s3-stream-upload

A writable stream which uploads to Amazon S3 using the multipart file upload API.

Inspired by s3-upload-stream.

Install

npm install s3-stream-upload

Usage

var S3StreamUpload = require("s3-stream-upload");

var uploader = S3StreamUploader({
  accessKeyId: process.env.S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
  secretAccessKey: process.env.S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
  Bucket: process.env.S3_BUCKET_NAME
});

var key = "file.mp3";

fs.readFileStream(__dirname + "/file.mp3")
  .pipe(uploader({ Key: key }))
  .on("error", function (err) {
    console.error(err);
  })
  .on("finish", function () {
    console.log("File uploaded!");
  });

API

• S3StreamUploader(s3Config) Takes configuration (same options as aws-sdk's S3 constructor) and returns a new stream uploader function that creates streams.
• uploader(config) Creates and returns a WritableStream for uploading to S3. Takes a config object, which takes the same options as S3.createMultipartUpload, and will use the Bucket property of the creation if not specified in config. Additional, non-S3 config options may be set, listed below:
  • concurrent How many chunks can be sent to S3 concurrently. 1 by default.

Testing

To run unit tests, run:

npm test

For integration tests on actually uploading to S3, define a few environment variables (S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID, S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, and S3_BUCKET_NAME) and run the following:

npm run integration
