Configuration Options

Moto has a variety of ways to configure the mock behaviour.

If you are using the decorators, some options are configurable within the decorator:

@mock_aws(config={
    "batch": {"use_docker": True},
    "lambda": {"use_docker": True},
    "core": {
        "mock_credentials": True,
        "passthrough": {
            "urls": ["s3.amazonaws.com/bucket*"],
            "services": ["dynamodb"]
        }
    }
})

By default, Batch and AWSLambda will spin up a Docker image to execute the provided scripts and functions.

If you configure use_docker: False for either of these services, the scripts and functions will not be executed, and Moto will assume a successful invocation.

Configure mock_credentials: False and passthrough if you want to only mock some services, but allow other requests to connect to AWS.

You can either passthrough all requests to a specific service, or all URL’s that match a specific pattern.
