// Package credentials provides credential retrieval and management // // The Credentials is the primary method of getting access to and managing // credentials Values. Using dependency injection retrieval of the credential // values is handled by a object which satisfies the Provider interface. // // By default the Credentials.Get() will cache the successful result of a // Provider's Retrieve() until Provider.IsExpired() returns true. At which // point Credentials will call Provider's Retrieve() to get new credential Value. // // The Provider is responsible for determining when credentials Value have expired. // It is also important to note that Credentials will always call Retrieve the // first time Credentials.Get() is called. // // Example of using the environment variable credentials. // // creds := NewEnvCredentials() // // // Retrieve the credentials value // credValue, err := creds.Get() // if err != nil { // // handle error // } // // Example of forcing credentials to expire and be refreshed on the next Get(). // This may be helpful to proactively expire credentials and refresh them sooner // than they would naturally expire on their own. // // creds := NewCredentials(&EC2RoleProvider{}) // creds.Expire() // credsValue, err := creds.Get() // // New credentials will be retrieved instead of from cache. // // // Custom Provider // // Each Provider built into this package also provides a helper method to generate // a Credentials pointer setup with the provider. To use a custom Provider just // create a type which satisfies the Provider interface and pass it to the // NewCredentials method. // // type MyProvider struct{} // func (m *MyProvider) Retrieve() (Value, error) {...} // func (m *MyProvider) IsExpired() bool {...} // // creds := NewCredentials(&MyProvider{}) // credValue, err := creds.Get() // package credentials import ( "sync" "time" ) // AnonymousCredentials is an empty Credential object that can be used as // dummy placeholder credentials for requests that do not need signed. // // This Credentials can be used to configure a service to not sign requests // when making service API calls. For example, when accessing public // s3 buckets. // // svc := s3.New(&aws.Config{Credentials: AnonymousCredentials}) // // Access public S3 buckets. // // @readonly var AnonymousCredentials = NewStaticCredentials("", "", "") // A Value is the AWS credentials value for individual credential fields. type Value struct { // AWS Access key ID AccessKeyID string // AWS Secret Access Key SecretAccessKey string // AWS Session Token SessionToken string // Provider used to get credentials ProviderName string } // A Provider is the interface for any component which will provide credentials // Value.
