Provision VM for S3 access

provision_s3.sh

# replace IP with the ip of your newly created droplet
ssh root@IP

# this will install utilities for mounting storage objects as FUSE
apt install s3fs

# we now need to provide credentials (access key we created earlier)
# replace KEY and SECRET with your own credentials but leave the colon between them
# we also need to set proper permissions
echo "KEY:SECRET" > .passwd-s3fs
chmod 600 .passwd-s3fs

# now we mount space to our machine
# replace UNIQUE-NAME with the name you choose earlier
# if you choose different region for your space be careful about -ourl option (ams3)
s3fs UNIQUE-NAME /mnt/ -ourl=https://ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com -ouse_cache=/tmp

# now we try to create a file
# once you mount it may take a couple of seconds to retrieve data
echo "Hello cruel world" > /mnt/hello.txt
