As per document region is also a parameter of boto.emr.EmrConnection class however, I get the follwoing error while making the connection: conn = boto.emr.EmrConnection(profile_name='profile_name', region='us-west-2')
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\boto-2.38.0-py2.7.egg\boto\emr\connection.py", line 68, in init self.region.endpoint, debug, AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'endpoint'
Any idea?
The method is expecting RegionInfo type for region, not string.
So pass boto.ec2.get_region('us-west-2')
instead of 'us-west-2'
import boto.ec2
boto.emr.EmrConnection(profile_name='profile_name', region=boto.ec2.get_region('us-west-2'))
