[Caml-list] [ANN] LibreS3 v0.1: Amazon S3 compatible server

[Török Edwin]

Hi,

LibreS3 is a robust Open Source replacement for the Amazon S3 service,
implementing (a subset of) the S3 REST API.
It is written in a monadic style, currently using Lwt and Ocsigenserver[*] as implementations.

Standard S3 client libraries and tools (for example s3cmd, python-boto, etc.)
can be used to access it.

It uses Skylable SX as the storage backend, which automatically provides data deduplication and replication.

Binary packages(RedHat/CentOS6/Debian Wheezy): http://www.skylable.com/download/#LibreS3

The package is also available on opam:
 $ opam install libres3
To configure:
 $ `opam config var sbin`/libres3_setup
To start the daemon:
 $ `opam config var sbin`/libres3 start
To test it:
 $ s3cmd -c `opam config var etc`/libres3/libres3.sample.s3cfg mb s3://foo

[*]: the server itself is abstracted from the monad implementation, so it should
possible to port it to Cohttp/Lwt or Async.

Minor OPAM tip: you can run a command with the env variables of a particular switch via "opam config exec".  So the above could also be:

$ opam install libres3
$ opam config exec libres3_setup
$ opam config exec libres3 start

best,

[Caml-list] [ANN] LibreS3 v0.2: Amazon S3 compatible server

[Török Edwin]

LibreS3 0.2 was just released.

Source Download: http://cdn.skylable.com/source/libres3-0.2.tar.gz
Binary packages(RedHat/CentOS 6/Fedora 19/Debian Wheezy/Ubuntu Precise): http://www.skylable.com/download/#LibreS3

The package is also available on opam:
 $ opam update
 $ opam install libres3
To configure[*]:
 $ `opam config var sbin`/libres3_setup
To start the daemon:
 $ `opam config var sbin`/libres3 start
To test it:
 $ s3cmd -c `opam config var etc`/libres3/libres3.sample.s3cfg mb s3://foo

Changes in this release include:
 * Fix daemonization at startup, and exit code on shutdown
 * Portability/packaging fixes for FreeBSD/Debian/CentOS
 * Fix pre-signed URL expiration handling
 * Reduce resource usage (number of threads)
 * Other bugfixes and improvements
 * Uses latest upstream version of all packages, should build much faster as it doesn't need to rebuild

[*]: note: it is in sbin for consistency with binary package, so unfortunately a simple 'opam config exec libres3' doesn't work
