NAME

       s3rm - Delete Amazon AWS S3 items

SYNOPSIS

       s3rm [options] [bucket/item ...]

        Options:
          --access-key    AWS Access Key ID
          --secret-key    AWS Secret Access Key
        Environment:
          AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
          AWS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET

OPTIONS

       --help  Print a brief help message and exits.

       --man   Prints the manual page and exits.

       --verbose
               Print a message for each created bucket.

       --access-key and --secret-key
               Specify the "AWS Access Key Identifiers" for the AWS account.  --access-key is the
               "Access Key ID", and --secret-key is the "Secret Access Key".  These are
               effectively the "username" and "password" to the AWS account, and should be kept
               confidential.

               The access keys MUST be specified, either via these command line parameters, or
               via the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables.

               Specifying them on the command line overrides the environment variables.

       --secure
               Uses SSL/TLS HTTPS to communicate with the AWS service, instead of HTTP.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET
               Specify the "AWS Access Key Identifiers" for the AWS account.  AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
               contains the "Access Key ID", and AWS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET contains the "Secret
               Access Key".  These are effectively the "username" and "password" to the AWS
               service, and should be kept confidential.

               The access keys MUST be specified, either via these environment variables, or via
               the --access-key and --secret-key command line parameters.

               If the command line parameters are set, they override these environment variables.

CONFIGURATION FILE

       The configuration options will be read from the file "~/.s3-tools" if it exists.  The
       format is the same as the command line options with one option per line.  For example, the
       file could contain:

           --access-key <AWS access key>
           --secret-key <AWS secret key>
           --secure

       This example configuration file would specify the AWS access keys and that a secure
       connection using HTTPS should be used for all communications.

DESCRIPTION

       Delete items in the Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3).

BUGS

       Report bugs to Mark Atwood mark@fallenpegasus.com.

       Occasionally the S3 service will randomly fail for no externally apparent reason.  When
       that happens, this tool should retry, with a delay and a backoff.

       Access to the S3 service can be authenticated with a X.509 certificate, instead of via the
       "AWS Access Key Identifiers".  This tool should support that.

       It might be useful to be able to specify the "AWS Access Key Identifiers" in the user's
       "~/.netrc" file.  This tool should support that.

       Some errors and warnings are very "Perl-ish", and can be confusing.
