Docs for how to use S3 over GridStore?

[gateway]

I see in the depo s3 adaptor but no real docs on how to set this up to work. I know their is a FilesAdapter.js, do I just change these lines.

var GridStoreAdapter = require('./GridStoreAdapter');

var adapter = GridStoreAdapter;

to

var S3Adapter = require('./S3Adapter');

var adapter = S3Adapter;

Then looking at the S3Adaptor code I see various keys that need to be set?

Could we just get a small writeup on this? Also will their be an option on data migration to move files to a s3 bucket instead?

You can set the FilesAdapter to use S3Adapter when you initialize the ParseServer like this

var api = new ParseServer({
  databaseURI: databaseUri || 'mongodb://localhost:27017/dev',
  cloud: process.env.CLOUD_CODE_MAIN || __dirname + '/cloud/main.js',
  appId: process.env.APP_ID || 'myAppId',
  masterKey: process.env.MASTER_KEY || 'myMasterKey',
  clientKey: process.env.CLIENT_KEY || 'myClientKey',
  restAPIKEY: process.env.RESTAPI_KEY || 'myRestKey',
  fileKey: process.env.FILE_KEY || 'myFileKey',
  filesAdapter: new S3Adapter(
    process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY,
    process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
    {bucket: process.env.AWS_BUCKET_NAME, bucketPrefix: "", directAccess: true}
  ),
  pushAdapter: new SNSAdapter(
    process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY,
    process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
    {region: "us-east-1"}
  )
});

@oclef thanks, have you tested it and do pffile saves go to s3 and a reference url goes in the database?

[oclef]

Yes, I've tested. files goes to s3 and reference goes to mongo

[gateway]

@oclef thanks, I feel a bit stoopid right now maybe its due to me coding all way and switching between js, php and python but where do I put my aws keys in.. ?

Also I just saw this when trying to deploy the latest parse example..

@gateway You need to import the S3Adapter.

var S3Adapter = require('parse-server').S3Adapter;
var ParseServer = require('parse-server').ParseServer;
...
filesAdapter: new S3Adapter({
    /** options **/
});
...

An adapter I wrote to use AWS SNS as the push server. I've since setup my
own push server so I don't use it anymore. You can find it here

Predestination was doomed from the start.

@oclef Looks useful. Did you consider making a pull request? I haven't tried to incorporate ParsePushAdapter which I just looked into, but this looks easier.

[oclef]

Actually, this is what you will want to use

Looks like it was forked a bit behind 2.0.8 so it's gonna take some merging.

[oclef]

It worked, but it doesn't really conform with the architecture. TBH, it's better to just setup your own push server using the latest release.
