Announcement:

This repository (go-aws-auth) will soon be archived and will subsequently be removed on September 1, 2018. Between now and then, any who wish may fork the repo and continue development on said forks.

Background

We have come to the realization that our usage of this package is limited to only 2 aws operations:

  • S3: GetObject
  • S3: PutObject

So, we have opted to create a separate, single-purpose library to accomplish this specific purpose and replace go-aws-auth. We realize that there are those who have much grander ambitions for this library and we're sorry we haven't engaged with your issues and pull requests--we just no longer have a need for the kind of general-purpose AWS signing library that this package originally set out to be. Also, we created this repo when there were no official AWS SDKs for go (v1 and v2). There's also the recently released go-cloud SDK to think about now, too.

That's all for now. Thanks for reading!
