S3 Utils v0.6.1
User friendly interface to deal with Amazon S3 bucket and Cloud Front in Python. I wrote this since s3cmd is for command line usage and the other libraries out there seemed not maintained anymore. This is basically a higher level interface to S3 than boto. Easier to use, but way less options.
The s3utils methods are made to be just like Linux commands so it is easy to remember and use.
Behind the scene it is a light Python wrapper around Amazon Boto library.
Supported Python versions
Python 2.7, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 are supported.
Documentation
Installation
Install from PyPi:
pip install s3utils
Setup
Normal Setup
>>> from s3utils import S3utils
>>> s3utils = S3utils(
... AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = 'your access key',
... AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = 'your secret key',
... AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = 'your bucket name',
... S3UTILS_DEBUG_LEVEL = 1, # change it to 0 for less verbose
... )
Django Setup
If you are using s3utils in Django, follow this:
in your settings file:
S3UTILS_DEBUG_LEVEL = 1 # change it to 0 for less verbose
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = 'your access key'
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = 'your secret key'
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = 'your bucket name'
in your code:
>>> from s3utils import S3utils
>>> s3utils = S3utils()
Later in your code if you want to overwrite your bucket name in your code from what it is in the Django settings:
>>> from s3utils import S3utils
>>> s3utils = S3utils(AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME='some other bucket')
Commands
Mkdir
So let's start with a simple command: mkdir
Just what you would expect, it creates a folder on S3. Example:
>>> s3utils.mkdir("path/to/my_folder")
Making directory: path/to/my_folder
Cp
Copy a file or folder from local to S3.
Note: As of April 2016, S3utils does not currently support S3 to local direction. I plan to add it in future.
Cp Parameters
-
local_path : string
Path to file or folder. Or if you want to copy only the contents of folder, add /* at the end of folder name. Example:
s3utils.cp("/copy/contents/of/*", "/somewhere/on/s3/")
-
target_path : string
Target path on S3 bucket.
-
acl : string, optional
File permissions on S3. Default is public-read
acl options:
- private: Owner gets FULL_CONTROL. No one else has any access rights.
- public-read: Owners gets FULL_CONTROL and the anonymous principal is granted READ access.
- public-read-write: Owner gets FULL_CONTROL and the anonymous principal is granted READ and WRITE access.
- authenticated-read: Owner gets FULL_CONTROL and any principal authenticated as a registered Amazon S3 user is granted READ access
-
del_after_upload : boolean, optional
delete the local file after uploading. This is effectively like moving the file. You can use s3utils.mv instead of s3utils.cp to move files from local to S3. It basically sets this flag to True. default = False
-
overwrite : boolean, optional
overwrites files on S3 if set to True. Default is True
-
invalidate : boolean, optional
invalidates the CDN (a.k.a Distribution) cache if the file already exists on S3
default = False
Note that invalidation might take up to 15 minutes to take place. It is easier and faster to use cache buster to grab latest version of your file on CDN than invalidation.
Examples
>>> s3utils.cp("path/to/folder","/test/")
copying /path/to/myfolder/test2.txt to test/myfolder/test2.txt
copying /path/to/myfolder/test.txt to test/myfolder/test.txt
copying /path/to/myfolder/hoho/photo.JPG to test/myfolder/hoho/photo.JPG
copying /path/to/myfolder/hoho/haha/ff to test/myfolder/hoho/haha/ff
>>> # When overwrite is set to False:
>>> s3utils.cp("path/to/folder","/test/", overwrite=False)
test/myfolder/test2.txt already exist. Not overwriting.
test/myfolder/test.txt already exist. Not overwriting.
test/myfolder/hoho/photo.JPG already exist. Not overwriting.
test/myfolder/hoho/haha/ff already exist. Not overwriting.
>>> # To overwrite the files on S3 and invalidate the CDN (cloudfront) cache so the new file goes on CDN:
>>> s3utils.cp("path/to/folder","/test/", overwrite=True, invalidate=True)
copying /path/to/myfolder/test2.txt to test/myfolder/test2.txt
copying /path/to/myfolder/test.txt to test/myfolder/test.txt
copying /path/to/myfolder/hoho/photo.JPG to test/myfolder/hoho/photo.JPG
copying /path/to/myfolder/hoho/haha/ff to test/myfolder/hoho/haha/ff
Mv
Move the file to the S3 and deletes the local copy
It is basically s3utils.cp that has del_after_upload=True
Examples
>>> s3utils.mv("path/to/folder","/test/")
moving /path/to/myfolder/test2.txt to test/myfolder/test2.txt
moving /path/to/myfolder/test.txt to test/myfolder/test.txt
moving /path/to/myfolder/hoho/photo.JPG to test/myfolder/hoho/photo.JPG
moving /path/to/myfolder/hoho/haha/ff to test/myfolder/hoho/haha/ff
Chmod
sets permissions (acl) for a file on S3
Chmod Parameters
-
target_file : string
Path to file on S3
-
acl : string, optional
File permissions on S3. Default is public-read
options:
- private: Owner gets FULL_CONTROL. No one else has any access rights.
- public-read: Owners gets FULL_CONTROL and the anonymous principal is granted READ access.
- public-read-write: Owner gets FULL_CONTROL and the anonymous principal is granted READ and WRITE access.
- authenticated-read: Owner gets FULL_CONTROL and any principal authenticated as a registered Amazon S3 user is granted READ access
Examples
>>> s3utils.chmod("path/to/file","private")
Ls
gets the list of file names (keys) in a s3 folder
Ls Parameters
-
folder : string
Path to file on S3
-
num: integer, optional
number of results to return, by default it returns all results.
-
begin_from_file: string, optional
which file to start from on S3. This is useful in case you are iterating over lists of files and you need to page the result by starting listing from a certain file and fetching certain num (number) of files.
Examples
>>> print s3utils.ls("test/")
[u'test/myfolder/', u'test/myfolder/em/', u'test/myfolder/hoho/', u'test/myfolder/hoho/.DS_Store', u'test/myfolder/hoho/haha/', u'test/myfolder/hoho/haha/ff', u'test/myfolder/hoho/haha/photo.JPG']
LL
Get the list of files and permissions from S3

-
num: integer, optional
number of results to return, by default it returns all results.
-

This is useful in case you are iterating over lists of files and you need to page the result by starting listing from a certain file and fetching certain num (number) of files.
-
all_grant_data : Boolean, optional

Invalidate CDN
Invalidate the CDN (distribution) cache for a certain file of files. This might take up to 15 minutes to be effective.
You can check for the invalidation status using check_invalidation_request.
Examples
>>> aa = s3utils.invalidate("test/myfolder/hoho/photo.JPG")
>>> print aa
('your distro id', u'your request id')
>>> invalidation_request_id = aa[1]
>>> bb = s3utils.check_invalidation_request(*aa)
>>> for inval in bb:
... print('Object: %s, ID: %s, Status: %s' % (inval, inval.id, inval.status))
