When you want to read a file with a different configuration than the default one  feel free to use either mpu aws s3 read s3path  directly or the copy-pasted code   def s3 read source  profile name None               Read a file from an S3 source       Parameters     ----------     source   str         Path starting with s3     e g   s3   bucket-name key foo bar      profile name   str  optional         AWS profile      Returns     -------     content   bytes      botocore exceptions NoCredentialsError         Botocore is not able to find your credentials  Either specify         profile name or add the environment variables AWS ACCESS KEY ID          AWS SECRET ACCESS KEY and AWS SESSION TOKEN          See https   boto3 readthedocs io en latest guide configuration html             session   boto3 Session profile name profile name      s3   session client  s3       bucket name  key   mpu aws  s3 path split source      s3 object   s3 get object Bucket bucket name  Key key      body   s3 object  Body       return body read

boto3 offers a resource model that makes tasks like iterating through objects easier  Unfortunately  StreamingBody doesn t provide readline or readlines    s3   boto3 resource  s3   bucket   s3 Bucket  test-bucket     Iterates through all the objects  doing the pagination for you  Each obj   is an ObjectSummary  so it doesn t contain the body  You ll need to call   get to get the whole body  for obj in bucket objects all        key   obj key     body   obj get    Body   read
