Read credentials from ~/.aws/credentials when available #12

If you run aws configure it stores your credentials in ~/.aws/credentials. It would be nice for elasticrawl to read the credentials from there instead of asking for them

Hi Ben, thanks for raising this. Yes currently elasticrawl checks for the environment variables AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID or AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY. If these don't exist it prompts for them.

It makes sense to check ~/.aws/credentials too since it's used by the AWS CLI. I'll have a look at this when I can this should be in the next couple of weeks.

Cheers

Ross

Both this issue and the project are stale. Closing.
