Check local files vs what's on S3, and upload any that have changed.

s3update.py

#!/usr/bin/env python

# Compare a file on S3 to see if we have the latest version
# If not, upload it and invalidate CloudFront

import fnmatch
import os
import boto
import pprint
import re
import hashlib
from boto.s3.key import Key

# Where source is checked out
SOURCE_DIR  = '/local/path/to/source/code'
BUCKET_NAME = 'my-s3-bucket-name'

# Connect to S3 and get bucket
conn = boto.connect_s3()
bucket = conn.get_bucket(BUCKET_NAME)

# Shortcut to MD5
def get_md5(filename):
  f = open(filename, 'rb')
  m = hashlib.md5()
  while True:
    data = f.read(10240)
    if len(data) == 0:
        break
    m.update(data)
  return m.hexdigest()

def to_uri(filename):
  return re.sub(SOURCE_DIR, '', f)

# Assemble a list of all files from SOURCE_DIR
files = []
for root, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(SOURCE_DIR):
  for filename in filenames:
    files.append(os.path.join(root, filename))

# Compare them to S3 checksums
files_to_upload = []
for f in files:
  uri = to_uri(f)
  key = bucket.get_key(uri)
  if key is None:
    # new file, upload
    files_to_upload.append(f)
  else:
    # check MD5
    md5  = get_md5(f)
    etag = key.etag.strip('"').strip("'")
    if etag != md5:
      print(f + ": " + md5 + " != " + etag)
      files_to_upload.append(f)
            
# Upload + invalidate the ones that are different
for f in files_to_upload:
  uri = to_uri(f)
  key = Key(bucket)
  key.key = uri
  key.set_contents_from_filename(f)
  # CloudFront invalidation code goes here

Use the s3 file header, something like:
head=self.s3.head_object(Bucket=bucket, Key=path)
#HEAD: {u'AcceptRanges': 'bytes', u'ContentType': 'binary/octet-stream', 'ResponseMetadata': {'HTTPStatusCode': 200, 'HostId': 'j0KrohvVeb8gcs3TIjw2j4d/39JU8h3CS4sUe9IndL6RYHDy8Ruc1DUvMto+4/rxVP9f/wxMGHU=', 'RequestId': 'C2819F65ACE2FD7F'}, u'LastModified': datetime.datetime(2017, 3, 15, 12, 54, 5 , tzinfo=tzutc()), u'ContentLength': 441296, u'ETag': '"3c1952332ae963529293922eebde44dc"', u'Metadata': {}}
lastmodified=head['LastModified']

Thanks, it works. But why does bash command: openssl md5 -binary PATH/TO/FILE | base64 give different result? . For my case each of files is smaller than 5GB. Command is from aws docs ( https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/data-integrity-s3/ )

Hello,
I am using this python script to upload files that have changed or newly created from local folder to S3 folder. The script does not work. It just failed at getting bucket name. I am using boto with python2.7. Any help much appreciated.
Many thanks.

Here is the error
Traceback (most recent call last): File "s3update.py", line 20, in <module> bucket = conn.get_bucket(BUCKET_NAME) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/boto/s3/connection.py", line 506, in get_bucket return self.head_bucket(bucket_name, headers=headers) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/boto/s3/connection.py", line 539, in head_bucket raise err boto.exception.S3ResponseError: S3ResponseError: 403 Forbidden

@viatcheslavmogilevsky if you're on MacOS, Apple rolls their own brand of OpenSSL as of this post, and it may be slightly different than what would be used on an actual Linux VM/Container. If you're using MacOS

did you consider using on MD5Sum tag on s3 objects -- seems to me a cleaner solution if you have control over the s3 object upload
