aws-s3-mv: Move a file from local to a specified bucket.
$ aws s3 mv ${path-to-local_file} s3://${bucket_name}/${path-to-remote_file}
try on your machine

This command is used to move a file from a local location to a remote location in Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service).

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • aws s3 mv: This is the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) command to move a file in S3.
  • ${path-to-local_file}: This is a placeholder for the local file's path on your local system. You need to specify the actual path to the file you want to move.
  • s3://${bucket_name}/${path-to-remote_file}: This is the destination path in the S3 bucket where the file will be moved.
    • ${bucket_name}: This is a placeholder for the name of your S3 bucket. You need to replace it with the actual bucket name.
    • ${path-to-remote_file}: This is a placeholder for the desired path and filename for the file in the S3 bucket. You need to specify the actual path and filename you want for the remote file.

So, by executing this command, the specified local file will be moved to the specified location in the S3 bucket.
