artillery-plugin-aws-sigv4

A plugin for artillery.io that signs HTTP requests using the AWS Signature V4 specification.

To use:

1. npm install -g artillery

2. npm install artillery-plugin-aws-sigv4

3. Add aws-sigv4 plugin config to your "hello.json" Artillery script

   {
     "config": {
       "plugins": {
         "aws-sigv4": {
            "serviceName": "execute-api"
          }
       }
     },
     "scenarios": [
       {
         "beforeRequest": "addAmazonSignatureV4"
       }
     ]
   }

4. artillery run hello.json

This will add an authentication header to every request that conforms to V4 of the AWS Signature Specification.
