I am using Digital Ocean Spaces to host some video classes. Files are private because I don’t want to anyone directly access them.

I found this answer with the code I need to stream videos to only authenticated users, but it only works with local files –– so to get a private file from DO Spaces I need to first auth with their SDK, but I can’t do that.

They use the same parameters of Amazon S3, but I couldn’t create a connection since Amazon SDK doesn’t a allow changing the host (in this case, should be nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com).

<?php

define('AWS_KEY', ' _DigitalOcean Spaces Key_ ');
define('AWS_SECRET_KEY', ' _DigitalOcean Spaces SecretKey_ ');

define('AWS_CANONICAL_ID', ' __?__ ');
define('AWS_CANONICAL_NAME', ' __?__ ');

$HOST = 'https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com';

require 'aws/aws-autoloader.php';

$Connection = new AmazonS3(array(
    'key' => AWS_KEY,
    'secret' => AWS_SECRET_KEY,
    'canonical_id' => AWS_CANONICAL_ID,
    'canonical_name' => AWS_CANONICAL_NAME,
));
$Connection->set_hostname($HOST);
$Connection->allow_hostname_override(false);

$Connection->enable_path_style();

$file = "videos/" . $_GET['video'] . ".mp4";

$Connection->get_object('myBucket', $file);

$fakefilename = "./show-video/" . $_GET['video'] . ".mp4";

Can anyone help me? I am totally lost right now.
