I am trying to download a file (about 2T) to my local server from s3 such like:
aws s3 cp s3://outputs/star_output.tar.gz ./ --profile abcd --endpoint-url=https://abc.edu
It seems the downloadeing finished with a file like star_output.tar.gz.9AB04cEd but ended up with a failure:
download failed: s3://outputs/star_output.tar.gz to ./ local variable 'current_index' referenced before assignment
And the file star_output.tar.gz.9AB04cEd was also automatically deleted.
I tried a small text file and it downloaded no issue. Is this related to the size of the file (too big)?
Anyone knows the possible reason?
My first attempt was using the console and it worked. I have a new zip file that successfully uploaded to my bucket in S3. I can list the bucket and see both files there but when I try to use CLI to create the Lambda function it returns "Error parsing parameter '--zip-file': Unable to load paramfile"..." No such file or directory:"
I expect from the documentation that "fileb://path/to/file.zip" implies that the bucket name be included but I am unsure if the region URL is needed. I tried it with and without the region URL with the same results.
Again, I am able to use these file if I create the Lambda using the console, but not CLI. What am I missing?
[royce#localhost ~]$ aws s3 ls s3://uploads.lai
2017-08-18 10:27:48 60383836 userpermission-1.zip
2017-08-31 07:43:50 60389082 userpermission-4.zip
2017-08-18 14:15:43 1171 userpermission.db
[royce#localhost ~]$ aws lambda create-function --function-name awstest01 --zip-file "fileb://uploads.lai/userpermission-4.zip" --runtime java8 --role execution-role-arn --handler app.handler
Error parsing parameter '--zip-file': Unable to load paramfile fileb://uploads.lai/userpermission-4.zip: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'uploads.lai/userpermission-4.zip'
The --zip-file flag is if you are uploading your function from a local zip file.
If you are using S3, the CLI the command should be something along the lines of aws create function --code "S3Bucket=string,S3Key=string,S3ObjectVersion=string"
You may check the reference here:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/lambda/create-function.html
When I log to my S3 console I am unable to download multiple selected files (the WebUI allows downloads only when one file is selected):
https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3
Is this something that can be changed in the user policy or is it a limitation of Amazon?
It is not possible through the AWS Console web user interface.
But it's a very simple task if you install AWS CLI.
You can check the installation and configuration steps on Installing in the AWS Command Line Interface
After that you go to the command line:
aws s3 cp --recursive s3://<bucket>/<folder> <local_folder>
This will copy all the files from given S3 path to your given local path.
Selecting a bunch of files and clicking Actions->Open opened each in a browser tab, and they immediately started to download (6 at a time).
If you use AWS CLI, you can use the exclude along with --include and --recursive flags to accomplish this
aws s3 cp s3://path/to/bucket/ . --recursive --exclude "*" --include "things_you_want"
Eg.
--exclude "*" --include "*.txt"
will download all files with .txt extension. More details - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/
I believe it is a limitation of the AWS console web interface, having tried (and failed) to do this myself.
Alternatively, perhaps use a 3rd party S3 browser client such as http://s3browser.com/
If you have Visual Studio with the AWS Explorer extension installed, you can also browse to Amazon S3 (step 1), select your bucket (step 2), select al the files you want to download (step 3) and right click to download them all (step 4).
The S3 service has no meaningful limits on simultaneous downloads (easily several hundred downloads at a time are possible) and there is no policy setting related to this... but the S3 console only allows you to select one file for downloading at a time.
Once the download starts, you can start another and another, as many as your browser will let you attempt simultaneously.
In case someone is still looking for an S3 browser and downloader I have just tried Fillezilla Pro (it's a paid version). It worked great.
I created a connection to S3 with Access key and secret key set up via IAM. Connection was instant and downloading of all folders and files was fast.
Using AWS CLI, I ran all the downloads in the background using "&" and then waited on all the pids to complete. It was amazingly fast. Apparently the "aws s3 cp" knows to limit the number of concurrent connections because it only ran 100 at a time.
aws --profile $awsProfile s3 cp "$s3path" "$tofile" &
pids[${npids}]=$! ## save the spawned pid
let "npids=npids+1"
followed by
echo "waiting on $npids downloads"
for pid in ${pids[*]}; do
echo $pid
wait $pid
done
I downloaded 1500+ files (72,000 bytes) in about a minute
I wrote a simple shell script to download NOT JUST all files but also all versions of every file from a specific folder under AWS s3 bucket. Here it is & you may find it useful
# Script generates the version info file for all the
# content under a particular bucket and then parses
# the file to grab the versionId for each of the versions
# and finally generates a fully qualified http url for
# the different versioned files and use that to download
# the content.
s3region="s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com"
bucket="your_bucket_name"
# note the location has no forward slash at beginning or at end
location="data/that/you/want/to/download"
# file names were like ABB-quarterly-results.csv, AVANTIFEED--quarterly-results.csv
fileNamePattern="-quarterly-results.csv"
# AWS CLI command to get version info
content="$(aws s3api list-object-versions --bucket $bucket --prefix "$location/")"
#save the file locally, if you want
echo "$content" >> version-info.json
versions=$(echo "$content" | grep -ir VersionId | awk -F ":" '{gsub(/"/, "", $3);gsub(/,/, "", $3);gsub(/ /, "", $3);print $3 }')
for version in $versions
do
echo ############### $fileId ###################
#echo $version
url="https://$s3region/$bucket/$location/$fileId$fileNamePattern?versionId=$version"
echo $url
content="$(curl -s "$url")"
echo "$content" >> $fileId$fileNamePattern-$version.csv
echo ############### $i ###################
done
Also you could use the --include "filename" many times in a single command with each time including a different filename within the double quotes, e.g.
aws s3 mycommand --include "file1" --include "file2"
It will save your time rather than repeating the command to download one file at a time.
