Uploading to S3 in 18 lines of Shell (used to upload builds for http://soltrader.net)

s3.sh

# You don't need Fog in Ruby or some other library to upload to S3 -- shell works perfectly fine
# This is how I upload my new Sol Trader builds (http://soltrader.net)
# Based on a modified script from here: http://tmont.com/blargh/2014/1/uploading-to-s3-in-bash

S3KEY="my aws key"
S3SECRET="my aws secret" # pass these in

function putS3
{
  path=$1
  file=$2
  aws_path=$3
  bucket='my-aws-bucket'
  date=$(date +"%a, %d %b %Y %T %z")
  acl="x-amz-acl:public-read"
  content_type='application/x-compressed-tar'
  string="PUT\n\n$content_type\n$date\n$acl\n/$bucket$aws_path$file"
  signature=$(echo -en "${string}" | openssl sha1 -hmac "${S3SECRET}" -binary | base64)
  curl -X PUT -T "$path/$file" \
    -H "Host: $bucket.s3.amazonaws.com" \
    -H "Date: $date" \
    -H "Content-Type: $content_type" \
    -H "$acl" \
    -H "Authorization: AWS ${S3KEY}:$signature" \
    "https://$bucket.s3.amazonaws.com$aws_path$file"
}

for file in "$path"/*; do
  putS3 "$path" "${file##*/}" "/path/on/s3/to/files/"
done

Stoked to come across this. We are using it to upload files from AIX servers, which doesn't support (read: admins won't install) the AWS cli and related stuff. Thanks!

My company is using rook for s3 storage. So I have different base URL for my bucket. "http://abc.rook.com" like this.
so if I create a new bucket with let say "piyush" and put some object inside "test" then my URL becomes like this "http://abc.rook.com/piyush/test/abc.txt". I am able to put object using s3api but not with above curl script.
Please suggest what change I need to do.

I have the same problem

The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided

How to fix that?

For those with root access, just install awscli and be happy doing that in only one line https://aws.amazon.com/getting-started/hands-on/backup-to-s3-cli/
