  • Mount Amazon s3 on Linux

    To mount Amazon S3 bucket as a filesystem on linux, you can use s3fs.

    https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse

    To install s3fs on Ubuntu/Debian, run

    apt install s3fs

    To mount an s3 buclet, create a password file with your AWS secret key and 

    echo ACCESS_KEY_ID:SECRET_ACCESS_KEY > ${HOME}/.passwd-s3fs
chmod 600 ${HOME}/.passwd-s3fs

    Then run

    s3fs sokmount /home/boby/ -o passwd_file=${HOME}/.passwd-s3fs -o dbglevel=info -f -o curldbg -o endpoint=ap-southeast-1 -o url="https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com"

    In above command replace

    sokmount = bucket name
    /home/boby/ = your mount point
    ap-southeast-1 = AWS region where bucket is created.
