Plugin

Caddy plugin for signing and proxying requests to AWS Elasticsearch (AWS ES). Configuring access to an AWS ES domain can be tricky. The access policy of an AWS ES domain is based on a principal (which necessitates a signed request) or an IP address whitelist. Whitelisting IP addresses often isn't a viable option and standard tools (such as curl or a browser) can't properly sign requests. This is exactly the problem this plugin aims to address. Standard tools can make unauthenticated requests to the Caddy server which are then signed and proxied to the AWS ES service.
