S3Tree allows you to access files stored on Amazon AWS S3 as a simple directory tree. You can traverse the tree and read files as easily as you os.walk.

>>> import s3tree
>>> s3tree.config.aws_access_key_id = '<AWS-ACCESS-KEY>'
>>> s3tree.config.aws_secret_access_key = '<AWS-SECRET-KEY>'
>>> tree = s3tree.S3Tree(bucket_name='my-awesome-bucket')
>>> len(tree)
77
>>> for obj in tree: print(obj.name)
...
admin
assets
...
index.js

Installation

To install S3Tree, use pipenv (or pip):

$ pipenv install s3tree

Documentation

Using AWS credentials

The s3tree module exposes a config object that can be used to set the AWS credentials you want to use globally. You should ideally do this before you make any instances of S3Tree.

>>> import s3tree
>>> s3tree.config.aws_access_key_id = '<AWS-ACCESS-KEY>'
>>> s3tree.config.aws_secret_access_key = '<AWS-SECRET-KEY>'

Credentials can also be passed while creating an S3Tree instance:

>>> tree = s3tree.S3Tree('dummy-bucket', aws_access_key_id='<AWS-ACCESS-KEY>', aws_secret_access_key='<AWS-SECRET-KEY>')

Passing the credentials during instance creation overrides the global config.

Fetching a tree

The S3Tree object represents a tree at any given path. The path can be specified while creating a new tree. If no path, or / is passed, the root if the bucket is fetched.

>>> tree = s3tree.S3Tree(bucket_name='dummy')  # tree at the root of the bucket `dummy`
>>> tree = s3tree.S3Tree(bucket_name='dummy', path='/admin/css')  # tree under the path `/admin/css`
>>> tree = s3tree.S3Tree(bucket_name='dummy', path='admin/css')  # this works too.

The tree object above is an iterable that contains all files and directories in this tree. len(tree) gives you the total size of this tree. If you want to access files and directories separately:

>>> tree.directories  # iterable for all the directories in the tree
>>> tree.files  # iterable for all the files in the tree

The S3Tree object can be easily represented as JSON:

>>> tree.as_json

The Directory object

Each element in tree.directories is a Directory object. This has attributes that help you display the directory in a human-friendly manner, and methods to fetch the tree under itself.

>>> mydir = tree.directories[0]
>>> mydir.name  # the name of this directory
css
>>> mydir.path  # the full path of this directory
/admin/css
>>> child_tree = mydir.get_tree()  # retrieve and store the tree under `mydir` to `child_tree`
>>> json_data = mydir.as_json  # JSON representation of this directory

The File object

Each element in tree.files is a File object, which has attributes and methods to display properties and read the file.

>>> myfile = tree.files[0]
>>> myfile.name  # name of this file
index.js
>>> myfile.size  # human-readable size of this file
4 KB
>>> contents = myfile.read()  # reads the file and stores its contents in `contents`
>>> json_data = myfile.as_json  # JSON representation of this file obj
