s3thorp

Synchronisation of files with S3 using the hash of the file contents.

Originally based on Alex Kudlick's aws-s3-sync-by-hash.

The normal aws s3 sync ... command only uses the time stamp of files to decide what files need to be copied. This utility looks at the md5 hash of the file contents.

Usage

  s3thorp
  Usage: s3thorp [options]

    -s, --source <value>  Source directory to sync to S3
    -b, --bucket <value>  S3 bucket name
    -p, --prefix <value>  Prefix within the S3 Bucket
    -i, --include <value> Include matching paths
    -x, --exclude <value> Exclude matching paths
    -v, --verbose <value> Verbosity level (1-5)

The --include and --exclude parameters can be used more than once.

Behaviour

When considering a local file, the following table governs what should happen:

# local file remote key hash of same key hash of other keys action
1 exists exists matches - do nothing
2 exists is missing - matches copy from other key
3 exists is missing - no matches upload
4 exists exists no match matches copy from other key
5 exists exists no match no matches upload
6 is missing exists - - delete
