Sample python script to work with Amazon S3.

s3-client - A Sample Python Script for Managing S3

s3-client is a Python command-line tool for interacting with AWS S3 and other S3-compatible services such as MinIO or Ceph. It supports common operations such as listing buckets, uploading, downloading, and managing objects.

Installation

Install from PyPI:

pip install s3-client

Or, clone the repository and install from source in development mode:

git clone https://github.com/thobiast/s3_client.git
cd s3_client
pip install -e .

You can also use pipx to install it in an isolated environment:

pipx install -e .

Configuration

s3-client authenticates using either environment variables or an AWS profile.

Option 1: Environment variables

Set these variables in your shell:

• AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: Specifies an AWS access key associated with an IAM user or role.
• AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: Specifies the secret key associated with the access key. This is essentially the "password" for the access key.

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your-access-key>
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your-secret-key>
s3-client listbuckets

Option 2: AWS profiles

Use the '--profile' option to specify the AWS profile configured in your AWS credentials file (usually located at '~/.aws/credentials').

# Example using a profile named 'dev'
s3-client --profile dev listbuckets

You may also specify:

• --endpoint: S3-compatible endpoint (e.g., MinIO, Ceph, or custom URL)
• --region: AWS region

Usage:

$ s3-client --help
usage: s3-client [-h] [-d] [-e ENDPOINT] [-r REGION_NAME] [--profile AWS_PROFILE]
                 [--checksum-policy {when_supported,when_required}]
                 {createbucket,listbuckets,deletebucket,listobj,deleteobj,metadataobj,upload,download}
                 ...

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -d, --debug           debug flag

  --profile AWS_PROFILE
                        AWS profile to use
  --checksum-policy {when_supported,when_required}
                        Apply checksum setting to both request and response. Valid:
                        when_supported, when_required. (default: None)

Commands:
  {createbucket,listbuckets,deletebucket,listobj,deleteobj,metadataobj,upload,download}
    createbucket        Create a new bucket
    listbuckets         List all buckets
    deletebucket        Delete an empty S3 bucket
    listobj             List objects in a bucket
    deleteobj           Delete object in a bucket
    metadataobj         List object metadata
    upload              Upload files to bucket
    download            Download files from bucket

    Example of use:
        s3-client listbuckets
        s3-client --profile dev listbuckets
        s3-client -r us-east-1 listbuckets
        s3-client -e https://s3.amazonaws.com listobj my_bucket -t
        s3-client -e https://s3.amazonaws.com upload my_bucket -f file1
        s3-client -e https://s3.amazonaws.com upload my_bucket -d mydir

You can use the --help option with any command to view its help message.

$ s3-client listobj -h
usage: s3-client listobj [-h] [-l LIMIT] [-t] [-p PREFIX] [-v] bucket

positional arguments:
  bucket                Bucket Name

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -l LIMIT, --limit LIMIT
                        Limit the number of objects returned. (default: None)
  -t, --table           Show output as table
  -p PREFIX, --prefix PREFIX
                        Only objects with specific prefix
  -v, --versions        Show all object versions

Below are a few common usage examples.
