S3 Upload String using AWS Signature Version 2

See more Amazon S3 (new) Examples

Example to upload the contents of a string to the Amazon S3 service, using the older AWS Signature Version 2. CkPython

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

# Demonstrates how to use older AWS S3 Signature Version 2 for uploading the contents
# of a string variable to an object in a bucket.

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# Connect to the Amazon AWS REST server.
bTls = True
port = 443

# The file is uploaded to the bucket named "chilkat100", which becomes part of the domain:
success = rest.Connect("chilkat100.s3.amazonaws.com",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect)

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Important: For buckets created in regions outside us-east-1,
# there are three important changes that need to be made.
# See Working with S3 Buckets in Non-us-east-1 Regions for the details.

# Provide AWS credentials for the REST call.

# For AWS Signature Version 2, the following two properties need to be set:
authAws.put_SignatureVersion(2)
# See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/RESTAuthentication.html#ConstructingTheCanonicalizedResourceElement
# The bucket is "chilkat100", and the uriPath is "/hamlet_play.xml", which must match
# the URI path passed to the FullRequestString method below.
authAws.put_CanonicalizedResourceV2("/chilkat100/hamlet_play.xml")
