Code borrowed from fog (https://github.com/geemus/fog). This gem will simply generate the AWS EC2 signature so that you can use your own HTTP methods and libraries to POST/GET to your choice of AWS/EC2 compatible API servers such as Eucalyptus, OpenNebula, OpenStack. Apparently, most of the AWS/EC2 API gems out there are not compatible with the aforementioned cloud frameworks, due to running on a custom port they do not account for that when generating the signature. Fog had implemented a compatible signature method, however, I did not want to use the EXCON http library implemented in it so I extracted the signature method only for use with my own choice of HTTP library. ############################## #### OpenStack Example 1 #### ############################## require 'ec2-signature' # pass a hash containing your aws auth params to new obj mysig = EC2Signature.new( { :awsaccessid => 'abcde12345fiow13jlaf1', :awssecretkey => '1380adj13j43jklj32a', :ec2url => 'http://myec2server:8773/services/Cloud' } ) # to generate a signature only, provide the query action you want to issue to your ec2 provider mysig.sign 'DescribeImages' signature = mysig.signature # OR use the example net/http post method to post your signature to the ec2_url specified above mysig.submit 'DescribeImages' # will parse the xml body and return a data hash ############################## #### OpenStack Example 2 #### ############################## # opennebula's aws/ec2 api implementation has a diff path for admin cmds mysig.path = '/services/Admin' # generate only the signature if you want: mysig.sign 'DescribeUser', {'Name' => 'jsmith', } signature = mysig.signature # OR use the example net/http post method to post your signature to the ec2_url specified above mysig.submit 'DescribeUser', {'Name' => 'jsmith', }
