A custom FileField for django models that allows copying from a source bucket in S3. This package allows for uploading a local file to a S3 backend (as normally done with the build-in django FileField) and also allows for copying a file in an existing source S3 bucket to the destination S3 bucket/key as defined in the S3Boto3Storage setting. Additional, if there is a file in the destination S3 bucket that is not tracked in django, this will create the entry in django without impacting the existing S3 file.
Full documentation can be found on http://django-s3filefield.readthedocs.org. Documentation source files are available in the docs folder.
