s3up is a command line tool to store static content in Amazon S3 following the best practices of YSlow. Specifically, it's for users who want to use S3 as a content delivery network for their images, style sheets, JavaScript, etc.
For each file it uploads, s3up sets a far future expiration date, gzips the content, and versions the file by combining the filename with a timestamp. Each of these actions are optional and can be controlled via the command line. s3up can also automatically compress your images using Yahoo!'s Smush.it web service.
A longer explanation and example usage can be found here.
- Upload multiple files at once - including directories
- Automatically append timestamps onto files for versioning
- Upload a gzipped version of each file
- Add far future expiration header to each file
- Losslessly compress your images using Smush.it
Requires PHP5 and php_curl extension.
- Place s3up in a convenient location and make executable.
You're done!
