aws-formula

This formula allows easy management of AWS using pillar data. Most boto_* functions offer support for loading pillar directly, however this requires a massive set of references to particular pillars. Because this is impractical we've created this aws-formula to make life a little easier.

On top of that, it adds some functionality that is lacking in the boto_* modules of Salt (e.g. dealing with salt:// files in Lambda)

Compatibility

There are no specific OS requirements/limitations other than being able to run Salt-minion

Contributing

Pull requests are more than welcome.

Usage

Include "aws" in your project for the base setup (dependencies). For provioning specific systems you can select which states you require.