Also if you are running Windows(tm), WinSCP now allows drag and drop of a selection of multiple files. Including sub-folders.
Many enterprise workstations will have WinSCP installed for editing files on servers by means of SSH.
I am not affiliated, I simply think this was really worth doing.
In my case Aur's didn't work and if you're looking for a quick solution to download all files in a folder just using the browser, you can try entering this snippet in your dev console:
(function() {
const rows = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.fix-width-table tbody tr'));
const downloadButton = document.querySelector('[data-e2e-id="button-download"]');
const timeBetweenClicks = 500;
function downloadFiles(remaining) {
if (!remaining.length) {
return
}
const row = remaining[0];
row.click();
downloadButton.click();
setTimeout(() => {
downloadFiles(remaining.slice(1));
}, timeBetweenClicks)
}
downloadFiles(rows)
}())
I have done, by creating shell script using aws cli (i.e : example.sh)
#!/bin/bash
aws s3 cp s3://s3-bucket-path/example1.pdf LocalPath/Download/example1.pdf
aws s3 cp s3://s3-bucket-path/example2.pdf LocalPath/Download/example2.pdf
give executable rights to example.sh (i.e sudo chmod 777 example.sh)
then run your shell script ./example.sh
I think simplest way to download or upload files is to use aws s3 sync command. You can also use it to sync two s3 buckets in same time.
aws s3 sync <LocalPath> <S3Uri> or <S3Uri> <LocalPath> or <S3Uri> <S3Uri>
# Download file(s)
aws s3 sync s3://<bucket_name>/<file_or_directory_path> .
# Upload file(s)
aws s3 sync . s3://<bucket_name>/<file_or_directory_path>
# Sync two buckets
aws s3 sync s3://<1st_s3_path> s3://<2nd_s3_path>
What I usually do is mount the s3 bucket (with s3fs) in a linux machine and zip the files I need into one, then I just download that file from any pc/browser.
# mount bucket in file system
/usr/bin/s3fs s3-bucket -o use_cache=/tmp -o allow_other -o uid=1000 -o mp_umask=002 -o multireq_max=5 /mnt/local-s3-bucket-mount
# zip files into one
cd /mnt/local-s3-bucket-mount
zip all-processed-files.zip *.jpg
import os
import boto3
import json
s3 = boto3.resource('s3', aws_access_key_id="AKIAxxxxxxxxxxxxJWB",
aws_secret_access_key="LV0+vsaxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxry0/LjxZkN")
my_bucket = s3.Bucket('s3testing')
# download file into current directory
for s3_object in my_bucket.objects.all():
# Need to split s3_object.key into path and file name, else it will give error file not found.
path, filename = os.path.split(s3_object.key)
my_bucket.download_file(s3_object.key, filename)
i am working with s3 bucket. i need to copy an image from my amazon server to s3 bucket. any idea how can i do it? i saw some sample codes but i dont know how to use it.
if (S3::copyObject($sourceBucket, $sourceFile, $destinationBucket, $destinationFile, S3::ACL_PRIVATE)) {
echo "Copied file";
} else {
echo "Failed to copy file";
}
it seems that this code is used only to bucket but not for the server?
thanks for help.
Copy between S3 Buckets
AWS released a command line interface for copying between buckets.
http://aws.amazon.com/cli/
$ aws s3 sync s3://mybucket-src s3://mybucket-target --exclude *.tmp
..
This will copy from one target bucket to another bucket.
I have no tested this, but I believe that this will operate in series, by downloading the files to your system and then uploading to the bucket.
See the documentation here : S3 CLI Documentation
I've used s3cmd for several years, and it's been very reliable. If you're using Ubuntu it's available with:
apt-get install s3cmd
You can also use one of the SDKs to develop your own tool.
I have the s3cmd command line tool for linux installed. It works fine to put files in a bucket. However, I want to move a file into a 'folder'. I know that folders aren't natively supported by S3, but my Cyberduck GUI tool converts them nicely for me to view my backups.
For instance, I have a file in the root of the bucket, called 'test.mov' that I want to move to the 'idea' folder. I am trying this:
s3cmd mv s3://mybucket/test.mov s3://mybucket/idea/test.mov
but I get strange errors like:
WARNING: Retrying failed request: /idea/test.mov (timed out)
WARNING: Waiting 3 sec...
I also tried quotes, but that didn't help either:
s3cmd mv 's3://mybucket/test.mov' 's3://mybucket/idea/test.mov'
Neither did just the folder name
s3cmd mv 's3://mybucket/test.mov' 's3://mybucket/idea/'
Is there a way within having to delete and reput this 3GB file?
Update: Just FYI, I can put new files directly into a folder like this:
s3cmd put test2.mov s3://mybucket/idea/test2.mov
But still don't know how to move them around....
To move/copy from one bucket to another or the same bucket I use s3cmd tool and works fine. For instance:
s3cmd cp --r s3://bucket1/directory1 s3://bucket2/directory1
s3cmd mv --recursive s3://bucket1/directory1 s3://bucket2/directory1
Probably your file is quite big, try increasing socket_timeout s3cmd configuration setting
http://sumanrs.wordpress.com/2013/03/19/s3cmd-timeout-problems-moving-large-files-on-s3-250mb/
Remove the ' signs. Your code should be:
s3cmd mv s3://mybucket/test.mov s3://mybucket/idea/test.mov
Also try what are the permissions of your bucket - for your username you should have all the permissions.
Also try to connect CloudFront to your bucket. I know it doesn' make sense but I have similar problem to bucket which do not have cloudfront instance clonnected to it.
