Amazon Glacier from Python. Based on Boto, will contribute to Boto when it's a little more finished if it's any good at that point :)

glacier.py

# Thomas Parslow http://almostobsolete.net
# Just a work in progress and adapted to what I need right now. 
# It does uploads (via a file-like object that you write to) and
# I've started on downloads. Needs the development version of Boto from Github.
#
# Example:
#
#     glacierconn = GlacierConnection(AWS_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)
#     writer = GlacierWriter(glacierconn, GLACIER_VAULT)
#     writer.write(somedata)
#     writer.write(someotherdata)
#     writer.close()
#     # Get the id of the newly created archive
#     archive_id = writer.get_archive_id()
