Amazon S3 URL Formatter and Parser

This small and dependency-free library is designed to help you check, format and parse Amazon S3 URLs. Please note that this library does only rudimentary URL validation on the structure of the URL. It currently does not validate bucket names and object keys against the rules defined in the AWS documentation.

Amazon S3 URL Formats

Amazon S3 supports a combination of different styles:

Virtual-hosted-style and Path-style

The difference between these two styles is how the bucket name is included in the URL, either as part of the hostname or as part of the pathname.

[!WARNING] Path-style URLs will be discontinued in the future See Amazon S3 backward compatibility for more information.

Regional and Legacy

The difference between these two styles is if the region is included in the URL.

[!WARNING]
Only some regions support legacy-style URLs. See Amazon S3 backward compatibility for more information.

Protocol S3 and HTTPS

The choice whether to use s3:// or https:// depends on the client used to access the S3 bucket.

Global

The global format s3://<bucket>/<key> is the S3 URI that is used by the AWS management console. This format is only available with the s3:// protocol.

Installation

# npm
npm install amazon-s3-url

# yarn
yarn add amazon-s3-url

# pnpm
pnpm add amazon-s3-url

Usage

The library defines the types S3Object and S3UrlFormat and it exports three functions formatS3Url, parseS3Url and isS3Url.

Type S3Object

This type represents an S3 object and has the properties bucket and key. The region property is optional and can be used to specify the region of the S3 bucket.

type S3Object = {
  bucket: string;
  key: string;
  region?: string;
};

const s3Object: S3Object = {
  bucket: 'bucket',
  key: 'key',
  region: 'us-west-1'
};

Type S3UrlFormat

This type represents the format of an S3 URL.

The format has the structure <protocol>-<endpoint>-<style> with the following values:

type S3UrlFormat = 
  | "s3-global-path"
  | "s3-legacy-path"
  | "s3-legacy-virtual-host"
  | "https-legacy-path"
  | "https-legacy-virtual-host"
  | "s3-region-path"
  | "s3-region-virtual-host"
  | "https-region-path"
  | "https-region-virtual-host";

ESM and CommonJS

This library is written in TypeScript and is published with ESM and CommonJS support. That means you can import or require the library in your project.

// ESM
import { formatS3Url } from 'amazon-s3-url';

// CommonJS
const { formatS3Url } = require('amazon-s3-url');

Function formatS3Url

This function takes an s3Object and an optional format and returns a formatted URL string. The format parameter is optional and defaults to s3-global-path.

Signature:

function formatS3Url(s3Object: S3Object, format?: S3UrlFormat): string;

Example:

import { formatS3Url, S3Object } from 'amazon-s3-url';

// s3://bucket/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object);

// s3://bucket/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "s3-global-path");

// s3://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "s3-legacy-path");

// s3://bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "s3-legacy-virtual-host");

// https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "https-legacy-path");

// https://bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "https-legacy-virtual-host");

// s3://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "s3-region-path");

// s3://bucket.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "s3-region-virtual-host");

// https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "https-region-path");

// https://bucket.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/key
const s3Url = formatS3Url(s3Object, "https-region-virtual-host");

Function parseS3Url

This function takes an S3 URL string and returns an S3Object or throws an error if the URL is invalid. The format parameter is optional and can be used to specify the expected format of the URL. If the format is not specified, the function will try to parse the URL in all supported formats.

Signature:

function parseS3Url(s3Url: string, format?: S3UrlFormat): S3Object;

Example:

import { parseS3Url } from 'amazon-s3-url';

// s3-global-path
const s3Object = parseS3Url('s3://bucket/key');

// s3-legacy-path
const s3Object = parseS3Url('s3://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/key');

// s3-legacy-virtual-host
const s3Object = parseS3Url('s3://bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/key');

// https-legacy-path
const s3Object = parseS3Url('https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/key');

// https-legacy-virtual-host
const s3Object = parseS3Url('https://bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/key');

// s3-region-path
const s3Object = parseS3Url('s3://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/key');

// s3-region-virtual-host
const s3Object = parseS3Url('s3://bucket.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/key');

// https-region-path
const s3Object = parseS3Url('https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/key');

// https-region-virtual-host
const s3Object = parseS3Url('https://bucket.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/key');

Function isS3Url

This function takes a string and returns a boolean indicating whether the string is a valid S3 URL. The format parameter is optional and can be used to specify the expected format of the URL. If the format is not specified, the function will try to parse the URL in all supported formats.

Signature:

function isS3Url(s3Url: string, format?: S3UrlFormat): boolean;

Example:

import { isS3Url } from 'amazon-s3-url';

// s3-global-path
isS3Url('s3://bucket/key');

// s3-legacy-path
isS3Url('s3://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/key');

// s3-legacy-virtual-host
isS3Url('s3://bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/key');

// https-legacy-path
isS3Url('https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/key');

// https-legacy-virtual-host
isS3Url('https://bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/key');

// s3-region-path
isS3Url('s3://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/key');

// s3-region-virtual-host
isS3Url('s3://bucket.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/key');

// https-region-path
isS3Url('https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/key');

// https-region-virtual-host
isS3Url('https://bucket.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/key');
