This package contains optional dependency @aws-sdk/signature-v4-crt
.
You need to install this package explicitly to sign an un-regional request using SigV4a algorithm. The package contains
Node.js native implementation which requires building at installation. The installed package MAY NOT work if the
instance building the package runs a different operating system than the instance running the application.
The @aws-sdk/signature-v4-crt
is only supported in Node.js currently because it depends on a native dependency.
Please refer to this issue for more information.
Note: You can also use a native JS (non-CRT) implementation of the SigV4A signer, instructions for which are here: https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js-v3/tree/main#functionality-requiring-aws-common-runtime-crt
Please refer to the note regarding bundle size in the link above, before deciding to use the JS SigV4A signer (including in browsers).
This package provides a SigV4-compatible request signer that wraps a pure-JS SigV4 signer
(@aws-sdk/signature-v4
) for regional requests, and attempts to
call a native implementation of SigV4a signer(@aws-sdk/signature-v4-crt
)
it the request is multi-region.
A multi-region request is identified by the signingRegion
parameter. A request is multi-region if the signingRegion
parameter is set to *
