How to rename files and folder in Amazon S3?

Question

Is there any function to rename files and folders in Amazon S3? Any related suggestions are also welcome.

Answer 1

There is one software where you can play with the s3 bucket for performing different kinds of operation.

Software Name: S3 Browser

S3 Browser is a freeware Windows client for Amazon S3 and Amazon CloudFront. Amazon S3 provides a simple web services interface that can be used to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web. Amazon CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN). It can be used to deliver your files using a global network of edge locations.

If it's only single time then you can use the command line to perform these operations:

(1) Rename the folder in the same bucket:

s3cmd --access_key={access_key} --secret_key={secret_key} mv s3://bucket/folder1/* s3://bucket/folder2/

(2) Rename the Bucket:

s3cmd --access_key={access_key} --secret_key={secret_key} mv s3://bucket1/folder/* s3://bucket2/folder/

Where,

{access_key} = Your valid access key for s3 client

{secret_key} = Your valid scret key for s3 client

It's working fine without any problem.

Thanks
