Are there any working examples of integrating with Amazon AWS and
specifically S3? I am thinking of putting data files in and out of S3.

Any tips to recent examples or packages would be appreciated.

I found S3 in tclllib which seems helpful. Any working examples?

See https://github.com/jerily/aws-sdk-tcl

Thanks for the link. There is no documentation on the package and the
s3 example has no comments at all. Well, some code lines are commented
out. I am afraid to spend time on it if it has no documentation.

Well you could always write a wrapper around the AWS CLI commands --
should be straight forward to do.

Right, it may come to that. I will find time to check out the the s3 in
tcllib and see if it is any useful first. I trust the stuff in tcllib a
bit more.

Well, there is this -
https://github.com/jerily/aws-sdk-tcl?tab=readme-ov-file#documentation.
If you follow the links there, it enumerates commands in each module.
Maybe you were looking for more. It is admittedly sparse. I think the
intent is to refer back to the AWS docs for the equivalent command,
either C or command line. For example, to use the Tcl S3 related
commands listed at
https://github.com/jerily/aws-sdk-tcl/tree/main/src/aws-sdk-tcl-s3 you
would refer to
https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/s3api/index.html#cli-aws-s3api
and / or
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli_s3_code_examples.html

A bit tedious but (not to speak for the author!) it is very onerous to
(re)document such a large wrapped API.

Sorry, I was not following the discussion earlier. Just released 1.0.4, which supports credentials in config dict and trace var in create client command.

# specify "dir" and "bucket_name" vars and then:

set config_dict [dict create aws_access_key_id "" aws_secret_access_key "" region "us-east-1"]
::aws::s3::create $config_dict s3_client

# put some text into a file named text.txt
$s3_client put_text $bucket_name "test.txt" "Hello World"

# download that file
$s3_client get $bucket_name "test.txt" myfile.txt

# upload a file
$s3_client put $bucket_name "my_logo.png" [file join $dir "logo_to_be_uploaded.png"]

# download the file
::aws::s3::get $s3_client $bucket_name "my_logo.png" [file join $dir "saved_logo.png"]

I understand that building aws-sdk-cpp on which aws-sdk-tcl relies is not the easiest of tasks.

If you need further info, please do not hesitate and let me know.

Added multiple S3 examples with comments here:
https://github.com/jerily/aws-sdk-tcl/tree/main/src/aws-sdk-tcl-s3/examples

I will do the same for the rest of the modules in aws-sdk-tcl (dynamodb, sqs, lambda, and so on).

Thank you. This is helpful. I don't have time at the moment to make
progress on this topic but I will return to it in a month or so.
