Cloud SDK patterns — storage, serverless handlers, secrets, and deployment helpers.
Generate a Mock Presigned URL in Python with HMAC
Build a mock AWS S3 presigned URL using an HMAC-SHA256 signature, mimicking the core SigV4 pattern without cloud SDK dependencies.
import hashlib
import hmac
import time
import base64
def generate_presigned_url_mock(secret_key, bucket, object_key, expires_in=3600):
# Build the canonical request string (simplified AWS SigV4 style)
timestamp = str(int(time.time()))
expiry = str(int(time.time()) + expires_in)
payload = f"GET\n/{buck…

Mock S3, GCS, and Azure storage with a Python abstract interface
Define an abstract Storage interface and implement a local, filesystem-backed mock so S3, GCS, and Azure code can be tested without cloud dependencies.
from abc import ABC, abstractmethod
from pathlib import Path
class Storage(ABC):
@abstractmethod
def put(self, name: str, data: bytes) -> None:
pass
@abstractmethod
def get(self, name: str) -> bytes:
pass
class LocalStorage(Storage):
def __init__(self, base_dir: str = "mock_sto…
