Constructor Details

#initialize(options = {}) ⇒ Client

Creates a new low-level client.

Required Options

To create a client you must provide access to AWS credentials. There are two options:

  • :signer – An object that responds to access_key_id (to return the AWS Access Key ID) and to sign(string_to_sign) (to return a signature for a given string). An example implementation is AWS::Core::DefaultSigner. This option is useful if you want to more tightly control access to your secret access key (for example by moving the signature computation into a different process).

  • :access_key_id and :secret_access_key – You can use these options to provide the AWS Access Key ID and AWS Secret Access Key directly to the client.

Optional

  • :http_handler – Any object that implements a handle(request, response) method; an example is BuiltinHttpHandler. This method is used to perform the HTTP requests that this client constructs.

Instance Method Details

#new_stub_for(method_name) ⇒ Object

Primarily used for testing, this method returns an empty psuedo service response without making a request. Its used primarily for testing the ligher level service interfaces.

#with_config(config) ⇒ Core::Client

Parameters:

Returns:

  • (Core::Client)

    Returns a new client object with the given configuration.

#with_http_handler(handler = nil, &blk) ⇒ Core::Client

Returns a copy of the client with a different HTTP handler. You can pass an object like BuiltinHttpHandler or you can use a block; for example:

s3_with_logging = s3.with_http_handler do |request, response|
  $stderr.puts request.inspect
  super
end

The block executes in the context of an HttpHandler instance, and super delegates to the HTTP handler used by this client. This provides an easy way to spy on requests and responses. See HttpHandler, HttpRequest, and HttpResponse for more details on how to implement a fully functional HTTP handler using a different HTTP library than the one that ships with Ruby.

Parameters:

  • handler (nil) (defaults to: nil)

    A new http handler. Leave blank and pass a block to wrap the current handler with the block.

Returns:

  • (Core::Client)

    Returns a new instance of the client class with the modified or wrapped http handler.
