This class is the starting point for working with AWS CloudTrail.

To use AWS CloudTrail you must first [sign up here](aws.amazon.com/cloudtrail/).

For more information about AWS CloudTrail:

# Credentials

You can setup default credentials for all AWS services via AWS.config:

    AWS.config(
      :access_key_id => 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID',
      :secret_access_key => 'YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY')

Or you can set them directly on the AWS::CloudTrail interface:

    ct = AWS::CloudTrail.new(
      :access_key_id => 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID',
      :secret_access_key => 'YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY')

# Using the Client

AWS::CloudTrail does not provide higher level abstractions for CloudTrail at this time. You can still access all of the API methods using {AWS::CloudTrail::Client}. Here is how you access the client and make a simple request:

      ct = AWS::CloudTrail.new

      resp = ct.client.describe_trails
      resp[:trail_list].each do |trail|
         puts trail
      end

See {Client} for documentation on all of the supported operations.

@!attribute [r] client

  @return [Client] the low-level CloudTrail client object
