[![Build Status](https://api.travis-ci.org/mhart/aws4.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/github/mhart/aws4) |
|
|
|
A small utility to sign vanilla Node.js http(s) request options using Amazon's |
|
[AWS Signature Version 4](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-version-4.html). |
|
|
|
If you want to sign and send AWS requests in a modern browser, or an environment like [Cloudflare Workers](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/), then check out [aws4fetch](https://github.com/mhart/aws4fetch) – otherwise you can also bundle this library for use [in older browsers](./browser). |
|
|
|
The only AWS service that *doesn't* support v4 as of 2020-05-22 is |
|
[SimpleDB](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonSimpleDB/latest/DeveloperGuide/SDB_API.html) |
|
(it only supports [AWS Signature Version 2](https://github.com/mhart/aws2)). |
|
|
|
It also provides defaults for a number of core AWS headers and |
|
request parameters, making it very easy to query AWS services, or |
|
build out a fully-featured AWS library. |
|
|
|
Example |
|
------- |
|
|
|
```javascript |
|
var https = require('https') |
|
var aws4 = require('aws4') |
|
|
|
// to illustrate usage, we'll create a utility function to request and pipe to stdout |
|
function request(opts) { https.request(opts, function(res) { res.pipe(process.stdout) }).end(opts.body || '') } |
|
|
|
// aws4 will sign an options object as you'd pass to http.request, with an AWS service and region |
|
var opts = { host: 'my-bucket.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com', path: '/my-object', service: 's3', region: 'us-west-1' } |
|
|
|
// aws4.sign() will sign and modify these options, ready to pass to http.request |
|
aws4.sign(opts, { accessKeyId: '', secretAccessKey: '' }) |
|
|
|
// or it can get credentials from process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, etc |
|
aws4.sign(opts) |
|
|
|
// for most AWS services, aws4 can figure out the service and region if you pass a host |
|
opts = { host: 'my-bucket.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com', path: '/my-object' } |
|
|
|
// usually it will add/modify request headers, but you can also sign the query: |
|
opts = { host: 'my-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com', path: '/?X-Amz-Expires=12345', signQuery: true } |
|
|
|
// and for services with simple hosts, aws4 can infer the host from service and region: |
|
opts = { service: 'sqs', region: 'us-east-1', path: '/?Action=ListQueues' } |
|
|
|
// and if you're using us-east-1, it's the default: |
|
opts = { service: 'sqs', path: '/?Action=ListQueues' } |
|
|
|
aws4.sign(opts) |
|
console.log(opts) |
|
/* |
|
{ |
|
host: 'sqs.us-east-1.amazonaws.com', |
|
path: '/?Action=ListQueues', |
|
headers: { |
|
Host: 'sqs.us-east-1.amazonaws.com', |
|
'X-Amz-Date': '20121226T061030Z', |
|
Authorization: 'AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 Credential=ABCDEF/20121226/us-east-1/sqs/aws4_request, ...' |
|
} |
|
} |
|
*/ |
|
|
|
// we can now use this to query AWS |
|
request(opts) |
|
/* |
|
<?xml version="1.0"?> |
|
<ListQueuesResponse xmlns="https://queue.amazonaws.com/doc/2012-11-05/"> |
|
... |
|
*/ |
|
|
|
// aws4 can infer the HTTP method if a body is passed in |
|
// method will be POST and Content-Type: 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8' |
|
request(aws4.sign({ service: 'iam', body: 'Action=ListGroups&Version=2010-05-08' })) |
|
/* |
|
<ListGroupsResponse xmlns="https://iam.amazonaws.com/doc/2010-05-08/"> |
|
... |
|
*/ |
|
|
|
// you can specify any custom option or header as per usual |
|
request(aws4.sign({ |
|
service: 'dynamodb', |
|
region: 'ap-southeast-2', |
|
method: 'POST', |
|
path: '/', |
|
headers: { |
|
'Content-Type': 'application/x-amz-json-1.0', |
|
'X-Amz-Target': 'DynamoDB_20120810.ListTables' |
|
}, |
|
body: '{}' |
|
})) |
|
/* |
|
{"TableNames":[]} |
|
... |
|
*/ |
|
|
|
// The raw RequestSigner can be used to generate CodeCommit Git passwords |
|
var signer = new aws4.RequestSigner({ |
|
service: 'codecommit', |
|
host: 'git-codecommit.us-east-1.amazonaws.com', |
|
method: 'GIT', |
|
path: '/v1/repos/MyAwesomeRepo', |
|
}) |
|
var password = signer.getDateTime() + 'Z' + signer.signature() |

// see example.js for examples with other services |

### aws4.sign(requestOptions, [credentials]) |
|
|
|
Calculates and populates any necessary AWS headers and/or request |
|
options on `requestOptions`. Returns `requestOptions` as a convenience for chaining. |
|
|
|
`requestOptions` is an object holding the same options that the Node.js |
|
[http.request](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/http.html#http_http_request_options_callback) |
|
function takes. |
|
|
|
The following properties of `requestOptions` are used in the signing or |
|
populated if they don't already exist: |
|
|
|
- `hostname` or `host` (will try to be determined from `service` and `region` if not given) |
|
- `method` (will use `'GET'` if not given or `'POST'` if there is a `body`) |
|
- `path` (will use `'/'` if not given) |
|
- `body` (will use `''` if not given) |
|
- `service` (will try to be calculated from `hostname` or `host` if not given) |
|
- `region` (will try to be calculated from `hostname` or `host` or use `'us-east-1'` if not given) |
|
- `signQuery` (to sign the query instead of adding an `Authorization` header, defaults to false) |
|
- `headers['Host']` (will use `hostname` or `host` or be calculated if not given) |
|
- `headers['Content-Type']` (will use `'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8'` |
|
if not given and there is a `body`) |
|
- `headers['Date']` (used to calculate the signature date if given, otherwise `new Date` is used) |
|
|
|
Your AWS credentials (which can be found in your |
|
[AWS console](https://portal.aws.amazon.com/gp/aws/securityCredentials)) |
|
can be specified in one of two ways: |
|
|
|
- As the second argument, like this: |
|
|
|
```javascript |
|
aws4.sign(requestOptions, { |
|
secretAccessKey: "<your-secret-access-key>", |
|
accessKeyId: "<your-access-key-id>", |
|
sessionToken: "<your-session-token>" |
|
}) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
- From `process.env`, such as this: |
|
|
|
``` |
|
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="<your-access-key-id>" |
|
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="<your-secret-access-key>" |
|
export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN="<your-session-token>" |
|
``` |
|
|
|
(will also use `AWS_ACCESS_KEY` and `AWS_SECRET_KEY` if available) |
|
|
|
The `sessionToken` property and `AWS_SESSION_TOKEN` environment variable are optional for signing |
|
with [IAM STS temporary credentials](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_temp_use-resources.html). |
|
|
|
Installation |
|
------------ |
|
|
|
With [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) do: |
|
|
|
``` |
|
npm install aws4 |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Can also be used [in the browser](./browser). |

Thanks to [@jed](https://github.com/jed) for his |
|
[dynamo-client](https://github.com/jed/dynamo-client) lib where I first |
|
committed and subsequently extracted this code. |
|
|
|
Also thanks to the |
|
[official Node.js AWS SDK](https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js) for giving |
|
me a start on implementing the v4 signature.
