Overview

This library provides a high-level abstraction over the AWS SDK for Go v2, simplifying S3 bucket/object management and IAM operations. It includes advanced features like multipart uploads with the pusher pattern, automatic path style configuration for MinIO, and comprehensive error handling.

Design Philosophy

1. Simplicity: High-level abstractions hide AWS SDK complexity
2. Thread-Safe: All operations support concurrent access
3. MinIO Compatible: Tested against both AWS and MinIO
4. Error Handling: Structured errors with detailed context
5. Flexibility: Support for both AWS and custom S3-compatible endpoints

---

Key Features

• S3 Operations: Complete bucket and object lifecycle management
• IAM Management: Users, groups, roles, and policies
• Multipart Upload: Efficient pusher pattern for large files (configurable part size)
• MinIO Support: Full compatibility with MinIO S3 implementation
• Thread-Safe: Concurrent-safe client with proper synchronization
• Flexible Config: AWS credentials or custom endpoint configuration
• Path Styles: Automatic virtual-hosted-style or path-style URL handling
• Error Context: Detailed error messages with operation context

Quick Start

AWS S3 Basic Setup

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "net/http"
    
    "github.com/nabbar/golib/aws"
    "github.com/nabbar/golib/aws/configAws"
)

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()
    
    // AWS configuration
    cfg := configAws.NewConfig(
        "my-bucket",
        "us-east-1",
        "AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID",
        "AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY",
    )
    
    // Create client
    client, err := aws.New(ctx, cfg, http.DefaultClient)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    
    // List buckets
    buckets, err := client.Bucket().List()
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    
    for _, bucket := range buckets {
        fmt.Printf("Bucket: %s\n", *bucket.Name)
    }
}

MinIO Setup

package main

import (
    "context"
    "net/http"
    "net/url"
    
    "github.com/nabbar/golib/aws"
    "github.com/nabbar/golib/aws/configCustom"
)

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()
    
    // MinIO endpoint
    endpoint, _ := url.Parse("http://localhost:9000")
    
    cfg := configCustom.NewConfig(
        "test-bucket",
        "minioadmin",
        "minioadmin",
        endpoint,
        "us-east-1",
    )
    
    // Register region (required for MinIO)
    cfg.RegisterRegionAws(nil)
    
    client, err := aws.New(ctx, cfg, http.DefaultClient)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    
    // Enable path-style URLs (required for MinIO)
    client.ForcePathStyle(ctx, true)
    
    // Create bucket
    err = client.Bucket().Create("")
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
}

Upload Large File with Pusher

import (
    "os"
    "github.com/nabbar/golib/aws/pusher"
    sdkaws "github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/aws"
)

file, _ := os.Open("large-file.dat")
defer file.Close()

// Create pusher config
cfg := &pusher.Config{
    FuncGetClientS3: func() *s3.Client {
        return client.GetClientS3()
    },
    ObjectS3Options: pusher.ConfigObjectOptions{
        Bucket: sdkaws.String("my-bucket"),
        Key:    sdkaws.String("large-file.dat"),
    },
    PartSize:   10 * 1024 * 1024, // 10MB parts
    BufferSize: 64 * 1024,         // 64KB buffer
    CheckSum:   true,
}

// Create pusher and upload
p, _ := pusher.New(ctx, cfg)
defer p.Close()

written, _ := p.ReadFrom(file)
p.Complete()

fmt.Printf("Uploaded %d bytes\n", written)

Performance

S3 Operation Benchmarks

Operation	File Size	Latency	Throughput	Notes
Bucket List	100 items	~100ms	-	Single API call
Object Put	1 MB	~200ms	~5 MB/s	Direct upload
Object Put	10 MB	~1s	~10 MB/s	Direct upload
Object Get	1 MB	~150ms	~6.7 MB/s	Streaming download
Object Get	10 MB	~800ms	~12.5 MB/s	Streaming download
Pusher Upload	100 MB	~11s	~9.1 MB/s	Multipart (10 parts)
Pusher Upload	1 GB	~110s	~9.3 MB/s	Multipart (100 parts)

Memory Usage

• Client Instance: ~2 KB
• Config Instance: ~1 KB
• Buffer per Operation: ~64 KB (configurable)
• Pusher Instance: ~256 KB + (part_size × 2)

Concurrency

• Thread-Safe: All operations support concurrent access
• Recommended: Max 10 concurrent operations per client
• Tested: 1000+ operations without memory leaks

Use Cases

1. Backup System

// Stream backup files to S3
for _, file := range backupFiles {
    f, _ := os.Open(file)
    defer f.Close()
    
    // Upload to S3 with metadata
    client.Object().PutWithMeta(file, f, map[string]string{
        "backup-date": time.Now().Format(time.RFC3339),
        "source-host": hostname,
    })
}

2. Media Processing Pipeline

// Download video, process, upload result
video, _ := client.Object().Get("input/video.mp4")
defer video.Body.Close()

processed := processVideo(video.Body)
client.Object().Put("output/processed.mp4", processed)

3. IAM User Provisioning

// Create user with access key
client.User().Create("john-doe")
accessKey, secretKey, _ := client.User().CreateAccessKey("john-doe")

// Add to group
client.Group().AddUser("developers", "john-doe")

// Attach policy
client.Group().AttachPolicy("developers", policyARN)

4. Multi-Region Replication

// List objects from source bucket
objects, _ := sourceClient.Object().List("")

// Copy to destination region
for _, obj := range objects {
    data, _ := sourceClient.Object().Get(*obj.Key)
    defer data.Body.Close()
    
    destClient.Object().Put(*obj.Key, data.Body)
}

5. Large File Distribution

// Upload large files with pusher for efficiency
for _, largeFile := range files {
    f, _ := os.Open(largeFile)
    defer f.Close()
    
    p, _ := pusher.New(ctx, pusherConfig)
    p.ReadFrom(f)
    p.Complete()
    p.Close()
}

Best Practices

1. Context Usage

// Always use context with timeout
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 30*time.Second)
defer cancel()

client, err := aws.New(ctx, cfg, httpClient)

2. Resource Cleanup

// Always close readers
obj, _ := client.Object().Get("file.txt")
defer obj.Body.Close()

// Close pusher instances
p, _ := pusher.New(ctx, cfg)
defer p.Close()

3. Error Handling

if err != nil {
    // Check for specific errors
    if errors.Is(err, helper.ErrorBucketNotFound) {
        // Handle bucket not found
    }
    log.Printf("Operation failed: %v", err)
    return err
}

4. Large File Uploads

// Use pusher for files > 5MB
if fileSize > 5*1024*1024 {
    // Use pusher with multipart
    p, _ := pusher.New(ctx, pusherConfig)
    p.ReadFrom(file)
    p.Complete()
} else {
    // Direct upload for small files
    client.Object().Put(key, file)
}

5. MinIO Configuration

// Required for MinIO compatibility
client.ForcePathStyle(ctx, true)

// Register custom region
cfg.RegisterRegionAws(map[string]*url.URL{
    "us-east-1": minioEndpoint,
})

6. Client Reuse

// Create once, reuse across application
var globalClient aws.AWS

func init() {
    globalClient, _ = aws.New(ctx, cfg, httpClient)
}
