aws-s3-modern v2.0.0

AWS S3 Modern

A thin wrapper on top of the official AWS S3 JavaScript SDK providing a simpler interface for uploading files to and getting filenames from a certain bucket on S3.

Only designed to be used on Node.js, not in the browser.

Configuration and initialization

AWS access key ID and secret should be defined in the environment as: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.

The library exports a class that should be initialized with at least the bucket name and optionally the region.

import S3 from 'aws-s3-modern';

const s3 = new S3('bucket_name', 'eu-central-1');

Usage

The exported class has three public functions.

s3.upload(buffer, filename, contentType)

Returns a Promise that resolves with the URL to the uploaded resource as a string, or rejects in case of an error.

s3.getUrl(filename)

Returns a Promise that always resolves with either null (in case there is no such file) or with the URL to the uploaded resource as a string.

s3.upsert(buffer, filename, contentType)

Attempt to fetch the URL for the file with filename, and in case it's not found, uploads the file and returns the URL to it. Returns a Promise that resolves with the URL to the uploaded resource as a string, or rejects in case of an error.
