New, Lower S3 Pricing

[WhateverYouWant]

Amazon S3 storage prices are lowered up to 22%: All Amazon S3 standard storage and Reduced Redundancy Storage (RRS) customers will see a reduction in their storage costs. In the US Standard region, we are lowering S3 standard storage prices up to 22%, with similar price reductions across all other regions. The new lower prices can be found on the Amazon S3 pricing page.

Now is a great time to add S3 functionality to NodeBB, with the lower prices and all nudge nudge

Ooooh, neat!

Still, we're not made of money... if someone has S3 and wants to donate a couple mb for us to test...

I think there is a one year free trial for aws with the free tier.

@julian I can let you use an S3 bucket, just let me know what you need.

Any progress on this? Lack of S3 support is a show stopped for me. Not even worth installation. The reason being that this is one of the major issues on my server now, lack of disk space for uploads.

[julian]

@djensen47 Yup. @baris revamped the uploader system two days ago so that it uses hooks. Someone (*cough cough*) just needs to write a plugin to upload to S3 now.

Maybe I'll hit up @chris for his credentials

[djensen47]

Was that cough cough for me or you?

Busy week. Not sure if I could dig into a new OSS project.

[julian]

No worries, was mostly talking to anybody in the community, or alternatively, myself.

@CaioDA It's here now: npm install nodebb-plugin-s3-uploads, just released it.
