Getting Started

Create a .droplet configuration directory

Copy configuration files to a .droplet directory and open the default profile for editing:

$ make
$ sudo make install
$ mkdir ~/.droplet
$ cp doc/default.profile doc/AWS_US-Standard_Storage.pricing ~/.droplet
$ edit ~/.droplet/default.profile

Set your access_key and secret_key. See configuration file for a list of Droplet configuration variables.

Test configuration with dplsh

dplsh uses the information from droplet to connect to the cloud.
Download dplsh here: https://github.com/scality/Droplet-sh.

$ dplsh
:/> la
bucket1
bucket2
...
:/> bucket1:
bucket1:/> mkdir foo
bucket1:/> cd foo
bucket1:/foo/> ls -l
bucket1:/foo/> put /etc/hosts
bucket1:/foo/> ls -l
.
hosts
bucket1:/foo/> ^D

You can create new profiles in the ~/.droplet directory (e.g., foo.profile). The profile is then selectable using the DPLPROFILE environment variable.

See https://github.com/scality/Droplet-sh/wiki for a list of dplsh commands.
