AWS SigV4 Proxy

The AWS SigV4 Proxy will sign incoming HTTP requests and forward them to the host specified in the Host header.

You can strip out arbirtary headers from the incoming request by using the -s option.

Getting Started

Build and run the Proxy

The proxy uses the default AWS SDK for Go credential search path:

* Environment variables.
* Shared credentials file.
* IAM role for Amazon EC2 or ECS task role

More information can be found in the [developer guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/v1/developer-guide/configuring-sdk.html)

docker build -t aws-sigv4-proxy .

# Env vars
docker run --rm -ti \
  -e 'AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<YOUR ACCESS KEY ID>' \
  -e 'AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<YOUR SECRET ACCESS KEY>' \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  aws-sigv4-proxy -v

# Shared Credentials
docker run --rm -ti \
  -v ~/.aws:/root/.aws \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -e 'AWS_PROFILE=<SOME PROFILE>' \
  aws-sigv4-proxy -v

Examples

S3

# us-east-1
curl -s -H 'host: s3.amazonaws.com' http://localhost:8080/<BUCKET_NAME>

# other region
curl -s -H 'host: s3.<BUCKET_REGION>.amazonaws.com' http://localhost:8080/<BUCKET_NAME>

SQS

curl -s -H 'host: sqs.<AWS_REGION>.amazonaws.com' 'http://localhost:8080/<AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>/<QUEUE_NAME>?Action=SendMessage&MessageBody=example'

API Gateway

curl -H 'host: <REST_API_ID>.execute-api.<AWS_REGION>.amazonaws.com' http://localhost:8080/<STAGE>/<PATH>

Running the service and stripping out sigv2 authorization headers

docker run --rm -ti \
  -v ~/.aws:/root/.aws \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -e 'AWS_PROFILE=<SOME PROFILE>' \
  aws-sigv4-proxy -v -s Authorization

Running the service with Assume Role to use temporary credentials

docker run --rm -ti \
  -v ~/.aws:/root/.aws \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -e 'AWS_PROFILE=<SOME PROFILE>' \
  aws-sigv4-proxy -v --role-arn <ARN OF ROLE TO ASSUME>

Include service name & region overrides when you notice errors like unable to determine service from host for API gateway, for example.

docker run --rm -ti \
  -v ~/.aws:/root/.aws \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -e 'AWS_PROFILE=<SOME PROFILE>' \
  aws-sigv4-proxy -v --name execute-api --region us-east-1
