Aws-cli: Add support to s3 sync for symlinks as website redirects

Created on 27 Jan 2015 · 3Comments · Source: aws/aws-cli

With the addition of website redirects several years ago, is there any reason not to support syncing symlinked files as a redirect? Symlink directories could also be supported via managing the bucket redirection rules.

Relatedly, the "--website-redirect (string)" option is listed as part of the help output for the sync command, but a single string makes no sense for an operation that can work on an arbitrary number of files. If what I'm looking for is supported via this option somehow, some usage examples are needed.

Good Morning!

We're closing this issue here on GitHub, as part of our migration to UserVoice for feature requests involving the AWS CLI.

This will let us get the most important features to you, by making it easier to search for and show support for the features you care the most about, without diluting the conversation with bug reports.

As a quick UserVoice primer (if not already familiar): after an idea is posted, people can vote on the ideas, and the product team will be responding directly to the most popular suggestions.

We’ve imported existing feature requests from GitHub - Search for this issue there!

And don't worry, this issue will still exist on GitHub for posterity's sake. As it’s a text-only import of the original post into UserVoice, we’ll still be keeping in mind the comments and discussion that already exist here on the GitHub issue.

GitHub will remain the channel for reporting bugs.

Once again, this issue can now be found by searching for the title on: https://aws.uservoice.com/forums/598381-aws-command-line-interface
