NAME Net::Amazon::Signature::V4 - Implements the Amazon Web Services signature version 4, AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 VERSION Version 0.20 SYNOPSIS use Net::Amazon::Signature::V4; my $sig = Net::Amazon::Signature::V4->new( $access_key_id, $secret, $endpoint, $service ); my $req = HTTP::Request->parse( $request_string ); my $signed_req = $sig->sign( $req ); ... DESCRIPTION This module signs an HTTP::Request to Amazon Web Services by appending an Authorization header. Amazon Web Services signature version 4, AWS4-HMAC-SHA256, is used. The primary purpose of this module is to be used by Net::Amazon::Glacier. METHODS new my $sig = Net::Amazon::Signature::V4->new( $access_key_id, $secret, $endpoint, $service ); my $sig = Net::Amazon::Signature::V4->new({ access_key_id => $access_key_id, secret => $secret, endpoint => $endpoint, service => $service, }); Constructs the signature object, which is used to sign requests. Note that the access key ID is an alphanumeric string, not your account ID. The endpoint could be "eu-west-1", and the service could be "glacier". Since version 0.20, parameters can be passed in a hashref. The keys "access_key_id", "secret", "endpoint", and "service" are required. "security_token", if passed, will be applied to each signed request as the "X-Amz-Security-Token" header. sign my $signed_request = $sig->sign( $request ); Signs a request with your credentials by appending the Authorization header. $request should be an HTTP::Request. The signed request is returned.
