New versions of this module and support for Omeka S version 3.0 and above are available on GitLab, which seems to respect users and privacy better than the previous repository.
Amazon S3 is a module for Omeka S that allows to store files via an external storage provider, Amazon S3.
This module is compatible with Archive Repertory, that allows to keep original filenames for the files managed by Omeka, and the Image Server used with IIIF Server.
See general end user documentation for installing a module.
The module uses an external library AWS SDK, so use the release zip to install it, or use and init the source.
- From the zip
Download the last release AmazonS3.zip from the list of releases (the master
does not contain the dependency), and uncompress it in the modules directory.
- From the source and for development:
If the module was installed from the source, rename the name of the folder of
the module to AmazonS3, and go to the root of the module, and run:
composer install --no-devSimply config your credentials in the config page of the module.
If module is active, it will replace default Local store class with S3 Storage.
In some cases, you need to adjust rights in s3: see issue #2.
To fix Amazon cors issues, see the aws documentation.
- Fill and use the config key
[file_store][awss3][base_uri]. - Allow to keep original url of Omeka (proxy via htaccess), to allow to change backend without losing file urls (see stackoverflow.
Use it at your own risk.
It’s always recommended to backup your files and your databases and to check your archives regularly so you can roll back if needed.
