将多个文件上载到Amazon S3

Question

I need help on how to upload multiple files on Amazon S3. So basically I have three input fields for files upload, two inputs will take 10-20 pictures and last input is only one for one image and upload them to Amazon S3 when a form is submitted.

The form that I'm using for uploading images:

I have a bucket and everything, what I need is some kind of solution to upload multiple images to Amazon S3.

I'm using PHP as my backend and for now, images are stored on hosting when a form is submitted. But I will have more then 150gb of images uploaded every month and I need S3 for hosting those images.

When I connect the form with Amazon S3 and try to upload more than one image, I get this message "POST requires exactly one file upload per request.".

Answer 1

S3 is highly scalable and distributed storage.

If you have those images locally in your machine you can simply use

aws s3 sync local_folder s3://bucket_name/

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/sync.html

cli takes cares of syncing the data.

You can also configure how much parallelism you want on the cli with the configuration settings.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/topic/s3-config.html

You can also do this programmatically if that is going to be a continuous data movement.

EDIT1:

Only one file can be uploaded from the UI at one time.

You can sequence them via javascript and upload one at a time.

If you want to take it to the backend you can do so,
