poc-aws-s3-node-bypass-proxy

Proof Of Concept: Making a proxy of S3 download content.

• Using express to serve a http endpoint for requesting files (in this case /download/:bucket/:key)
• Downloading a file from Amazon S3
• Send it directly to the requested client via HTTP. No cache, no temp file.

Usage

• You need to create your own credentials-aws.json according the official Amazon NPM aws-node: http://aws.amazon.com/de/sdkfornodejs/
• Start the server with coffee server.coffee, the server listens on port 3005 at default on the route /download/<bucket>/<key>.
• If you want to download http://s3.amazonaws.com/[bucket-name]/[key-name] use http://localhost:3005/download/[bucket-name]/[key-name]
