So, I promised some documentation “soon” for littleS3. That was 2 months ago. Well, I have finally made good. I have just published a “Getting Started” wiki page to the project site. So far, this document provides some background on the project components, how to deploy it to an application server, and what the configuration files “configure” (along with sample configuration files in the project download section).
I would still like to add some samples of how to use the system to create buckets, add objects, etc. This is very similar to the usage described in the Amazon S3 Developer Guide for the REST API, but there is a bit of a trick since you are using your own application server. In addition to the host name, you may need to include a context path (a servlet notion) to the REST URIs.
