php-awsHow can I use AWS PHP SDK without credentials?

The AWS PHP SDK can be used without credentials by using the AnonymousAWSCredentials class. This can be used to make basic requests to AWS services without the need for any credentials.

Below is an example of how to use the AnonymousAWSCredentials class to make a request to the AWS S3 service:

// Include the AWS SDK
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

// Create a new anonymous credentials object
$credentials = new Aws\Credentials\AnonymousAWSCredentials();

// Create a new S3 client using the anonymous credentials
$s3Client = new Aws\S3\S3Client([
    'region' => 'us-east-1',
    'version' => 'latest',
    'credentials' => $credentials
]);

// Make a request to the S3 service
$result = $s3Client->listBuckets();

// Output the result
print_r($result);

Output example

Array
(
    [Buckets] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [Name] => my-bucket
                    [CreationDate] => 2020-10-20T12:34:56+00:00
                )
            ...
        )
)

The code above consists of the following parts:

1. Include the AWS SDK: require 'vendor/autoload.php';
2. Create a new anonymous credentials object: $credentials = new Aws\Credentials\AnonymousAWSCredentials();
3. Create a new S3 client using the anonymous credentials:

$s3Client = new Aws\S3\S3Client([
    'region' => 'us-east-1',
    'version' => 'latest',
    'credentials' => $credentials
]);

4. Make a request to the S3 service: $result = $s3Client->listBuckets();
5. Output the result: print_r($result);
