Total Commander

Does anyone know of an add-on for Amazon S3 support for TC7? I would like to be able to browse S3 buckets via TC7 and not some other client.

I vote for that.

I 3rd this idea. That'd be awesome.

I have already checked whether I could adapt my webDAV plugin for the S3 service because both use HTTP and XML. Unfortunately S3 doesn't seem to know the concept of subfolders, so it would be very hard to make it work.

Hi,

I'm author of S3 Browser and now i've finished developing Amazon S3 Plugin for Total Commander.

I'll publish it in the near future.

If you want to get beta version for testing, please contact me.

What is Amazon S3?

I was looking for some user opinions of it here and how they use it. Next time, save yourself the trouble of making me look like a fool. I would appreciate it. I get enough of that here already.

E.g: I have been using Jungle Disk for a year or so. It uses S3 for cheap, efficient, and reliable backup over the net. I swear by it. Beats the alternatives hands-down, except for collections of very large files. (As I recall, they charge something like 15 cents US per month per gigabyte for storage; this does not include bandwidth (upload/download) charges but those are not bad either.)

Sounds great! How did you solve the problem of missing folder support on Amazon S3?

I've solved it by listing buckets with Prefix and Delimiter.

Pre-release version is available for download, i've created new thread for S3 Browser plugin here.

I see - that solves it for files in subdirs. But how do you create empty directories? Do you create 0 byte files with a slash at the end?

yes, this is the most common way to simulate empty directories and most of the other amazon s3 clients uses it.
