niejn/flask-s3-uploader

A simple project to show how to use Flask with Amazon S3 to enable user's uploaded files to be stored directly to an S3 bucket

Flask S3 Uploader

This is a basic example showing how to use Flask, Flask-WTF and Boto to automatically upload user files to S3, bypassing storage on the server.

Quick Start

Update config.py with your Amazon details.

Other Notes

The most efficient way of handling the downloads is likely to be just upload the file to the local webserver to enable a quick as possible response to the user, then adding the 'upload to S3' task to a message/task queue that runs in the background as the server can manage.
