Large Image Uploading to S3 directly from the clipboard for easy sharing
Prefer to just resize your image? Don't care about sharing with full quality? Check out my other macro solution Discord Screenshot Resizer.
I've always been annoyed at the file size limit when trying to send a quick screenshot to a friend while playing games or attaching large images to work emails, so I created these tools.
(Note that when you paste the direct link into discord or similar, the image preview will show automatically. There is no need to have the recipient download or open anything)
I typically use AutoHotKey, but in this case I bound mine to my G6 key using Logitech G Hub software. The batch file must be in the same directory as the python script.
# Example AutoHotKey Macro Bind
# Ctrl + LShift + 6

Run, C:\Path\To\launch_clipboardutil.bat
I created an IAM user with policies to only allow this user to upload/putObjects, but all unauthenticated users can retrieve files from the specified bucket.
pip3 install pillow boto3 pyperclip --target /path/to/directory/with/script/
(or use the included pip3 install -r requirements.txt)
I typically use Alt+PrintScrn or Win+Shift+S but feel free to use your own method
Your image will be uploaded to the bucket automatically
The clipboard is automatically overwritten to contain the url of the uploaded object. Paste directly into Discord, Slack, Gmail, etc.
