Amazon S3

Using Binder with Amazon S3 is just as simple as using it with your local filesystem.

To set it up, all you need to do is get your access keys from the AWS Management Console, and configure them in the Binder Module settings.

Getting your AWS Keys

Log into your AWS account and go to the AWS Management Console from the top nav. Click the link for Security Credentials.

Create a new key and make a note of the Access Key and Secret. You'll need them to for the Binder settings.

Note: You can reuse an existing key pair if you'd prefer

Adding your AWS Keys to Binder

In your site's control panel, visit the Binder Module settings view. Simply enable the Amazon S3 option and fill in your settings. You'll need your Access Key, Secret Key, S3 Bucket Name and optionally a Default Bucket Path.

Setting up your Binder fields

With S3 enabled, you'll see a new option in your fieldtype settings. Simply select the Amazon S3 option, and set the upload path for the field.

That's all there is to it! Uploads will now be saved directly to your Amazon S3 bucket.
