Quick way to list all files in Amazon S3 bucket?

Question

I have an amazon s3 bucket that has tens of thousands of filenames in it. What\'s the easiest way to get a text file that lists all the filenames in the bucket?

Answer 1

please try this bash script. it uses curl command with no need for any external dependencies

bucket=
region=
awsAccess=
awsSecret=
awsRegion="${region}"
baseUrl="s3.${awsRegion}.amazonaws.com"

m_sed() {
  if which gsed > /dev/null 2>&1; then
    gsed "$@"
  else
    sed "$@"
  fi
}

awsStringSign4() {
  kSecret="AWS4$1"
  kDate=$(printf         '%s' "$2" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hex -mac HMAC -macopt "key:${kSecret}"     2>/dev/null | m_sed 's/^.* //')
  kRegion=$(printf       '%s' "$3" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hex -mac HMAC -macopt "hexkey:${kDate}"    2>/dev/null | m_sed 's/^.* //')
  kService=$(printf      '%s' "$4" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hex -mac HMAC -macopt "hexkey:${kRegion}"  2>/dev/null | m_sed 's/^.* //')
  kSigning=$(printf 'aws4_request' | openssl dgst -sha256 -hex -mac HMAC -macopt "hexkey:${kService}" 2>/dev/null | m_sed 's/^.* //')
  signedString=$(printf  '%s' "$5" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hex -mac HMAC -macopt "hexkey:${kSigning}" 2>/dev/null | m_sed 's/^.* //')
  printf '%s' "${signedString}"
}

if [ -z "${region}" ]; then
  region="${awsRegion}"
fi


# Initialize helper variables

authType='AWS4-HMAC-SHA256'
service="s3"
dateValueS=$(date -u +'%Y%m%d')
dateValueL=$(date -u +'%Y%m%dT%H%M%SZ')

# 0. Hash the file to be uploaded

# 1. Create canonical request

# NOTE: order significant in ${signedHeaders} and ${canonicalRequest}

signedHeaders='host;x-amz-content-sha256;x-amz-date'

canonicalRequest="\

# Hash it

canonicalRequestHash=$(printf '%s' "${canonicalRequest}" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hex 2>/dev/null | m_sed 's/^.* //')

# 2. Create string to sign

stringToSign="\
${authType}
${dateValueL}
${dateValueS}/${region}/${service}/aws4_request
${canonicalRequestHash}"

# 3. Sign the string

signature=$(awsStringSign4 "${awsSecret}" "${dateValueS}" "${region}" "${service}" "${stringToSign}")

# Upload

curl -g -k "https://${baseUrl}/${bucket}" \
  -H "x-amz-content-sha256: e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855" \

  -H "Authorization: ${authType} Credential=${awsAccess}/${dateValueS}/${region}/${service}/aws4_request,SignedHeaders=${signedHeaders},Signature=${signature}"
