s3blob

Overview ¶

Package s3blob provides a blob implementation that uses S3. Use OpenBucket to construct a *blob.Bucket.

Open URLs ¶

For blob.Open URLs, s3blob registers for the scheme "s3"; URLs start with "s3://" like "s3://mybucket". blob.Open will create a new AWS session with the default options. If you want to use a different session or find details on the format of the URL, see URLOpener.

Escaping ¶

Go CDK supports all UTF-8 strings; to make this work with providers lacking full UTF-8 support, strings must be escaped (during writes) and unescaped (during reads). The following escapes are performed for s3blob:

• Blob keys: ASCII characters 0-31 are escaped to "__0x<hex>__". Additionally, the "/" in "../" and the trailing "/" in "//" are escaped in the same way.
• Metadata keys: Escaped using URL encoding, then additionally "@:=" are escaped using "__0x<hex>__". These characters were determined by experimentation.
• Metadata values: Escaped using URL encoding.

As ¶

s3blob exposes the following types for As:

• Bucket: *s3.S3
• Error: awserr.Error
• ListObject: s3.Object for objects, s3.CommonPrefix for "directories"
• ListOptions.BeforeList: *s3.ListObjectsV2Input
• Reader: s3.GetObjectOutput
• Attributes: s3.HeadObjectOutput
• WriterOptions.BeforeWrite: *s3manager.UploadInput
