README

This SilverStripe plugin allows file to be uploaded directly to S3 and track as SilverStripe DataObjects.

Requirements

• SilverStripe 3.1
• AWS SDK for PHP v3

Installation

Install the module through composer:

composer require firebrandhq/s3fileupload

Setting up your S3 bucket

To be able to do a direct up load to S3, your bucket must have CORS Configuration. To Set up your CORS configuration:

1. Log into S3 and access your bucket.
2. Select Properties to view your bucket properties.
3. Under Permission, select Edit CORS Configuration.
4. In the pop up, input your CORS configuration in XML format.

Sample CORS configuration

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CORSConfiguration xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/">
    <CORSRule>
        <AllowedOrigin>http://example.com</AllowedOrigin>
        <AllowedMethod>POST</AllowedMethod>
        <MaxAgeSeconds>3000</MaxAgeSeconds>
        <ExposeHeader>Location</ExposeHeader>
        <AllowedHeader>*</AllowedHeader>
    </CORSRule>
    <CORSRule>
        <AllowedOrigin>https://dev.example.com</AllowedOrigin>
        <AllowedMethod>POST</AllowedMethod>
        <MaxAgeSeconds>3000</MaxAgeSeconds>
        <ExposeHeader>Location</ExposeHeader>
        <AllowedHeader>*</AllowedHeader>
    </CORSRule>
    <CORSRule>
        <AllowedOrigin>http://localhost</AllowedOrigin>
        <AllowedMethod>POST</AllowedMethod>
        <MaxAgeSeconds>3000</MaxAgeSeconds>
        <ExposeHeader>Location</ExposeHeader>
        <AllowedHeader>*</AllowedHeader>
    </CORSRule>
</CORSConfiguration>

Note that you'll need a separate CORSRule entry for each domain from which you plan to upload files.

You'll also need a CORSRule entry for each protocol.

Getting an Access Key and a Secret

You'll need to generate an AWS Access Key ID and Secret Access Key to allow SilverStripe to communicate with S3.

For security reasons, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to create a new user with limited access. This will minimise the damage should your Access Key and/or Secret ever be compromised.

Sample Policy for your AWS user

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": "s3:ListAllMyBuckets",
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::*"
        },
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": "s3:*",
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::name-of-your-bucket",
                "arn:aws:s3:::name-of-your-bucket/*"
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Configuring SilverStripe

You can use a YML config file to tell SilverStripe how to access your bucket.

Create a s3.yml file in mysite/_config.

S3File:
  Bucket: 'name-of-your-bucket'
  Region: 'us-east-1'
  AccessId: 'YOUACCESSKEYID'
  Secret: 'YOURACCESSKEYSECRET'

You don't have to provide the Bucket or Region in YML file if you don't want to. Those can be manually set on your S3FileUploadField.

Adding an S3File to a SilverStripe DataObject/Page

<?php
class Page extends SiteTree {

	private static $has_one = array(
        'File' => 'S3File'
	);

    public function getCMSFields() {
		$fields = parent::getCMSFields();

		$s3Field = S3FileUploadField::create('File', 'S3 File')
            ->setAllowedMaxFileNumber(1);

        // You can omit the following 2 lines.
        // It will fallback on the YML configuration.
        $s3Field->setBucket('YourBucketName');
        $s3Field->setRegion('us-east-1');

		$fields->insertBefore(
			S3FileUploadField::create('S3File', 'S3 File')
				->setAllowedMaxFileNumber(1),
			'Description'
		);

		$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Main',$s3Field);

		return $fields;
	}

}

Reference the file in your SS Template

<h2>Simple link</h2>
<p>
$File <br/>
You can customize this by overriding S3File.ss
</p>

<h2>Full file details</h2>
<ul>
    <li><strong>File name:</strong> $File.Name </li>
    <li><strong>Size:</strong> $File.SizeForHuman </li>
    <li><strong>Type:</strong> $File.Extension.UpperCase </li>
    <li><strong>Last modified:</strong> $File.LastModified.Nice </li>
</ul>
