Add content() to s3Client.getObject(getObjectRequest).response() and return S3Object

[eddumelendez]

Currently, I am working on spring cloud aws integration with s3, moving the existing implementation from sdk v1 to v2 and I would like to perform some operations in a friendly way. In this case, if the user is working with objects use S3Object instead of *Response classes.

The sdk allow me to do this in order to get a list of s3 objects this.s3Client.listObjects(listObjectsRequest).contents() which returns List<S3Object>. However, when try this.s3Client.getObject(getObjectRequest).response() there is no method that returns S3Object, instead it provides a metadata() method.

Proposed Solution

In order to have consistency between operations would be great that this.s3Client.getObject(getObjectRequest) provides content() which returns S3Object

Hi @eddumelendez, the SDK v2 clients are generated based on service models, this change would need to come from S3. In v1 the S3 client was hand-written so we didn't have this restriction.

It would be good to see consistency between operations, but I don't think this is something S3 can change now unfortunately. I'll go ahead and close this. Thank you for reaching out.
