Question

I’m trying to upload an image to Amazon S3 and get a link for the file(Using ASIHTTPRequest for amazon s3). For now I have done the following(my questions are actually in code):

- (void) uploadAnImageToS3 {
        NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
        [ASIS3Request setSharedSecretAccessKey:@"*****here I put my secretkey*****"];
        [ASIS3Request setSharedAccessKey:@"*****here I put my key*****"];
        NSData *imageData = [NSData dataWithData:UIImagePNGRepresentation(self.imageToPost)];
        NSString * key = @"aKey"
        ASIS3ObjectRequest *request = [ASIS3ObjectRequest PUTRequestForData:imageData withBucket:@"theBucketName" key:key];
        [request setShouldCompressRequestBody:YES];
        [request startSynchronous];


        if (![request error]) {
            //Here I should share a link for the put file, how do I get it? Is there any response from s3?
        }
        else {
            NSLog(@"%@",[[request error] localizedDescription]);
        }
    [self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(stopActivity) withObject:self waitUntilDone:YES];
    [pool release];
}

Okey, I’ve managed to do it myself 🙂
Firstly you should set an access policy which is the property of PUT request

requestForPUTSmth.accessPolicy = ASIS3AccessPolicyPublicReadWrite;

The link for the file is composed in such way:

NSString * linkString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@”http://%@.s3.amazonaws.com/%@”, bucket, key];

Where bucket – is the name of your folder on S3 and Key is the name of file. That’s it.
