I am trying to upload an object to AWS S3 using golang sdk without needing to create a file in my system (trying to upload only the string). But I am having difficulties to accomplish that. Can anybody give me an example of how can I upload to AWS S3 without needing to create a file?
AWS Example of how to upload a file:
// Creates a S3 Bucket in the region configured in the shared config
// or AWS_REGION environment variable.
//
// Usage:
// go run s3_upload_object.go BUCKET_NAME FILENAME
func main() {
if len(os.Args) != 3 {
exitErrorf("bucket and file name required
Usage: %s bucket_name filename",
os.Args[0])
}
bucket := os.Args[1]
filename := os.Args[2]
file, err := os.Open(filename)
if err != nil {
exitErrorf("Unable to open file %q, %v", err)
}
defer file.Close()
// Initialize a session in us-west-2 that the SDK will use to load
// credentials from the shared credentials file ~/.aws/credentials.
sess, err := session.NewSession(&aws.Config{
Region: aws.String("us-west-2")},
)
// Setup the S3 Upload Manager. Also see the SDK doc for the Upload Manager
// for more information on configuring part size, and concurrency.
//
// http://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/service/s3/s3manager/#NewUploader
uploader := s3manager.NewUploader(sess)
// Upload the file's body to S3 bucket as an object with the key being the
// same as the filename.
_, err = uploader.Upload(&s3manager.UploadInput{
Bucket: aws.String(bucket),
// Can also use the `filepath` standard library package to modify the
// filename as need for an S3 object key. Such as turning absolute path
// to a relative path.
Key: aws.String(filename),
// The file to be uploaded. io.ReadSeeker is preferred as the Uploader
// will be able to optimize memory when uploading large content. io.Reader
// is supported, but will require buffering of the reader's bytes for
// each part.
Body: file,
})
if err != nil {
// Print the error and exit.
exitErrorf("Unable to upload %q to %q, %v", filename, bucket, err)
}
fmt.Printf("Successfully uploaded %q to %q
", filename, bucket)
}
I already tried to create the file programmatically but it is creating the file on my system and then uploading it to S3.
