 HTTP signatures is one of those things that are much easier to do with actual code instead of manually. The signature looks like this:
 
-    Signature: keyId="https://my-example.com/actor#main-key",headers="(request-target) host date",signature="..."
+    Signature: keyId="https://my-example.com/actor#main-key",headers="(request-target) host date digest",signature="..."
 
 The `keyId` refers to public key of our actor, the `header` lists the headers that are used for building the signature, and then finally, the `signature` string itself. The order of the headers must be the same in plain-text and within the to-be-signed string, and header names are always lowercase. The `(request-target)` is a special, fake header that pins down the HTTP method and the path of the destination.

 Mind that there is only a ±30 seconds time window when that signature would be considered valid, which is a big reason why it’s quite difficult to do manually. Anyway, assuming we’ve got the valid date in there, we now need to build a signed string out of it. Let’s put it all together:
