CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4(3) libcurl CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4 - V4 signature
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4, char *param);
DESCRIPTION
Provides AWS V4 signature authentication on HTTP(S) header.
Pass a char * that is the collection of specific arguments are used for
creating outgoing authentication headers. The format of the param
option is:
provider1[:provider2[:region[:service]]]
provider1, provider2
The providers arguments are used for generating some authentica-
tion parameters such as "Algorithm", "date", "request type" and
"signed headers".
region The argument is a geographic area of a resources collection. It
is extracted from the host name specified in the URL if omitted.
service
The argument is a function provided by a cloud. It is extracted
from the host name specified in the URL if omitted.
NOTE: This call set CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH(3) to CURLAUTH_AWS_SIGV4. Calling
CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH(3) with CURLAUTH_AWS_SIGV4 is the same as calling this
with "aws:amz" in parameter.
Example with "Test:Try", when curl uses the algorithm, it generates
"TEST-HMAC-SHA256" for "Algorithm", "x-try-date" and "X-Try-Date" for
"date", "test4_request" for "request type", "SignedHeaders=content-
type;host;x-try-date" for "signed headers"
If you use just "test", instead of "test:try", test is used for every
generated string.
DEFAULT
By default, the value of this parameter is NULL. Calling CUR-
LOPT_HTTPAUTH(3) with CURLAUTH_AWS_SIGV4 is the same as calling this
with "aws:amz" in parameter.
PROTOCOLS
HTTP
EXAMPLE
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL,
"https://service.region.example.com/uri");
curl_easy_setopt(c, CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4, "provider1:provider2");
/* service and region can also be set in CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4 */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/uri");
curl_easy_setopt(c, CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4,
"provider1:provider2:region:service");
curl_easy_setopt(c, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "MY_ACCESS_KEY:MY_SECRET_KEY");
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.75.0
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION
if not.
NOTES
This option overrides the other auth types you might have set in CUR-
LOPT_HTTPAUTH(3) which should be highlighted as this makes this auth
method special. This method cannot be combined with other auth types.
A sha256 checksum of the request payload is used as input to the signa-
ture calculation. For POST requests, this is a checksum of the pro-
vided CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS(3). Otherwise, it's the checksum of an empty
buffer. For requests like PUT, you can provide your own checksum in an
HTTP header named x-provider2-content-sha256.
For aws:s3, a x-amz-content-sha256 header is added to every request if
not already present. For s3 requests with unknown payload, this header
takes the special value "UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD".
