services wanted Need Developer to help script uploading files to Amazon S3

[crayfish]

Position Title: Freelance Filemaker Developer

 

Description of Duties: Our small music nonprofit is considering switching to Amazon S3 to host our images and audio.  Currently we're using a normal web host that has FTP and use FTPeek to upload files.  However, it doesn't look like that's an option of S3.  We have the WebAssistant plugin and it looks like we might be able to use POST to upload files?  I'm not familiar with using POST and the resources I've found are a little beyond me.  If this is a viable option or is there an alternative to Web Assistant that would work?

I have created a scriptmaster function that uploads a file to an s3 bucket and returns a signed url.  If you're interested here is the code:

RegisterGroovy( "UploadToS3( keyAccess ; keySecret ; bucket ; filePath ; daystoexpire )" ; "import org.jets3t.service.impl.rest.httpclient.RestS3Service¶
import org.jets3t.service.model.S3Bucket¶
import org.jets3t.service.model.S3Object¶
import org.jets3t.service.security.AWSCredentials¶

¶
accessKey = keyAccess¶
secretKey = keySecret¶
bucketName = bucket¶
uploadFile = filePath¶
int expiryDays = Integer.parseInt(daystoexpire)¶
¶
credentials = new AWSCredentials(accessKey, secretKey)¶
service = new RestS3Service(credentials)¶
bucket = new S3Bucket(bucketName)¶
file = new File(uploadFile)¶
fileObject = new S3Object(file)¶
fileObject.key = fileObject.getKey()¶
service.putObject(bucket, fileObject)¶
expiryTime = new Date() + expiryDays¶
link = service.createSignedGetUrl(bucket.name, fileObject.key, expiryTime)¶
return link" )

You'll need the jets3t jar from amazon.
