Preparing the Environment

This section uses Linux Ubuntu as an example. Before calling APIs, install the required SSL tools.

Install the OpenSSL library.
1

apt-get install libssl-dev
Install the curl library.
1

apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

Obtaining the SDK

Download the SDK and demo.

Decompress the downloaded package to the current folder. The following table shows the directory structure.

Name	Description
signer_common.c	SDK code
signer_common.h
signer.c
signer.h
Makefile	Makefile file
main.c	Sample code

Request Signing and API Calling

Add the following references to main.c:

      
           #include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <curl/curl.h>
#include "signer.h"

Generate a sig_params_t variable, and enter the AK and SK.

In this example, the AK and SK stored in the environment variables are used. Specify the environment variables HUAWEICLOUD_SDK_AK and HUAWEICLOUD_SDK_SK in the local environment first. The following uses Linux as an example to describe how to set the obtained AK/SK as environment variables.
1. Open the terminal and run the following command to open the environment variable configuration file:
  vi ~/.bashrc
2. Set environment variables, save the file, and exit the editor.
```
export HUAWEICLOUD_SDK_AK="Obtained AK"
export HUAWEICLOUD_SDK_SK="Obtained SK"
```
3. Run the following command to apply the modification:
  source ~/.bashrc

Generate a sig_params_t variable, and enter the configured environment variables.

        
             sig_params_t params;
sig_params_init(&params);
// Directly writing AK/SK in code is risky. For security, encrypt your AK/SK and store them in the configuration file or environment variables.
// In this example, the AK/SK are stored in environment variables for identity authentication. Before running this example, set environment variables HUAWEICLOUD_SDK_AK and HUAWEICLOUD_SDK_SK.
sig_str_t ak = sig_str(getenv("HUAWEICLOUD_SDK_AK"));
sig_str_t sk = sig_str(getenv("HUAWEICLOUD_SDK_SK"));
params.key = ak;
params.secret = sk;

Specify the method, domain name, request URI, query strings, and request body.

      
           sig_str_t host = sig_str("service.region.example.com");
sig_str_t method = sig_str("GET");
sig_str_t uri = sig_str("/v1/{project_id}/vpcs");
sig_str_t query_str = sig_str("limit=2");
sig_str_t payload = sig_str("");
params.host = host;
params.method = method;
params.uri = uri;
params.query_str = query_str;
params.payload = payload;

Add header parameters or other headers required for other purposes. For example, add the X-Project-Id header in multi-project scenarios or the X-Domain-Id header for a global service.

      
           //Add header parameters, for example, X-Domain-Id for invoking a global service and X-Project-Id for invoking a project-level service.
sig_headers_add(&params.headers, "X-Project-Id", "xxx");

Execute the following function to add the generated headers as request variables.
1

sig_sign(&params);

Use the curl library to access the API and view the access result.

      
       
         
         
           static size_t

{
    size_t realsize = size * nmemb;
    struct MemoryStruct *mem = (struct MemoryStruct *)userp;

    mem->memory = (char*)realloc(mem->memory, mem->size + realsize + 1);
    if (mem->memory == NULL) {
        /* out of memory! */
        printf("not enough memory (realloc returned NULL)\n");
        return 0;
    }

    memcpy(&(mem->memory[mem->size]), contents, realsize);
    mem->size += realsize;
    mem->memory[mem->size] = 0;

    return realsize;
}
