Introduction

---

Boto is a Python package that provides interfaces to Amazon Web Services. Currently, all features work with Python 2.6 and 2.7. Work is under way to support Python 3.3+ in the same codebase. Modules are being ported one at a time with the help of the open source community, so please check below for compatibility with Python 3.3+.

To port a module to Python 3.3+, please view our Contributing Guidelines_ and the Porting Guide_. If you would like, you can open an issue to let others know about your work in progress. Tests must pass on Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, and 3.4 for pull requests to be accepted.

Boto 3

---

The next major version of Boto is currently in developer preview and can be found in the Boto 3 <https://github.com/boto/boto3#readme>__ repository and installed via pip. It supports the latest service APIs and provides a high-level object-oriented interface to many services.

Please try Boto 3 and leave feedback <https://github.com/boto/boto3/issues>__ with any issues, suggestions, and feature requests you might have.
