Creating a client
To use the Amazon SDK for Java, the Amazon SDK for .NET, the Amazon SDK for Python (Boto3), the Amazon SDK for Ruby, the Amazon SDK for PHP, or the Amazon SDK for JavaScript in Node.js to write code that uses the Amazon Key Management Service (Amazon KMS) API, start by creating an Amazon KMS client.
The client object that you create is used in the example code in the topics that
follow.
- Java
-
To create an Amazon KMS client in Java, use the client builder.
AWSKMS kmsClient = AWSKMSClientBuilder.standard().build();
For more information about using the Java client builder, see the following
resources.
- C#
-
AmazonKeyManagementServiceClient kmsClient = new AmazonKeyManagementServiceClient();
- Python
-
kms_client = boto3.client('kms')
- Ruby
-
require 'aws-sdk-kms' # in v2: require 'aws-sdk'
kmsClient = Aws::KMS::Client.new
- PHP
-
To create an Amazon KMS client in PHP, use an Amazon KMS client object, and specify version
2014-11-01. For more information see the KMSClient class in the
Amazon SDK for PHP API Reference.
// Create a KMSClient
$KmsClient = new Aws\Kms\KmsClient([
'profile' => 'default',
'version' => '2014-11-01',
'region' => 'us-east-1'
]);
- Node.js
-
const kmsClient = new AWS.KMS();
