| Using Amazon S3 with Dojo has the following prerequisites: |
| * You must be signed up to use Amazon S3. You can sign up for Amazon S3 at http://aws.amazon.com/s3. |
| * Use the provided proxy (/dojox/rpc/s3/proxy.php) with PHP 5. |
| * proxy.php requires the following modules: |
| o Crypt_HMAC |
| o HTTP_Request |
| |
| |
| To use S3 from Dojo, you need a proxy. You can use the provided proxy example file by renaming |
| proxy.example-php to proxy.php and then you must enter your Amazon access key and secret access key |
| into the proxy.php file on line 3 and 4: |
| |
| $accessKey = "access key"; |
| $secretAccessKey = "secret access key"; |
| |
| You then use the Dojo RPC service with the "PROXIED-PATH" envelope: |
| |
| dojo.require("dojox.rpc.Service"); |
| dojo.require("dojox.rpc.ProxiedPath"); |
| var s3Buckets = new dojox.rpc.Service({ |
| target:"http://s3.amazonaws.com/", |
| proxyUrl:"../s3/proxy.php", // the path to the proxy |
| transport:"REST", |
| envelope:"PROXIED-PATH", |
| contentType:"application/json", |
| services:{ |
| myBucket:{ |
| target:"myBucket", |
| parameters:[{type:"string"}] |
| } |
| } |
| }); |
| |
| |
| To use the S3 as a Dojo data store you can use the S3JsonRestStore module. First setup an RPC service |
| as shown above and then pass the RPC service to the S3JsonRestStore: |
| |
| dojo.require("dojox.data.S3JsonRestStore"); |
| s3Store = new dojox.data.S3JsonRestStore({service:s3Buckets.myBucket}); // and create a store for it |
| |
| You can then use the s3Store as a normal Read/Write Dojo Data store. |
