Hello All,

I’m trying to figure out a way to access a private AWS S3 bucket from a Chef recipe. Does anyone have any ideas on the standard way to do this?

Thank you for your help,

David

This exists, and works well for us: GitHub - adamsb6/s3_file: Pure Ruby Chef LWRP for pulling files from S3

you want to use s3 objects as a resource, or for other purposes? you can
use aws-sdk gem to query s3 directly from your recipe. also there are
several cookbooks like s3file, s3cmd that will allow you to download/upload
objects as a chef resource.

Hello,

Example of creating AWS S3 bucket in chef recipe:

aws = data_bag_item('aws', 'main')chef_gem 'aws-s3'
require 'aws/s3'

AWS::S3::Base.establish_connection!(:access_key_id =>
aws['aws_access_key_id'], :secret_access_key =>
aws['aws_secret_access_key'])AWS::S3::Bucket.create(node['example']['s3-bucket'])AWS::S3::Base.disconnect!

Read aws-s3 gem docs, to do other things with AWS S3.

Cheers.
Konstantin.
