Options Overview

  • The bucket specified in s3.yml will be created automatically when the plugin is loaded (this is generally when the server starts).
  • Deprecated (no longer supported, specify endpoint option instead) If you have created a CNAME entry for your bucket set the cname_bucket option to true in s3.yml and your files will be served from that domain.
  • After files are uploaded they are made public, unless private is set to true.
  • Public and private files can use HTTPS urls using the secure option
  • Files can use private signed urls using the private option
  • Private file urls can expire a set time after the links were generated using the expires option
