Amazon S3 Redirect Rules Generator

Amazon S3 Redirect Rules Generator

A Ruby script to generate simple Amazon S3 Redirection Rules XML file.

Update: There is an app for that now! Use Amazon S3 Redirector (Web app) and you can generate the XML without any knowledge about Ruby. Thanks to @rainforestapp. BTW, It's open source too.

Dependencies

• Nokogiri

Usage

ruby s3-routes-generator.rb input.txt

The generated XML is printed to STDOUT.

Assumptions on S3 Bucket

It assumes that:

1. Website Hosting is enabled.
2. Index Document is set to index.html.

Conversion Rules

1. For target path, if it ends with /, then index.html will be appended.
2. For source and target path, the leading / will be removed, because S3's object key does not begin with /.

Sample Input

One rule per line. Each rule is constructed by source and target path, spearated by at least 1 space.

Please not that rules are matched using KeyPrefixEquals, and is First-In-First-Out, so if you have multiple redirections from same prefixes (typically /dir and /dir/subdir), please put the longer one before the shorter one, i.e. Depth-First.

/home                        /
/products/iphone/specs.html  /iphone/specs.html
/products/iphone/            /iphone/
/products/ipad/accessories/  /ipad/accessories.html
/products/ipad/              /ipad/
/products                    /

Sample Output

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<RoutingRules>
  <RoutingRule>
    <Condition>
      <KeyPrefixEquals>home</KeyPrefixEquals>
    </Condition>
    <Redirect>

    </Redirect>
  </RoutingRule>
  <RoutingRule>
    <Condition>
      <KeyPrefixEquals>products/iphone/specs.html</KeyPrefixEquals>
