[FEATURE] Direct download/playback from S3 #108

Open Recontaminated opened 2 years ago

Recontaminated commented 2 years ago

Description

I don't know if this is possible but to save bandwidth on the host, is there a way a feature could be implemented where uploads go directly to S3 using a one time token or something, then played back directly from s3, this way the internet speed of the Ass host doesn't become a bottleneck.

Uploads I wouldn't be able to do due to multiple S3 limitations, plus that would need a modified local installation of ShareX or some other software.

For loading, however, I could probably add an option to redirect the /direct path on each resource to the raw S3 URL. Not sure how permissions would work but probably wouldn't be much of an issue.

Adding myself to this issue as interested. I know with Digital Ocean S3 this shouldn't be an issue. I can include reference URLs that are for the direct URL in Discord if you'd like.

This is even with disallowing indexing of the S3 bucket

@Recontaminated @NullOrNaN Would one of you mind testing out the s3redirect option on https://github.com/tycrek/ass/tree/s3-redirect? For reference see #161

I'll check it out this weekend. Looks promising.
