Configuration

Running application requires few configuration options.

AWS Region (required)

AWS service region ID can be provided using --aws-region argument or AWS_REGION environment variable.

Check Complete regions list at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#s3_region

Bucket Name (required)

AWS S3 bucket name can be provided using --aws-bucket argument or AWS_BUCKET environment variable.

Key Prefix (optional)

A prefix to be used with key, will be automatically added before requested service path, Can be provided usign --aws-key-prefix argument or AWS_KEY_PREFIX environment variable.

For example with --aws-key-prefix=folder1/, path http://<aws-webdav-host:port>/path/to/my/file.txt will be translated to folder1/path/to/my/file.txt s3 object key.

AWS Credentials (optional)

If S3 bucket requires authorization, credentials may be provided via:

Environment variables

• AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID for access key
• AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY for secret

Credentials File

AWS Credentials file may be used at default location (~/.aws/credentials) or custom location configured via AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE environment variable.

Profile may be optionally configured using AWS_PROFILE environment variable. default profile is used by default.

IAM instance profile

Will only work if running on an EC2 instance with an instance profile/role.

(May not work with docker image, plase let me know if it does).

Running with Docker

There is an automated docker build configured for this repo: lostintime/aws-s3-webdav.

Run service container

docker run --read-only --rm \
    -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \
    -v ~/.aws/credentials:/.aws/credentials \
    -e "AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE=/.aws/credentials" \
    -e "AWS_PROFILE=default" \
    -e "AWS_REGION=eu-central-1" \
    -e "AWS_BUCKET=my-bucket" \
    -e "AWS_KEY_PREFIX=tmp/" \
    lostintime/aws-s3-webdav:0.1.0

Limitations

HTTPS

Application now uses http protocol for communication with AWS endpoint, ssl sessions seems to leak some memory when using https, and I didn't figure out how to fix it yet.

Multipart Uploads

To upload files application uses AWS Mulipart Upload, which in case of failures in the middle of the upload will leave parts stored in S3, and you will be charged for patrs uploaded, so it's recommended to configure Bucket Lifecycle Policy.
