Exclude multiple folders using AWS S3 sync

Question

How to exclude multiple folders while using aws s3 syn ?

I tried :

# aws s3 sync  s3://inksedge-app-file-storage-bucket-prod-env   s3://inksedge-app-file         


        

Answer 1

At last this worked for me:

aws s3 sync s3://my-bucket s3://my-other-bucket \
            --exclude 'customers/*' \
            --exclude 'orders/*' \
            --exclude 'reportTemplate/*'  

Hint: you have to enclose your wildcards and special characters in single or double quotes to work properly. Below are examples of matching characters. for more information regarding S3 commands, check it in amazon here.

*: Matches everything
?: Matches any single character
[sequence]: Matches any character in sequence
[!sequence]: Matches any character not in sequence
