S3Proxy

S3Proxy implements the S3 API and proxies requests, enabling several use cases:

translation from S3 to Backblaze B2, EMC Atmos, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and OpenStack Swift
testing without Amazon by using the local filesystem
extension via middlewares
embedding into Java applications

Usage with Docker

Docker Hub hosts a Docker image and has instructions on how to run it.

Usage without Docker

Users can download releases from GitHub. Developers can build the project by running mvn package which produces a binary at target/s3proxy. S3Proxy requires Java 11 or newer to run.

Configure S3Proxy via a properties file. An example using the local file system as the storage backend with anonymous access:

s3proxy.authorization=none
s3proxy.endpoint=http://127.0.0.1:8080
jclouds.provider=filesystem
jclouds.filesystem.basedir=/tmp/s3proxy

First create the filesystem basedir:

mkdir /tmp/s3proxy

Next run S3Proxy. Linux and Mac OS X users can run the executable jar:

chmod +x s3proxy
s3proxy --properties s3proxy.conf

Windows users must explicitly invoke java:

java -jar s3proxy --properties s3proxy.conf

Finally test by creating a bucket then listing all the buckets:

$ curl --request PUT http://localhost:8080/testbucket

$ curl http://localhost:8080/
<?xml version="1.0" ?><ListAllMyBucketsResult xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/"><Owner><ID>75aa57f09aa0c8caeab4f8c24e99d10f8e7faeebf76c078efc7c6caea54ba06a</ID><DisplayName>[email protected]</DisplayName></Owner><Buckets><Bucket><Name>testbucket</Name><CreationDate>2015-08-05T22:16:24.000Z</CreationDate></Bucket></Buckets></ListAllMyBucketsResult>

Usage with Java

Maven Central hosts S3Proxy artifacts and the wiki has instructions on Java use.

Supported storage backends

atmos
aws-s3 (Amazon-only)
azureblob
b2
filesystem (on-disk storage)
google-cloud-storage
openstack-swift
rackspace-cloudfiles-uk and rackspace-cloudfiles-us
s3 (all implementations)
transient (in-memory storage)

See the wiki for examples of configurations.

Assigning buckets to backends

S3Proxy can be configured to assign buckets to different backends with the same credentials. The configuration in the properties file is as follows:

s3proxy.bucket-locator.1=bucket
s3proxy.bucket-locator.2=another-bucket

In addition to the explicit names, glob syntax can be used to configure many buckets for a given backend.

A bucket (or a glob) cannot be assigned cannot be assigned to multiple backends.

Middlewares

S3Proxy can modify its behavior based on middlewares:

SSL Support

S3Proxy can listen on HTTPS by setting the secure-endpoint and configuring a keystore. You can read more about how configure S3Proxy for SSL Support in the dedicated wiki page with Docker, Kubernetes or simply Java.

Limitations

S3Proxy has broad compatibility with the S3 API, however, it does not support:

ACLs other than private and public-read
BitTorrent hosting
bucket logging
bucket policies
CORS bucket operations like getting or setting the CORS configuration for a bucket. S3Proxy only supports a static configuration (see below).
hosting static websites
object server-side encryption
object tagging
object versioning, see #74
POST upload policies, see #73
requester pays buckets
select object content

S3Proxy emulates the following operations:

copy multi-part objects, see #76

S3Proxy has basic CORS preflight and actual request/response handling. It can be configured within the properties file (and corresponding ENV variables for Docker):

s3proxy.cors-allow-origins=https://example\.com https://.+\.example\.com https://example\.cloud
s3proxy.cors-allow-methods=GET PUT
s3proxy.cors-allow-headers=Accept Content-Type

CORS cannot be configured per bucket. s3proxy.cors-allow-all=true will accept any origin and header. Actual CORS requests are supported for GET, PUT and POST methods.

The wiki collects compatibility notes for specific storage backends.
