Generates AWS Signature Version 4
signature_v4( secret = NULL, date = format(Sys.time(), "%Y%m%d"), region = NULL, service, string_to_sign, verbose = getOption("verbose", FALSE) )
secret |
An AWS Secret Access Key. If |
date |
A character string containing a date in the form of “YYMMDD”. If missing, it is generated automatically using |
region |
A character string containing the AWS region for the request. If missing, “us-east-1” is assumed. |
service |

This function generates an AWS Signature Version 4 for authorizing API requests from its pre-formatted components. Users probably only need to use the signature_v4_auth
function to generate signatures.
