DESCRIPTION

S3 Browser is a Mac OS X administration tool for the Amazon S3 data storage service.

My goal is to build a small application useful in itself for developers or users subscribed to the S3 service, but also to provide example code showing how to access S3 through the REST API in a OS X Objective-C client application, on top of OS X technologies (Keychain, URL loading system, ...).

Basic S3 operations are implemented (bucket list/create/delete), objects deletion, upload and download (using streaming network code to be able to deal with large files). There is also a small low-level request inspector and a task console.

To use this application, you will need a Amazon WebServices account.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.1:
  • Command-line version ! (contributed by Gerhard Poul, Thanks !). Check the s3util target in the Xcode project
  • Privacy settings in upload are now saved across sessions (#42)
  • Improvements in core network code (Gerhard, Michael)
  • Improved compliance with S3 reference (Harmen)
  • Additional safeguard dialog when removing objects (#43)
  • Preparing support for virtual hosting buckets and european/us switch for next version
  • Improvements to the upload/download rate displays
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later, Amazon WebServices account.

ZO219  This way better than Jungledisk, which I'm sorry I paid for.

S3 is mostly straightforward, behaving as you would expect. There's no indication that the terrific browser window opens by double-clicking on the bucket name in the Connection window. But that window, gee, lists your files, in English, their sizes, listed your files, by name, their sizes and dates, the immense number of S3 logs, etc.

There now, was that so hard? It eludes me why Jungle Disk is so ... complicated? Expensive? Exists?  
(Version 1.1)
