Thanks, Mike. Super helpful. Got the domain registered and hosted via Route 53. Set up buckets in S3. Set up IAM account. All good.
Now stuck on "Enabling S3 Access on rPi". Two questions, both silly, I think: 1. Python -V returns: Python 2.7.16 Do I need to upgrade? 2. vi ~/.aws/credentials [weewx] returns endless lines of ~ on the terminal. It's not obvious how/where to enter access and secret keys. I'm think I'm doing something really dumb. What is it? Thanks.
