Feature Request: Static Remote Directory Naming for Latest Version

Open samterfa opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

First, I really like this package. It's so, so helpful, thank you!

I specifically pin data to an AWS S3 bucket. I would like to be able to provide the external file path of my pinned data to other software and have that file path in S3 be static. This may be possible already and I missed it, but to my knowledge, the enclosing directory is a datetime-based format which will change with each new version of the data. board_url is really great but to my knowledge doesn't accept credentials for accessing a private bucket.

If instead the latest or current version of the pinned object were predictably in an enclosing folder named "current_version" or "latest" or something like that, then I could provide that external file path to other software. There could also be some other creative solution that I'm not thinking of.

Thank you for the terrific package!
