Call REST API for Amazon Kinesis with Setting up API Gateway

问题

I am trying to send a HTTP Post Request to put a record into Amazon Kinesis Stream. There are several ways (Kinesis Client, KPL, setting up AWS Gateway as Kinesis Proxy).

I saw this document about Kinesis PutRecord API http://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesis/latest/APIReference/API_PutRecord.html

POST / HTTP/1.1
Host: kinesis.<region>.<domain>
Content-Length: <PayloadSizeBytes>
User-Agent: <UserAgentString>
Content-Type: application/x-amz-json-1.1
Authorization: <AuthParams>
Connection: Keep-Alive 
X-Amz-Date: <Date>
X-Amz-Target: Kinesis_20131202.PutRecord
{
  "StreamName": "exampleStreamName",
  "Data": "XzxkYXRhPl8x",
  "PartitionKey": "partitionKey"
}

Is it possible to send the above HTTP POST Request to PutRecord without having to set up Amazon API Gateway as explained in this link: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/use-custom-authorizer.html#call-api-with-api-gateway-custom-authorization

KPL and Kinesis Client must somehow internally use HTTP POST to PutRecord, so there must be a way to do so. Unfortunately, I could not find any resources online.

print r.text

Just change the required parameters in the code that are marked with <> and you ll be able to hit the endpoint via HTTP. This is only applicable if you cant use aws-sdk or aws-cli for some reason.

The above code is in python.

for transformation, check the following link. https://github.com/danharper/hmac-examples

You possibly could setup API Gateway to hook up the RESTful API call to Kinesis.Since you need to setup the IAM Role and policy for the Kinesis APIs, and associate it with the AWS service proxy for Kinesis.

The link you posted is how you can custom the authorizer, the API Gateway is still running behind the things.

After setting up the API Gateway, you can refer https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesis/latest/APIReference/API_CreateStream.html to manage your kinesis streams/records.
