The libs3 C Library API for Amazon S3

This library provides an API for using Amazon's S3 service (see http://s3.amazonaws.com). Its design goals are:

To provide a simple and straightforward API for accessing all of S3's functionality
To not require the developer using libs3 to need to know anything about:
- HTTP
- XML
- SSL
In other words, this API is meant to stand on its own, without requiring any implicit knowledge of how S3 services are accessed using HTTP protocols.
To be usable from multithreaded code
To be usable by code which wants to process multiple S3 requests simultaneously from a single thread
To be usable in the simple, straightforward way using sequentialized blocking requests

API details are available here.

Additionally, a utility program named s3 is provided that allows command-line interaction with Amazon S3.

This software is copyrighted by its author, Bryan Ischo, and is released under the terms of the GNU GPL version 3. See COPYING for details.

The most recently released version is 2.0. Notice that this is a major release, with an incompatible API from the 1.x release series. The major difference is that API parameters for specifying the hostname of the S3 host to connect to are now included.

You can download this version in several formats from this web site (sorry, prebuilt packages are no longer available, you'll have to build it yourself):
