Requirements

If using outside of the AWS Serverless Application Repository:

• AWS CLI already configured with Administrator permission
• NodeJS 12.x installed

Installation Instructions

1. Create an AWS account if you do not already have one and login.
2. Go to the app's page on the Serverless Application Repository and click "Deploy"

Using this Application

• This application creates an API Gateway endpoint where your application can request a pre-signed URL to upload JPG objects to an S3 bucket. Once the API returns the URL, your application can PUT the object data to this URL to complete the upload.
• This application is for educational purposes and does not provide any throttling on the API Gateway endpoint. For production usage, you should apply throttling to your API resources.
• You can modify this application to upload other types of object.

How it works

• Deploy this serverless application and take a note of the API endpoint.
• Invoke the API to receive a pre-signed URL for uploading a JPG file. Use this pre-signed URL to complete the upload.
• For a live example of this, see this Fiddle. View the browser console to see logs of how the Fiddle is interacting with the API Gateway and presigned URL.
