Transport

Transport is the class for download and upload resources.

Downloading a resource

 from django_s3.transport import Transport
 from django_s3.resource import Resource

 rource = Resource('some_name.jpg')
 transport = Transport()
 filename = transport.download(resource)
 

Uploading a resource

 from django_s3.transport import Transport
 from django_s3.resource import Resource

 rource = Resource('some_name.jpg')
 transport = Transport()
 filename = transport.upload(resource)

Downloading a resource by name

 from django_s3.transport import Transport
 from django_s3.resource import Resource

 filename = transport.download('some_name.jpg')

Resource

Class for holding information about resources. A resource's name has to follow the following name convention:

<code><serial>_<rest_of_the_resource_name><size>.<extension>

• : Upper case letters that identify the resource type (Ex. 'BG' for Backgrounds)
• : A serial number unique for every resource.
• <rest_of_the_resource_name>: String for a name.
• : The size of the image (Ex. 800x600)
• : The image's extension.

# Example that shows how to get info about a resource.

from django_s3.resource import Resource

 rource = Resource('some_name.jpg')
 code = resource.code               # The code of the type.
 size = resource.size               # The size, as a 2-tuple value.    
 extension = resource.extension     # The extension
 category = resource.category       # The category mapped to the code.
 url = resource.url                 # The url where to find the resource

All this attributes are read-only, and computed at creation time.

Browser

A class for walking through the bucket filesystem.

from django_s3.browser import Browser
from django_s3.browser import FileTreeNode


browser = Browser()
root_node = browser.walk()                  # Returns the whole directory tree. 
node = browser.walk('path/to/some/node')    # Returns the directory tree relative to the path
                                            # passed by parameter
                                            
# You can check for the node type as well
if node.type == FileTreeNode.DIR:
    pass

if node.type == FileTreeNode.File:
    pass

Accessing resource info using Resource class.

Just create a new resource instance and query it for its metadata.

from django_s3.browser import Browser

browser = Browser()
node = browser.walk('path/to/some/node')    # Returns the directory tree relative to the path
                                            # passed by parameter
resource = Resource(node.name)              # Now you can see metadata for resources.
