rails3 is a simple hack done in one hour of drone coding using the Amazon S3 Ruby API. The expected result was feel how would be use the new technology in a ruby on rails environment.

This application was done to help me understand how I can use Amazon S3 and I’m not responsible for any damage you can do to your computer, amazon account or environment. Use at your own risk!

important notes 16 Mar 2006

1: At this time the application just work if a pre-created bucket name
was defined here. If you don’t have created a bucket before please check the
API documentation about how do that.

2: All uploaded files are automatically defined as public, so will be
accessible by any web browser, so don’t upload sensible data.

how to setup the application 16 Mar 2006

The application is pretty minimal, just a controller and a view. There’s no
database layer (so no model files) and it’s very easy to deploy.

1 – edit the config/environment.rb file, changing the last 3 lines:

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = '00000000000001'                    # your AWS ACCESS KEY
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = 'D558U*EFHmfdoijnej78847499dfh98whud9'  # your SECRET
BUCKET = 'bucket-name'                            # a PREVIOUS CREATED bucket

2 – run the script/server command to start webrick

3 – launch your browser and access http://localhost:3000/

4 – there’s no step 4 :)
