aws-s3-cp: Copy a specific S3 object into another bucket keeping the original name.
$ aws s3 cp s3://${bucket_name1}/${filename} s3://${bucket_name2}
try on your machine
This command uses the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) to copy a file from one S3 bucket to another.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
aws s3
- This specifies the AWS S3 service for the command.cp
- This is the "copy" command of the AWS CLI, used to perform the copy operation between S3 buckets.s3://${bucket_name1}/${filename}
- This is the source file location. It uses the S3 URI format, where${bucket_name1}
represents the name of the source bucket and${filename}
represents the name of the file to be copied.s3://${bucket_name2}
- This is the destination bucket. It uses the same S3 URI format, where${bucket_name2}
represents the name of the target bucket.
When you execute this command, it will copy the file (specified by filename
) from the source bucket (bucket_name1
) to the destination bucket (bucket_name2
) in AWS S3.
