)A character string containing an HTTP verb, defaulting to “GET”.
A character string with the name of the bucket, or an object of class “s3_bucket”. If the latter and a region can be inferred from the bucket object attributes, then that region is used instead of region.
A character string with the name of the object to put in the bucket (sometimes called the object or 'key name' in the AWS documentation.)
Any query arguments, passed as a named list of key-value pairs.
A list of request headers for the REST call.
A character string containing request body data.
If verb = "GET", this is, optionally, an argument like write_disk to write the result directly to disk.
If set to a function and verb = "GET" is used then the output is passed in chunks as a raw vector in the first argument to this function, allowing streaming output. Note that write_disk and write_fn are mutually exclusive.
A logical indicating whether to use AWS transfer acceleration, which can produce significant speed improvements for cross-country transfers. Acceleration only works with buckets that do not have dots in bucket name.
A logical indicating whether to use “dual stack” requests, which can resolve to either IPv4 or IPv6. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/dual-stack-endpoints.html.
A logical indicating whether to return the response as is, or parse and return as a list. Default is TRUE.
A logical indicating whether to check the value of region against the apparent bucket region. This is useful for avoiding (often confusing) out-of-region errors. Default is FALSE.
A character string specifying either “path” (the default), or “virtual”-style S3 URLs.
A character string specifying the base hostname for the request (it is a misnomer, the actual URL is constructed from this name, region and use_https flag. There is no need to set this, as it is provided only to generalize the package to (potentially) support S3-compatible storage on non-AWS servers. The easiest way to use S3-compatible storage is to set the AWS_S3_ENDPOINT environment variable. When using non-AWS servers, you may also want to set region="".
A logical indicating whether to be verbose. Default is given by options("verbose").
A logical indicating whether to show a progress bar for downloads and uploads. Default is given by options("verbose").
A character string containing the AWS region. Ignored if region can be inferred from bucket. If missing, an attempt is made to locate it from credentials. Defaults to “us-east-1” if all else fails. Should be set to "" when using non-AWS endpoints that don't include regions (and base_url must be set).
A character string containing an AWS Access Key ID. If missing, defaults to value stored in environment variable AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID.
A character string containing an AWS Secret Access Key. If missing, defaults to value stored in environment variable AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
Optionally, a character string containing an AWS temporary Session Token. If missing, defaults to value stored in environment variable AWS_SESSION_TOKEN.
Optionally, a logical indicating whether to use HTTPS requests. Default is TRUE.
Additional arguments passed to an HTTP request function. such as GET.
the S3 response, or the relevant error.
This is mostly an internal function for executing API requests. In almost all cases, users do not need to access this directly.
