Simple S3 Task

Added a very simple S3 task that enable files upload

<taskdef name="s3" classpath="aws-ant-task.jar" classname="it.corley.ant.S3PutTask" />
<s3 endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com" key="your-key" secret="your-secret" bucket="your-bucket-name" dest="path/to/file">
    <fileset dir="my/dir" includes="**/*.html" />
</s3>

File upload using default Ant fileset strategy.

<taskdef name="s3put" classpath="aws-ant-task.jar" classname="it.corley.ant.S3PutTask" />
<s3put endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com" key="your-key" secret="your-secret" bucket="your-bucket-name" dest="path/to/file">
  <fileset dir="${public.src}" casesensitive="yes">
    <patternset id="non.test.sources">
      <include name="**/*.js"/>
      <exclude name="**/*Test*"/>
    </patternset>
  </fileset>
</s3put>

Mark public files using publicRead

Consider that public property (Grant Everyone open/doownload) is marked on each file scanned by fileset directive. Your bucket rule is never touched.

<s3put
    endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com"
    key="your-key"
    secret="your-secret"
    bucket="your-bucket-name"
    dest="path/to/file"
    publicRead="true">
    <!-- fileset structure -->
</s3put>

Easily configure content types using contentType property or ContentTypeMapping type

Global Content-Type configuration:

<s3put
    endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com"
    key="your-key"
    secret="your-secret"
    bucket="your-bucket-name"
    dest="path/to/file"
    contentType="application/x-whatever">
    <!-- fileset structure -->
</s3put>

Content-Type mappers:

<typedef name="contenttypemapping" classname="it.corley.ant.ContentTypeMapping" classpathref="tasks.path"/>
<s3put
    endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com"
    key="your-key"
    secret="your-secret"
    bucket="your-bucket-name"
    dest="path/to/file"
    contentType="application/x-whatever">
    <fileset dir="dist" include="**/*"/>
    <contenttypemapping extension=".crx" contenttype="application/x-chrome-extension"/>
    <contenttypemapping extension=".xpi" contenttype="application/x-xpinstall"/>
</s3put>

Note then when setting global content-type using contentType property of the s3put task and setting mapping using contenttype.mapping, the mapping takes precedence if given.

Easily configure cache control using cacheControl property

Global Cache-Control configuration:

<s3put
    endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com"
    key="your-key"
    secret="your-secret"
    bucket="your-bucket-name"
    dest="path/to/file"
    contentType="application/x-whatever"
    cacheControl="max-age=3600">
    <!-- fileset structure -->
</s3put>

Cache-Control mappers:

<typedef name="cachecontrol.mapping" classname="it.corley.ant.CacheControlMapping" classpathref="tasks.path"/>
<s3put
    endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com"
    key="your-key"
    secret="your-secret"
    bucket="your-bucket-name"
    dest="path/to/file"
    contentType="application/x-whatever">
    <fileset dir="dist" include="**/*"/>
    <contenttypemapping extension=".crx" contenttype="application/x-chrome-extension"/>
    <contenttypemapping extension=".xpi" contenttype="application/x-xpinstall"/>
    <cachecontrol extension=".js" maxage="14400"/>
    <cachecontrol extension=".css" maxage="86400"/>
</s3put>

Easily configure content encoding using contentEncoding property

Global Content-Encoding configuration:

<s3put
    endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com"
    key="your-key"
    secret="your-secret"
    bucket="your-bucket-name"
    dest="path/to/file"
    contentType="application/x-whatever"
    contentEncoding="UTF-8">
    <!-- fileset structure -->
</s3put>

Content-Encoding mappers:

<typedef name="contentencoding.mapping" classname="it.corley.ant.ContentEncodingMapping" classpathref="tasks.path"/>
<s3put
    endpoint="s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com"
    key="your-key"
    secret="your-secret"
    bucket="your-bucket-name"
    dest="path/to/file"
    contentType="application/x-whatever">
    <fileset dir="dist" include="**/*"/>
    <contenttypemapping extension=".crx" contenttype="application/x-chrome-extension"/>
    <contenttypemapping extension=".xpi" contenttype="application/x-xpinstall"/>
    <cachecontrol extension=".js" maxage="14400"/>
    <cachecontrol extension=".css" maxage="86400"/>
    <contentencoding extension=".js" encoding="gzip"/>
    <contentencoding extension=".css" maxage="gzip"/>
</s3put>

SimpleDB Task

You can insert new rows into your SimpleDB domain using

<taskdef name="simpledb" classpath="aws-ant-task-${version}.jar" classname="it.corley.ant.SimpleDB" />
<simpledb key="your-key" secret="your-secret" domain="your-domain" region="your-sdb-region">
    <attribute name="my_property" value="my first value" />
    <attribute name="another_property" value="value for this property" />
</simpledb>

You have to download the latest aws-ant-task.jar binary file and add it into your project. Configure a new task as previous example.

Building and installing

With tests:

cp test.properties.dist test.properties
# Fill the test.properties accordingly
mvn package

or without them:

mvn package -Dmaven.test.skip=true

After properly building the tasks, all the jars needed to use them can be found in target/aws-ant-tasks-0.1-SNAPSHOT-bin directory. Just copy it whenever you like and use external classpath when defining the tasks:

<!-- Task for setting up the aws-ant-tasks -->
<target name="awstasks.setup">
    <path id="tasks.path">
        <fileset dir="target/aws-ant-tasks-0.1-SNAPSHOT-bin" includes="*.jar"/>
    </path>

    <taskdef name="s3put" classpath="aws-ant-task-${version}.jar" classname="it.corley.ant.S3PutTask"
             classpathref="tasks.path"/>
    <typedef name="contenttype.mapping" classname="it.corley.ant.ContentTypeMapping" classpathref="tasks.path"/>
</target>


<!--Actual use -->
<target name="use" description="Use the Task" depends="awstasks.setup">

</target>

Or copy them to the $ANT_HOME/libs directory and use directly, without specifying the classpath.
