How can you tell if an object is a folder on AWS S3

Question

I doesn\'t appear in the meta data--whether an object is a folder or not. Is there a specific method you guys on SO know of? I can\'t find anything of worth in Google search.<

Answer 1

I don´t know if this response it will be usefull after so long, but here we go:

To resolve this problem you have to do this in java:

        List files = s3client.listObjects(bucket.getName()).getObjectSummaries();
        for (S3ObjectSummary file : files) {
            if (file.getKey().endsWith("/"))
                System.out.println("----" + file.getKey() + " (ES CARPETA)");
            else 
                System.out.println("----" + file.getKey() + " NO NO NO");
        }

With the method "endsWith("/")" you can detect if the S3ObjectSummary is a folder or not.

Hope this can helps someone.
