub") topic_arn = sns_topic['TopicArn'] # fetch...
