Node.js---Amazon-S3

Node.js---Amazon-S3 copied to clipboard

Dallin Dyer

A simple S3 library written because the other implementation doesn't meet needs and is outdated.

What this library is good for:

Send files of any size (although S3 is currently limited at 5 gigs)
	- file upload and downloads are streamed with a progress event fired during writes.

Minimal memory footprint and very efficient 
	- Streams files from disk to socket -- using nodes drain/pause/resume to only stream what socket/stream can take 

Uses net sockets on PUT requests to support 100 Continue (especially usefull for large files) 
	- the body is only sent after amazon approves the signed header

Creats MD5 of content (optional)
	- ensure your data isn't corrupted during transmission

Supports amazons new REDUCED_REDUNDANCY storage (cheaper but less reliable)
	- see unit tests for examples

Supports specifying acl
	- see unit tests for examples

Examples: coming soon: check out / run unit tests for examples.
