Data to Amazon S3 bucket

[Rob Lindsey]

Has anyone been able to get the engine or a script using TCL outside the engine to put a data message or data file to an Amazon S3 bucket.  I know that there is an S3 tcllib library but my brain is just not wrapping its way around it.

Looking for a small example if anyone is willing to share.

TIA

Would this help?

I will have to dig into a bit more but that example depends upon a DLL to be loaded.
<pre id=”exCode”> load ./chilkat.dll
# This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

So it will at least give me an idea.
Thanks

Yeah I saw where the license is almost $300 but figured you could get some ideas and use Cloverleaf web functions

We installed AWS CLI on our CentOS 7 server.
<code>yum install -y awscli</code>

we then call it from a Tcl script…
<code>exec aws s3 cp test.txt s3://bucket-name/directory/</code>

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions…

Boris,

Thanks for the info.  I was not trying to avoid it but not really wanting to install the AWS S3 CLI on the Cloverleaf servers.  Did not know how it would interact.  So it seems that it is self contained and you have not seen any issues.

I think I am going to go down this route starting tomorrow.

Thanks

Rob
