Question
S3-SDK examples, NameError: name 'botocore' is not defined

Asked by briangmoore
Working through https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/spaces/reference/s3-sdk-examples , python 3 tab. Where it says configure a client, there is a line:
config=botocore.config.Config(s3={‘addressing_style’: ‘virtual’}),
I keep getting the error NameError: name ‘botocore’ is not defined .
This is on ubuntu 22.10, using python 3.10.7, venv with pip install boto3
When I comment that line out, it seems to work. For example I can list files. This is first time working with boto/boto3, so just trying this and trying that. Is there something lost to not have ‘addressing_style’ set to ‘virtual’?

Hi there,
It should be OK to omit this line. For more information about the addressing style, I would recommend the following documentation that goes over it in details:
https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/1.9.42/guide/s3.html
If you believe that you would need it, you could add
import botocoreright after theimport boto3line to include the package.Let me know how it goes!
Best,
Bobby
