AWS CLI S3 is a powerful command line interface for managing your AWS resources. You can use it to upload and download files from S3, create and delete buckets, and list and retrieve objects in buckets.
To transfer files from AWS to your local computer using the AWS CLI S3, follow these steps:
1. Use the AWS s3 cp command to copy the files you want to transfer from S3 to your local computer.
For example, to copy the file myfile.txt from the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account to your local computer, use the following command:
AWS s3 cp myfile.txt mybucket
2. Use the AWS s3 put command to upload the files you copied to your local computer to S3.
For example, to upload the file myfile.txt from your local computer to the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account, use the following command:
AWS s3 put myfile.txt mybucket
3. Use the AWS s3 rm command to delete the files you uploaded to S3.
For example, to delete the file myfile.txt from the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account, use the following command:
AWS s3 rm myfile.txt
4. Use the AWS s3 ls command to list the files in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account.
5. Use the AWS s3 stat command to view the statuses of the files in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account.
6. Use the AWS s3 get command to retrieve the contents of the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account.
For example, to retrieve the contents of the myfile.txt file in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account, use the following command:
AWS s3 get myfile.txt
7. Use the AWS s3 put-object command to create a new file in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account.
For example, to create a new file myfile2.txt in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account, use the following command:
AWS s3 put-object myfile.txt myfile2.txt
8. Use the AWS s3 ls-objects command to list the files in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account and the contents of the myfile2.txt file.
9. Use the AWS s3 rm-object command to delete the myfile2.txt file in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account.
10. Use the AWS s3 ls-objects-multi command to list the files in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account and the contents of any files that have been put into the myfile2.
11. Use the AWS s3 get-object-sync command to synchronize the contents of the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account with the contents of the myfile.txt file on your local computer.
12. Use the AWS s3 put-object-copy-from-bucket command to copy the contents of the myfile.txt file from the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account to the myfile2.txt file in the mybucket on your local computer.
13. Use the AWS s3 rm-object-sync command to delete the myfile2.txt file in the mybucket on the myaccount instance in the AWS account.
