Overview

– AWS ERROR CODES AWS can throw error exceptions that contain a ‘.’ in them. since we can’t name an exception class with that ‘.’ I compressed each class name into the non-dot version which allows us to retain the granularity of the exception. ++

Class Method Details

.canonical_string(params, host, method = "POST", base = "/") ⇒ String

Builds the canonical string for signing requests. This strips out all ‘&’, ‘?’, and ‘=’ from the query string to be signed. The parameters in the path passed in must already be sorted in case-insensitive alphabetical order and must not be url encoded.

Parameters:

  • params (String)

    the params that will be sorted and encoded as a canonical string.

  • host (String)

    the hostname of the API endpoint.

  • method (String) (defaults to: "POST")

    the HTTP method that will be used to submit the params.

  • base (String) (defaults to: "/")

    the URI path that this information will be submitted to.

Returns:

  • (String)

    the canonical request description string.

def AWS.canonical_string(params, host, method="POST", base="/")
  # Sort, and encode parameters into a canonical string.
  sorted_params = params.sort {|x,y| x[0] <=> y[0]}
  encoded_params = sorted_params.collect do |p|
    encoded = (CGI::escape(p[0].to_s) +
               "=" + CGI::escape(p[1].to_s))
    # Ensure spaces are encoded as '%20', not '+'
    encoded.gsub('+', '%20')
  end
  sigquery = encoded_params.join("&")

  # Generate the request description string
  req_desc =
    method + "\n" +
    host + "\n" +
    base + "\n" +
    sigquery

end

.encode(secret_access_key, str, urlencode = true) ⇒ String

Encodes the given string with the secret_access_key by taking the hmac-sha1 sum, and then base64 encoding it. Optionally, it will also url encode the result of that to protect the string if it’s going to be used as a query string parameter.

Parameters:

  • secret_access_key (String)

    the user’s secret access key for signing.

  • str (String)

    the string to be hashed and encoded.

  • urlencode (Boolean) (defaults to: true)

    whether or not to url encode the result., true or false

Returns:

  • (String)

    the signed and encoded string.
