trying to figure AWS S3 API and failing miserably...
I currently got a bucket which consist lots of videos.
I need to request all the videos as an object, that will have the video meta-data which I set once uploading, and the link to share the video.
Problem is I'm getting the object without any of the above...
What Iv'e got so far -
AWS.config.update({accessKeyId: 'id', secretAccessKey: 'key', region: 'eu-
west-1'});
var s3 = new AWS.S3();
var params = {
Bucket: 'Bucket-name',
Delimiter: '/',
Prefix: 'resource/folder-with-videos/'
}
s3.listObjects(params, function (err, data) {
if(err)throw err;
console.log(data);
});
Thanks for reading :)
UPDATE - found that when using getObject and adding ExposeHeader to the CORS setting I can indeed get the metadata I set. problem is getObject only works on a specific Object (video in my case).
any Idea how I can get all the object like listObject and have values of each object like I do on getObject?
Only solution I can think of is doing listObject to get a list of all the objects, and then by this result to do for each object an getObject ajax?... rip UX thanks :)
A couple of things to sort out first.
As per the documentation, http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/S3.html#listObjects-property listObjects API returns exactly what is mentioned in the callback parameters. Using a delimiter causes the S3 to list objects only one level below the prefix given. It won't traverse all objects recursively.
In order to get the URL, you can use http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/S3.html#getSignedUrl-property. I am not really sure what you meant by meta-data.
