Getting Started

For the initial setup of Workbench we'll be using the Workbench REPL. When you start workbench it will recognize that it needs to complete the initial configuration and will guide you through that process.

Initial Setup/Config

Notes: Workbench uses your existing AWS account/profile/SSO. So if you don't already have an AWS Profile or SSO Setup you'll need to do that first AWS Setup

Okay so after you've completed your AWS Setup you can now install Workbench.

> pip install workbench
> workbench <-- This starts the REPL

Welcome to Workbench!
Looks like this is your first time using Workbench...
Let's get you set up...
AWS_PROFILE: my_aws_profile
WORKBENCH_BUCKET: my-company-workbench
[optional] REDIS_HOST(localhost): my-redis.cache.amazon (or leave blank)
[optional] REDIS_PORT(6379):
[optional] REDIS_PASSWORD():
[optional] WORKBENCH_API_KEY(open_source): my_api_key (or leave blank)
That's It: You're now all set. This configuration only needs to be ONCE :)
