Recursive delete on S3

s3_delete_recurisve.py

import boto

def delete_recursive(bucketname, keyprefix):
    '''
    Recusively delete all keys with given prefix from the named bucket
    Stolen from http://stackoverflow.com/a/10055320/141084
    '''
    s3 = boto.connect_s3()
    bucket = s3.get_bucket(bucketname, validate=False)
    bucketListResultSet = bucket.list(prefix=keyprefix)
    return bucket.delete_keys([key.name for key in bucketListResultSet])

This appears to be a more robust extension of above approach, incorporating pagination requirements of boto3
