Question

i have problem with amazon s3 service and a web service writed with php.
This WS receive from $_POST a file base64encoded. I need to take this “string” and save to Amazon S3 bucket.
I didn’t find a right solution for do that, and after a week of work I’m looking for help here.

//$file = 'kdK9IWUAAAAdaVRYdENvbW1lbnQAAAAAAENyZWF0ZWQgd'
$file = $_POST['some_file'];
$opt = array(
      'fileUpload' => base64_decode($file),
      'acl' => AmazonS3::ACL_PUBLIC
    );
$s3 = new AmazonS3(AWS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_KEY);
$response = $s3->create_object($bucket, $filename, $opt);

Thanks

Per the docs, fileUpload expects a URL or path, or an fopen resource.

fileUpload – string|resource – Required; Conditional – The URL/path for the file to upload, or an open resource. Either this parameter or body is required.

You should pass the decoded file data via the body parameter instead:

body – string – Required; Conditional – The data to be stored in the object. Either this parameter or fileUpload must be specified.
