@stayradiated/s3-list-bucket-stream v2.0.0

@stayradiated/s3-list-bucket-stream

Node.js stream library that allows you to stream a list of objects from an S3 bucket.

This is a fork of lmammino/s3-list-bucket-stream.

The main changes are:

• Always outputs full metadata instead of path names
• Support for using the S3 Delimiter option
• Emits a prefix event for each of the CommonPrefixes in the response

Other changes include:

• Rewrite in pure typescript
• Use @stayradiated/pkg for lint, build and test configs

Install

Using npm:

npm install --save aws-sdk@2 @stayradiated/s3-list-bucket-stream

Note: In order to use this package you need to have the aws-sdk module installed (or any other library that allows you to instantiate an S3 client with the listBucketV2 method).

Usage

Here's a simple example that allows to list all the files in a bucket

const S3ListBucketStream = require('@stayadiated/s3-list-bucket-stream')

// create the S3 client
const AWS = require('aws-sdk')
const s3 = new AWS.S3()

// create the instance for the stream
const listBucketStream = new S3ListBucketStream(
  s3,
  'your-bucket-name',
  'path/to/files',
)

// listen to the 'data' event - this will start the stream
listBucketStream
  .on('data', console.log)

This will produce this output:

{ Key: 'path/to/files/file1',
  LastModified: 2019-02-08T11:11:19.000Z,
  ETag: '"7e97db1005fe07801a3e3737103ceab8"',
  Size: 49152,
  StorageClass: 'STANDARD' }
{ Key: 'path/to/files/file2',
  LastModified: 2019-02-07T11:11:19.000Z,
  ETag: '"6a97db1005fe07801a3e3737103ceab8"',
  Size: 39152,
  StorageClass: 'STANDARD' }
{ Key: 'path/to/files/file3',
  LastModified: 2019-02-05T11:11:19.000Z,
  ETag: '"b097db1005fe07801a3e3737103ceab8"',
  Size: 29152,
  StorageClass: 'STANDARD' }
...

Note: with this option enabled, the stream will automatically enable objectMode.

Programmatic API

Here you can find more details on how to configure the stream instances and what kind of events are available.

Constructor arguments

When creating a new instance of the stream these are the arguments you can pass as constructor arguments:

• s3 (Object): An S3 client from the AWS SDK (or any object that implements a compatible listObjectsV2 method)
• bucket (string): The name of the bucket to list
• [bucketPrefix] (string): A prefix to list only files with the given prefix (optional)
• [listObjectsV2args] (ListObjectsV2args): Extra arguments to be passed to the listObjectsV2 call in the S3 client (optional)

ListObjectsV2args

ListObjectsV2args is an object that can contain arbitrary s3.listObjectsV2 parameters like Delimiter, MaxKeys (set to 1000 by default), FetchOwner, RequestPayer or StartAfter.

These parameters will be propagated to every internal listObjectsV2 call to the S3 client provided at construction time.

Note: be careful not to specify values for Bucket, Prefix and ContinuationToken as these values will be managed by the internals according to the internal state and configuration of the given stream instance.

Events

The stream is a Readable stream instance, so it can fire all the common Readable stream events.

In addition to these events there some new events that will be fired by a given instance:

• page: fired when a new page is fetched through the S3 client. If listening to this event, your callback will receive an object containing the properties params (original parameters for the listObjectsV2 call) and data (the raw response to the listObjectsV2 call).
• stopped: fired when the readable buffer is full and the fetch from S3 is stopped
• restarted: fired when the fetch from S3 is restarted after a pause
• prefix: fired when a new prefix is found - this is useful for listing directories when using the { Delimiter: '/' } option.
