Read file from aws s3 bucket using node fs

Question

I am attempting to read a file that is in a aws s3 bucket using

fs.readFile(file, function (err, contents) {
  var myLines = contents.Body.toString().split(         


        

Answer 1

var fileStream = fs.createWriteStream('/path/to/file.jpg');
var s3Stream = s3.getObject({Bucket: 'myBucket', Key: 'myImageFile.jpg'}).createReadStream();

// Listen for errors returned by the service
s3Stream.on('error', function(err) {
    // NoSuchKey: The specified key does not exist
    console.error(err);
});

s3Stream.pipe(fileStream).on('error', function(err) {
    // capture any errors that occur when writing data to the file
    console.error('File Stream:', err);
}).on('close', function() {
    console.log('Done.');
});
