S3 client for v3 authentication complient Go SDK

[raunak-agarwal-flipkart]

I need to implement Go client for s3 which is v3 authentication compliant. While going through the previous releases, I didn't find any particular mention of v3 authentication. Can somebody point to the relevant release and a sample Go client for the same.

Hi @raunak-agarwal-flipkart thanks for contacting us. The SDK does not implement the v3 authentication method. In general the SDK only supports v4, with the exception of v2 for SimpleDB.

The best references to the V3 authentication i could find is implementations in the AWS SDK for Ruby. There are the ruby signing implementations for HTTP and HTTPS protocols.

@jasdel
Is there any other SDK for Go using v2? Sorry for the inactivity though.

Hi @Rauk the AWS SDK for Go is capable of using v2 signature for services and regions which support it, but v4 is prefered and will work in all AWS regions. Is there an AWS service you need to use V2 signing with, but unable to use v4? The signers are in the private/signers package path. If you would like to use a service with v2 you can modify the Sign request handler list to use the v2 signer instead.

Or are you looking for a standalone v2 request signer? The both SDK's signers are specific to the SDK's request structure.
