Quick example using AWS Node.js SDK V3 for Signed URLs

/ / No Comments
This probably falls into the "it was easy for everyone else in the world but me" bucket, but I really struggled to find good search results for this and figured I’d better write it down so when I google for it again in a few months, I’ll find my own blog. Specifically – today I was trying to use the AWS Node.js SDK to generate signed URLs. One to create read-only access to a bucket item and another to allow uploading. Everything I’m sharing is covered in the docs, but I struggled to find the relevant parts. So first off, V3 of the SDK is modularized, so instead of installing a giant SDK, you get just what you need. A lot of the demos show S3 so that’s handy.... more →

I didn’t want to build "proper" pagination, just one giant list in on an HTML page. That’s not the best UX but as I’m building this for me, I approve. I thought it would be a quick little script, but as I built it, I ran into a few interesting... more →
