aws-sdk

[ksheurs]

is there anyway to support aws-sdk? with the sdk we do not have access to establish_connection to specify host and port :(

[jubos]

I want to add support for this. It might be easiest by supplying some sort of monkey patch to aws-sdk to allow it, but that is not ideal.

[jubos]

Actually you might be able to do it by overriding their dns hostnames by using dnsmasq or /etc/hosts.

ooh great idea with using /etc/hosts! let me try..

[ksheurs]

i tried adding a /etc/resolver/s3.amazonaws.com file with nameserver 127.0.0.1 and port 10001 but it seems to just hang when i ping the domain after. any ideas?

this is the method http://pow.cx/ uses to route all 'dev' top level domains to localhost:20560.

I am looking into this. you can pass in s3_endpoint (used to be :server) and :s3_port (was :port) in a config yml.

However, it is timing out for me. I'll report back when I know more.

It would be nice to see a workaround for this.
s3_endpoint and s3_host is giving me timeout also.

Anyone found something else?

I added a snippet to the "Supported Clients" page showing how to set this up. The major caveat is DNS entries/redirects.

If you have set your s3_endpoint to myfakes3.local and you wish to push data to a bucket named bucket then the host bucket.myfakes3.local should be defined. For myself, the easiest way to take care of this was to make DNS entries for fakes3.domain.tld and *.fakes3.domain.tld and set my s3_endpoint to fakes3.domain.tld. This lets me use any bucket name without worrying about creating new hosts/resolver entries, but requires some existing infrastructure to set up.

This is documented enough IMO. FWW I have no trouble using fake-s3 with AWS SDK. Consider closing.

This is how I connect to fake-s3 inside a docker container. The thing to take extra note of is s3ForcePathStyle: true which makes specifying an ip in the endpoint okay, since it force the use of http://host:port/bucket-name/... instead of http://bucket-name.host:port/....

return new AWS.S3({
  apiVersion: '2006-03-01',
  sslEnabled: false,
  accessKeyId: 'x',
  secretAccessKey: 'x',
  endpoint: resolveEnv('http://$S3_PORT_4569_TCP_ADDR:$S3_PORT_4569_TCP_PORT'),
  s3ForcePathStyle: true
});

I was running into the timeout issue as well. I thought it was aws-sdk, but it was a problem in my paperlip config. The paperclip initializer expects s3_host_name instead of s3_endpoint.

About a month ago I added an example to the wiki, for any future searchers.

[pickhardt]

Closing because this is being discussed in multiple places, and this particular discussion is old.

For future reference, it should work if you spoof your /etc/hosts to point s3.amazonaws.com to localhost, and make sure you're using the latest versions of Fake S3 and the aws-sdk. If it doesn't, please open a new issue with an example of what you tried.
