Uploading files using the Python boto3 library

boto3 is a Python library provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that makes it easy to access S3 buckets (and other AWS Services).

Since ScaleWay Object Storage is compatible with S3, we can use boto3 to upload and download files to/from our bucket.

Install boto3

We recommend using a virtual environment to install boto3.

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install boto3

Upload a file

import boto3
import os 

os.environ['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'] = '<ADD YOUR ACCESS KEY ID HERE>'
os.environ['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'] = '<ADD YOUR SECRET ACCESS KEY HERE>'
bucket = '<ADD YOUR BUCKET NAME HERE>'

s3 = boto3.client('s3', endpoint_url='https://s3.fr-par.scw.cloud', region_name='fr-par')
s3.upload_file(Filename='local_file.csv', Bucket=bucket, Key='input/sample.csv')

See upload_file.py for more details.
