Code Block | ||
---|---|---|

AWSCredentials credentials = null; String endpoint = "http://<cloudstack_management_server_ipip>:7080/awsapi/awsapi>"; Protocol protocol = Protocol.HTTP; int timeout = 600 * 1000; // Extract AWS_ACCESS_KEY and AWS_SECRET_KEY from AwsCreadentials.properties file try { credentials = new PropertiesCredentials(InlineGettingStartedCodeSampleApp.class.getResourceAsStream("AwsCredentials.properties")); } catch (IOException e1) { System.out.println("Credential were not properly entered into AwsCredntials.properties."); System.exit(-1); } // Create a Client configuration object to control how the client connects to CloudStack e.g. retry counts ClientConfiguration client = new ClientConfiguration(); client.setProtocol(protocol); client.setSocketTimeout(timeout); // Create a Amazon EC2Client object to call any EC2 API ec2 = new AmazonEC2Client(credentials, client); ec2.setEndpoint(endpoint); // Use the Amazon client object to make the api call DecsribeImages DescribeImagesRequest imagesRequest = new DescribeImagesRequest(); DescribeImagesResult imagesResult = ec2.describeImages(imagesRequest); System.out.println("DescribeImages: " + imagesResult); |
Note: Before running the sample, place it in the samples _folder and fill in AwsCredentials.properties with _accessKey=<cloudStack_api_key> and secretkey=<cloudstack_secret_key>unmigrated-wiki-markup
