Listing files in a specific “folder” of a AWS S3 bucket

Question

I need to list all files contained in a certain folder contained in my S3 bucket.

The folder structure is the following

/my-bucket/users/

        

Answer 1

If your goal is only to take the files and not the folder, the approach I made was to use the file size as a filter. This property is the current size of the file hosted by AWS. All the folders return 0 in that property. The following is a C# code using linq but it shouldn't be hard to translate to Java.

var amazonClient = new AmazonS3Client(key, secretKey, region);
var listObjectsRequest= new ListObjectsRequest
            {
                BucketName = 'someBucketName',
                Delimiter = 'someDelimiter',
                Prefix = 'somePrefix'
            };
var objects = amazonClient.ListObjects(listObjectsRequest);
var objectsInFolder = objects.S3Objects.Where(file => file.Size > 0).ToList();
