Thanks to Neil Gee for his tutorial on s3cmd. S3cmd del s3://mybucket/my-file-to-delete.png

#Mac os zip command line aws manual#

This is beyond the scope of the question but seems worth mentioning: s3cmd can do other things like put data into the bucket (and make it public with the -P flag), delete files, and show the manual for more information: s3cmd -P put ~/Desktop/my-file.png s3://mybucket/ Listing the contents of the remote bucket: s3cmd ls s3://bml-data/ Now for the exciting bit: downloading my file to desktop! s3cmd get s3://bml-data/churn-bigml-80.csv ~/Desktop Be warned - the gpg_passphrase that you use is stored in a local plain-text configuration file! Use:

#Mac os zip command line aws install#

If you want to use HTTPS then you can install gpg with brew, and set a few more configuration options at this point. s3cmd -configureĬonfiguration involves specifying your access / secret key pair, and a few other details (I used defaults for everything). This is free, but you need to sign up for it here. Installation and Setup brew install s3cmdĬonfiguring the s3cmd requires that you have an amazon s3 account.

It lets you browse Amazon S3 buckets (even when you don't own them).

It lets you download from Amazon S3 to your local machine.

It works on Mac (with the homebrew package manager).

There's a neat tool called s3cmd that will do this. Again, exploring google and SO tells me that there are libraries for this, but a more direct approach would be useful. If anyone knows of a way to remotely explore the contents of a specific S3 bucket, then that would be very useful.

the solution to the first question will allow me to check this hunch but in an ugly way. My automatic approach would be to try and curl / open the expected file. The nature of the file (80% of a particular data-set) makes me suspect that there may be a churn-bigml-20.csv file hiding somewhere out there. Is there any good way to see the contents of an Amazon E3 bucket (that I don't own)? I use Mac and am a big fan of homebrew, so the perfect solution (for me) would work on this system. but it would be really nice to open or download the file more directly. Some googling tells me that there are a number of python and Scala libraries designed for S3 access. If the bucket owner has granted public permissions for ListBucket, then you can list the contents of the bucket, eg: aws s3 ls s3://bml-data. The AWS Command Line Interface is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. The tutorial opens it with BigML, but I want to download the data for myself. The AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) is a unified tool to manage AWS services, including accessing data stored in Amazon S3. It is a simple csv file, but I can't open it using my web browser, or with curl. I'm loosely following an online tutorial where the author links to the following URL: s3://bml-data/churn-bigml-80.csv Is there a simple way to access a data file stored on Amazon S3 directly from the command line?
