firsrt is to send request Signed_request.php





function aws_signed_request($region,$params,$public_key,$private_key,$associate_tag)

$method = "GET";
$host = "ecs.amazonaws.".$region; // must be in small case
$uri = "/onca/xml";

$params["Timestamp"] = gmdate("Y-m-d\TH:i:s\Z");
$params["Version"] = "2009-03-31";

/* The params need to be sorted by the key, as Amazon does this at
their end and then generates the hash of the same. If the params
are not in order then the generated hash will be different thus
failing the authetication process.
*/
ksort($params);

$canonicalized_query = array();

foreach ($params as $param=>$value)
{
$param = str_replace("%7E", "~", rawurlencode($param));
$value = str_replace("%7E", "~", rawurlencode($value));
$canonicalized_query[] = $param."=".$value;
}

$canonicalized_query = implode("&", $canonicalized_query);

$string_to_sign = $method."\n".$host."\n".$uri."\n".$canonicalized_query;

/* calculate the signature using HMAC with SHA256 and base64-encoding.
The 'hash_hmac' function is only available from PHP 5 >= 5.1.2.
*/
$signature = base64_encode(hash_hmac("sha256", $string_to_sign, $private_key, True));

/* encode the signature for the request */
$signature = str_replace("%7E", "~", rawurlencode($signature));

/* create request */
$request = "http://".$host.$uri."?".$canonicalized_query."&Signature=".$signature;

/* I prefer using CURL */
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$request);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 15);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);

$xml_response = curl_exec($ch);

/* If cURL doesn't work for you, then use the 'file_get_contents'
function as given below.
*/
