Add-S3 Cmdlet

Parameters   Output Objects   Config Settings  

The Add-S3 component can be used to create objects and buckets in the Amazon S3 service.

Syntax

Add-S3 [parameters]

Remarks

The Add-S3 cmdlet allows you to access Amazon's Simple Storage Service (S3) in a secure manner using SSL. Add-S3 allows for the creation of objects and buckets. A brief synopsis follows but please refer to Amazon S3 documentation for details.

You will first need to sign up for the S3 service and obtain an AccessKey and SecretKey from Amazon. Then you can start creating buckets or objects in your account using Add-S3.

The cmdlets support pipeline input for some of their parameters. Prebuilding an object and piping it to the cmdlet is very useful, but should be used with caution to prevent security conflicts. Steps have been taken to decrease the risk of a possibly accidental pipe to the cmdlet, for instance, the Credential parameter cannot be piped to the cmdlet and must be specified manually.

#create bucket Add-S3 -AccessKey $S3AccessKey -SecretKey $S3SecretKey -Bucket TestBucket #create object Add-S3 -AccessKey $S3AccessKey -SecretKey $S3SecretKey -Bucket TestBucket -RemoteObject test_object -ObjectData "test data"

Syntax

Add-S3 -CertSubject string

Remarks

During the user authentication phase of the logon process, the cmdlet will search the store specified in CertStore for a certificate that matches this parameter. If the store contains a private key for that certificate, it is used to verify the user's identity with the secure server.

When this parameter is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store certificate with matching subject.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the parameter.

When setting the parameter to a partial subject, CN= should be omitted. For example, the following code would find the certificate with subject CN=Test Certificate, OU=People, C=US

Example (Searching with partial subject)

-certsubject "Test"

The region the component will make requests against.

Syntax

Add-S3 -Region string

Remarks

This property control which region the cmdlet will make requests against. By default the cmdlet uses us-east-1, the US East (N. Virginia) region. This property should be changed to create or access resources in other regions.

"us-east-1"

RemoteObject Property (Add-S3 Cmdlet)

Sets the remote object for the operation.

Syntax

Add-S3 -RemoteObject string

Remarks

Specifies the remote object to create. If not set, the cmdlet will create the Bucket instead.

Default Value

""

Parameter Alias

Object

SecretKey Property (Add-S3 Cmdlet)

The Secret Access Key for the Amazon Web Services account.

Syntax

Add-S3 -SecretKey string

Remarks

For more information, please refer to the Amazon documentation.

Default Value

""

SSL Property (Add-S3 Cmdlet)

Use SSL to access Amazon S3.

Syntax

Add-S3 -SSL SwitchParameter

Remarks

Use this property to determine whether the cmdlet uses SSL to connect with Amazon S3 servers.

Default Value

true

SSLAccept Property (Add-S3 Cmdlet)

The encoded public key of the certificate which is to be trusted explicitly.

Syntax

Add-S3 -SSLAccept string

Remarks

Ordinarily, the certificate presented by the server will be checked against the system certificate stores to see if the Certificate Authority is trusted, and if not, the cmdlet will prompt the user to accept the certificate. Setting this parameter will override the system settings and trust the certificate provided.

After each connection, regardless of whether or not the certificate was trusted, the cmdlet will store the certificate presented by the server in the $SSLServerCertificate session variable. This variable can be inspected to view details of the server's certificate.

If the Force parameter is set, the cmdlet will accept the server's certificate unconditionally.

In cases where the certificate presented by the server is not trusted, a prompt will be shown to the user. This prompt will allow the user to decide whether or not they would like to accept the certificate presented by the server.

There may be cases where you do not want a prompt to be displayed or would like to handle the response supplied directly within your script. This can be done by setting the $SSLAcceptPreference variable prior to running the cmdlet. The available values for this variable are:

None (default)Maintains the default behavior. If the certificate is not trusted by default, the user will be prompted.
AcceptAccepts the certificate without prompting the user, even if it is not trusted by default.
RejectRejects the certificate without prompting the user only if it is not trusted by default. Thus if the certificate is found to be trusted or the Force parameter is set, the connection will still be accepted.

Default Value

""

Parameter Alias

Accept

Timeout Property (Add-S3 Cmdlet)

The maximum time allowed for the operation.

Syntax

Add-S3 -Timeout int

Remarks

After the specified interval in seconds, the cmdlet will throw a Timeout error if the operation is not completed.

Default Value

10

UseVirtualHosting Property (Add-S3 Cmdlet)

Determines which style request to use.

Syntax

Add-S3 -UseVirtualHosting SwitchParameter

Remarks

If set to true (default), buckets will be referenced in the request using the hosted-style request: http://yourbucket.s3.amazonaws.com/yourobject If false, the cmdlet will use the path-style request: http://s3.amazonaws.com/yourbucket/yourobject

NOTE: When set to true, there are more limitations when choosing a bucket name due to DNS server naming restrictions. See Amazon's documentation for more detailed naming information.

Default Value

true

S3Create Output Object (Add-S3 Cmdlet)

Returned when an object or a bucket is created.

Syntax

Object S3Create {
   string Name;
   string Value;
   string Type;
}

Remarks

The Name field specifies the name of the created entity. The Value field specifies the value of the object that was created, and Type shows the type of the entity created (i.e., Object or Bucket).

Config Settings (Add-S3 Cmdlet)

The cmdlet accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the cmdlet, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

Base Config Settings

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a cmdlet is using. It will return the following information:

  • Product: The product the license is for.
  • Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
  • License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
  • License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
  • Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.
MaskSensitive:   Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.

In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to true to mask sensitive data. The default is true.

This setting only works on these cmdlets: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to false, the cmdlet will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable. In this case, calls to unmanaged code will be made. In certain environments, this is not desirable. To use a completely managed security implementation, set this setting to true.

Setting this configuration setting to true tells the cmdlet to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

On Windows, this setting is set to false by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to true by default.

If using the .NET Standard Library, this setting will be true on all platforms. The .NET Standard library does not support using the system security libraries.

Note: This setting is static. The value set is applicable to all cmdlets used in the application.

When this value is set, the product's system dynamic link library (DLL) is no longer required as a reference, as all unmanaged code is stored in that file.
