A simple and light-weight S3 upload streaming module for NodeJS.

• Super fast and super easy to use
• Low memory usage
• Nothing is written to disk during upload
• Parallel part uploading
• No need to know total size of the object
• Implicit retry mechanism for failed part uploads
• Tons of configurable options
• Simple interface (Asynchronous and evented)
• Downloading and uploading statistics (U/D speed and U/D time)
• Proper usage of streams and graceful error handling
• Production ready (Used and tested on production environments, uploading gigabytes of files to S3)
• Uses official AWS SDK

$ npm install streaming-s3

Starting from version 0.4 onwards you can pass in an object that is used to configure the underlying aws-sdk. This can contain region and other parameters.

• Old Constructor (Still supported)

var uploader = new streamingS3(fStream, 'accessKey', 'secretKey', ...

• New Constructor

var uploader = new streamingS3(fStream, {accessKeyId: 'accessKey', secretAccessKey: 'secretKey'}, ...

var streamingS3 = require('streaming-s3'),
    fs = require('fs');

var fStream = fs.CreateReadStream(__dirname + '/video.mp4');
var uploader = new streamingS3(fStream, {accessKeyId: 'accessKey', secretAccessKey: 'secretKey'},
  {
    Bucket: 'example.streaming-s3.com',
    Key: 'video.mp4',
    ContentType: 'video/mp4'
  },  function (err, resp, stats) {
  if (err) return console.log('Upload error: ', e);
  console.log('Upload stats: ', stats);
  console.log('Upload successful: ', resp);
  }
);

var streamingS3 = require('streaming-s3'),
    fs = require('fs');

var fStream = fs.CreateReadStream(__dirname + '/video.mp4');
var uploader = new streamingS3(fStream, {accessKeyId: 'accessKey', secretAccessKey: 'secretKey'},
  {
    Bucket: 'example.streaming-s3.com',
    Key: 'video.mp4',
    ContentType: 'video/mp4'
  }
);
  
uploader.begin(); // important if callback not provided.

uploader.on('data', function (bytesRead) {
  console.log(bytesRead, ' bytes read.');
});

uploader.on('part', function (number) {
  console.log('Part ', number, ' uploaded.');
});

// All parts uploaded, but upload not yet acknowledged.
uploader.on('uploaded', function (stats) {
  console.log('Upload stats: ', stats);
});

uploader.on('finished', function (resp, stats) {
  console.log('Upload finished: ', resp);
});

uploader.on('error', function (e) {
  console.log('Upload error: ', e);
});

var streamingS3 = require('streaming-s3'),
    request = require('request');

var rStream = request.get('http://www.google.com');
var uploader = new streamingS3(rStream, {accessKeyId: 'accessKey', secretAccessKey: 'secretKey'},
  {
    Bucket: 'example.streaming-s3.com',
    Key: 'google.html',
    ContentType: 'text/html'
  },
  {
    concurrentParts: 2,
    waitTime: 10000,
    retries: 1,
    maxPartSize: 10*1024*1024,
  }
);
  
uploader.begin(); // important if callback not provided.

uploader.on('data', function (bytesRead) {
  console.log(bytesRead, ' bytes read.');
});

uploader.on('part', function (number) {
  console.log('Part ', number, ' uploaded.');
});

// All parts uploaded, but upload not yet acknowledged.
uploader.on('uploaded', function (stats) {
  console.log('Upload stats: ', stats);
});

uploader.on('finished', function (resp, stats) {
  console.log('Upload finished: ', resp);
});

uploader.on('error', function (e) {
  console.log('Upload error: ', e);
});

• concurrentParts (Default: 5) - Parts that are uploaded simultaneously.

• maxPartSize (Default: 5 MB) - Maximum size of each part.

• downloadTime - Download time in seconds. (Reading from stream)
• downloadSpeed - Download speed in bytes/second.
• uploadTime - Upload time in seconds.
• uploadSpeed - Upload speed in bytes/second. (Streaming to S3)
• size - Total bytes uploaded.
