Added a Formula to install the EC2 API tools.
Unfortunately, dealing with them requires quite a bit of shell configuration. I offered the best documentation of this configuration that I could, but it’s fairly verbose and a bit repulsive… unfortunately, the other option (attempting to preform the setup automatically) turns out to be even messier, and prone to mistakes to boot.

==============================================================================
|
||||
Before you can utilize the EC2 API tools, you must export several environment
|
||||
variables to your $SHELL. The easiest way to do this is to add them to your
|
||||
dotfiles. If you’re running the `bash` shell (the default), you’ll want to add
|
||||
them to `~/.bash_profile`. If this is the case, run `nano ~/.bash_profile` at
|
||||
a terminal to edit said file. zsh users will want to edit `~/.zprofile`
|
||||
instead.
|
||||
|
||||
export JAVA_HOME="/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home/"
|
||||
export EC2_HOME="#{prefix.to_s}/"
|
||||
|
||||
However, you’re still not ready to use the tools. You need to download your
|
||||
X.509 certificate and private key from Amazon Web Services. These files are
|
||||
available at the following URL:
|
||||
|
||||
http://aws-portal.amazon.com/gp/aws/developer/account/index.html?action=access-key
|
||||
|
||||
You should download two `.pem` files, one starting with `pk-`, and one
|
||||
starting with `cert-`. You need to put both into a folder in your home
|
||||
directory, `~/.ec2`, and then add the following to your profile file:
|
||||
|
||||
export EC2_PRIVATE_KEY="$(/bin/ls $HOME/.ec2/pk-*.pem)"
|
||||
export EC2_CERT="$(/bin/ls $HOME/.ec2/cert-*.pem)"
