fs = s3fs.S3FileSystem(profile_name='profile') TypeError: init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'profile_name'

See original GitHub issue

What happened:

Wanted to use s3fs with an AWS profilename.

What you expected to happen:

Connect and work with s3_fs.

Minimal Complete Verifiable Example:

tried:

s3_fs = s3fs.S3FileSystem(profile_name='role')

TypeError: init() got an unexpected keyword argument ‘profile_name’

from s3fs import S3FileSystem
import boto3
session = boto3.session.Session(profile_name="aws-biadmin", region_name='us-east-1')
s3_fs = S3FileSystem(anon=False)

NoCredentialsError: Unable to locate credentials

from s3fs.core import S3FileSystem

s3_fs = S3FileSystem(anon=False, client_kwargs={'profile_name':"aws-biadmin", 'region_name': 'us-east-1'})

TypeError: create_client() got an unexpected keyword argument ‘profile_name’

from s3fs.core import S3FileSystem

s3_fs = S3FileSystem(anon=False, s3_additional_kwargs={'profile_name':"aws-biadmin", 'region_name': 'us-east-1'})
## This finally accepts it, but does not convey it
s3_fs.ls('s3://bucket/folder')

NoCredentialsError: Unable to locate credentials

from s3fs.core import S3FileSystem
s3_fs = S3FileSystem(anon=False, config_kwargs={'profile_name':"aws-biadmin"})

TypeError: Got unexpected keyword argument 'profile_name

Anything else we need to know? Multiple past issues states that kwargs should work
