Calling S3.delete from server side

[Lepozepo]

@luckyvs1 no worries, that is definitely ok :D hope to enable server side uploads and functions again soon (for the very late christmas update lol)

Also @luckyvs1 you can use 3 ticks to format your code ^_^

@Lepozepo, can you confirm if this is a valid solution I have tested it and it works, but want to know if there are any known issues, as I read the server side upload had some errors (re: your comments in #148).

In place of S3.delete, on the server side I would use the S3.knox.deleteFile, so the code is the following:

S3.knox.deleteFile(
  relative_path,
  function(err,response) {
    if(response) {
      console.log('Success, file has been deleted');
    } else {
      console.log('Unable to delete, please try again later');
    }
  }
);

I can't seem to markdown the code with my formatting intact, so apologies for the poorly formatted code.

is there any update on server side upload?

@harvinder34 I've been super disconnected from the Meteor community lately, I'll see if I can fit some time into upgrading some of these super old meteor packages next week with some of the new work I have on npm. If you really need server side uploads immediately, you might find it easier to use the aws-sdk package from AWS directly. Just do an npm i aws-sdk in your project and follow AWS's documentation for uploading server files.
