Authentication only works with temporary credentials. #103

The authentication works for temporary credentials as specified by AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY and optionally the AWS_SESSION_TOKEN, optionally stored in .aws/credentials, as described in readme.md, but I can't get it to work with the auto-refreshing credentials. The auto-refresh credentials are in a .json file in a further sub-directory, not in the .aws/credentials file. Nothing in readme.md seems to mention this alternative, is it supported?

Oh wait, I just saw the workaround in the other issue thread. Still, from what I can see the new_default_method() in auth.py ought to fall back on the ./aws/config file in the 2nd level of the chain if the environment variables aren't defined, and it doesn't seem to. I tried using the new_profile() method to access the .aws/config file directly, but got a File not Found error (but the config file is there).
