}

SignRequestHandler is a named request handler the SDK will use to sign service client request with using the V4 signature.

Functions

func SignSDKRequest

func SignSDKRequest(req *request.Request)

SignSDKRequest signs an AWS request with the V4 signature. This request handler is bested used only with the SDK's built in service client's API operation requests.

This function should not be used on its on its own, but in conjunction with an AWS service client's API operation call. To sign a standalone request not created by a service client's API operation method use the "Sign" or "Presign" functions of the "Signer" type.

If the credentials of the request's config are set to credentials.AnonymousCredentials the request will not be signed.

Types

type Signer

type Signer struct {
	// The authentication credentials the request will be signed against.
	// This value must be set to sign requests.
	Credentials *credentials.Credentials

	// Sets the log level the signer should use when reporting information to
	// the logger. If the logger is nil nothing will be logged. See
	// aws.LogLevelType for more information on available logging levels
	//
	// By default nothing will be logged.
	Debug aws.LogLevelType

	// The logger loging information will be written to. If there the logger
	// is nil, nothing will be logged.
	Logger aws.Logger

	// Disables the Signer's moving HTTP header key/value pairs from the HTTP
	// request header to the request's query string. This is most commonly used
	// with pre-signed requests preventing headers from being added to the
	// request's query string.
	DisableHeaderHoisting bool
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Signer applies AWS v4 signing to given request. Use this to sign requests that need to be signed with AWS V4 Signatures.

func NewSigner

func NewSigner(credentials *credentials.Credentials, options ...func(*Signer)) *Signer

NewSigner returns a Signer pointer configured with the credentials and optional option values provided. If not options are provided the Signer will use its default configuration.

func (Signer) Presign

func (v4 Signer) Presign(r *http.Request, body io.ReadSeeker, service, region string, exp time.Duration, signTime time.Time) (http.Header, error)

Presign signs AWS v4 requests with the provided body, service name, region the request is made to, and time the request is signed at. The signTime allows you to specify that a request is signed for the future, and cannot be used until then.

Returns a list of HTTP headers that were included in the signature or an error if signing the request failed. For presigned requests these headers and their values must be included on the HTTP request when it is made. This is helpful to know what header values need to be shared with the party the presigned request will be distributed to.

Presign differs from Sign in that it will sign the request using query string instead of header values. This allows you to share the Presigned Request's URL with third parties, or distribute it throughout your system with minimal dependencies.

Presign also takes an exp value which is the duration the signed request will be valid after the signing time. This is allows you to set when the request will expire.

The requests body is an io.ReadSeeker so the SHA256 of the body can be generated. To bypass the signer computing the hash you can set the "X-Amz-Content-Sha256" header with a precomputed value. The signer will only compute the hash if the request header value is empty.

Presigning a S3 request will not compute the body's SHA256 hash by default. This is done due to the general use case for S3 presigned URLs is to share PUT/GET capabilities. If you would like to include the body's SHA256 in the presigned request's signature you can set the "X-Amz-Content-Sha256" HTTP header and that will be included in the request's signature.

func (Signer) Sign

func (v4 Signer) Sign(r *http.Request, body io.ReadSeeker, service, region string, signTime time.Time) (http.Header, error)

Sign signs AWS v4 requests with the provided body, service name, region the request is made to, and time the request is signed at. The signTime allows you to specify that a request is signed for the future, and cannot be used until then.

Returns a list of HTTP headers that were included in the signature or an error if signing the request failed. Generally for signed requests this value is not needed as the full request context will be captured by the http.Request value. It is included for reference though.

Sign differs from Presign in that it will sign the request using HTTP header values. This type of signing is intended for http.Request values that will not be shared, or are shared in a way the header values on the request will not be lost.

The requests body is an io.ReadSeeker so the SHA256 of the body can be generated. To bypass the signer computing the hash you can set the "X-Amz-Content-Sha256" header with a precomputed value. The signer will only compute the hash if the request header value is empty.
