Overview

Amazon's CloudFront

http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/APIReference/Welcome.html

As CloudFront is much closer to a RESTful service than the other AWS APIs, all calls through this API are done through these four HTTP methods: GET, PUT, DELETE, and POST.

The paths for all request get the version prepended on to them, you do not have to worry about that part of the path. Outside of this, in keeping with the goals of SimpleAWS, everything else should be exactly as you read it in the AWS API docs in the link above.

So "GET Distribution List" is

cloud_front.get "/distribution"

For requests that need extra parameters, use the :params option

cloud_front.get "/distribution", :params => {
  "MaxItems" => 10
}

Like :params, use :headers to add headers to the request

cloud_front.get "/distribution", :headers => {
  "x-amz-security-token" => "security string"
}

The details of CloudFront requests are all passed through XML bodies. To make this as simple and painless as possible, this API supports the :xml option to turn a Hash into an XML string

cloud_front.post "/distribution", :xml => {
  :DistributionConfig => {
    ...
  }
}

Do note that this XML building is very simple, does not support attributes, and will only work on Hashes, Arrays, and objects that can be easily to_s-ed. Anything else will error out or might result in invalid request bodies.

If you already have the XML string and just need to give it to the request, you can use :body to set the raw value of the request body:

cloud_front.post "/distribution", :body => raw_body_xml

All responses are wrapped in a SimpleAWS::Response object.
