This plugin allows the user to define AWS access keys and allows other plugins to hook into it and use the AWS SDK that’s included.
The plan was for this plugin to be a dependency of several plugins and all could use the same AWS SDK. We realized however that there are <a href="https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-offload-s3-1-6-released/?utm_campaign=WP%2BOffload%2BS3&utm_source=wordpress.org&utm_medium=free%2Bplugin%2Blisting&utm_content=AWS" rel="nofollow ugc">problems with this idea</a> and we’ve taken <a href="https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-offload-s3-1-6-released/?utm_campaign=WP%2BOffload%2BS3&utm_source=wordpress.org&utm_medium=free%2Bplugin%2Blisting&utm_content=AWS" rel="nofollow ugc">another approach</a>.
This plugin was used by our plugins (<a href="https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-offload-s3/?utm_campaign=WP%2BOffload%2BS3&utm_source=wordpress.org&utm_medium=free%2Bplugin%2Blisting&utm_content=AWS" rel="nofollow ugc">WP Offload S3</a> and <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/amazon-s3-and-cloudfront/" rel="ugc">WP Offload S3 Lite</a>) but it is almost certainly used by other plugins we’re not aware of. So although it is no longer needed for our plugins, we’ll leave it here for others.
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>PHP version 5.3.3 or greater</li>
<li>PHP cURL library 7.16.2 or greater</li>
<li>cURL compiled with OpenSSL and zlib</li>
<li>curl_multi_exec enabled</li>
</ul>

Amazon Web Services

I am very impressed with this plugin, and I am using only the free version along with its companion WP Offload S3. I like how they are transparent - you don't even realize it is there and behaves as if you were saving everything locally. There have been a few bugs here and there, but the team addresses them quickly.



Fantastic - transparent functionality

Takes a bit of tweaking, but all around does what it advertises.



Works Well Enough

Houses the Amazon Web Services (AWS) PHP SDK v2 libraries and manages access keys.

Kevin Burkholder

<h4>Simple AWS</h4>
This extension, when enabled, provides easy access to Amazon Web Services (AWS) from other plugins, extensions and custom functions through the <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-php/" rel="nofollow ugc">AWS SDK for PHP</a>.
From the settings page, enter your AWS Region and your IAM account credentials, then access AWS programmatically using the provided methods and filters along with the AWS SDK classes and methods.

</code></pre>
<h4>Examples</h4>
<pre><code>`php
</code></pre>

 ‘version’ => ‘latest’, 
 ‘region’ => apply_filters(‘SimpleAWS_region’,”), 
 ‘credentials’ => [

<h4>Simple AWS S3 Events</h4>
The Simple AWS S3 Events extension is intended to facilitate events through AWS EventBridge, passing data from and to WordPress/WooCommerce … but you may find other uses.
<ol>
<li>
A webhook delivery URL is created to be used by WooCommerce to send data (order, product, or coupon) as a file to an AWS S3 bucket.
</li>
<li>
An EventBridge Target URL is created to accepts data from AWS EventBridge derived from the file saved to the S3 bucket.
</li>
</ol>
These 2 features may be used by the same WordPress installation (though I’m not sure why) or by different, even several, installations to route WooCommerce data to other destinations.
For example:
<pre>
Site1 \ / EventBridge Target -> Site5
Site2 -> - WC Webhook Delivery -> [ Site4 ] -> - S3 Bucket -> EventBridge Target -> Site6
Site3 / \ EventBridge Target -> Site7
</pre>
One or many WooCommerce sites can use the WebHook Delivery URL of another site to send orders through that site and then on to an S3 bucket as individual files.
EventBridge can be configured to deliver S3 files to one (or many) WordPress sites using the EventBridge Target URL.
This extension creates the APIs and formats the data to be sent to or received from AWS. To process data beyond what this extension does, you may use any of these actions: 
 `php 
/** 
 * action _eventbridge_<object|order|product|coupon> 
 * @param object $file – S3 file object ($file->get(‘Body’) to get contents) 
 * @param array $meta – EventBridge API metadata 
 * @param string $type – object type (order|product|coupon) 
 * @param string $name – object file name 
 */ 
add_action( “eacDoojigger_eventbridge_object”, ‘my_eventbridge_action’, 10, 4 ); 
add_action( “eacDoojigger_eventbridge_order”, ‘my_eventbridge_action’, 10, 4 ); 
add_action( “eacDoojigger_eventbridge_product”, ‘my_eventbridge_action’, 10, 4 ); 
add_action( “eacDoojigger_eventbridge_coupon”, ‘my_eventbridge_action’, 10, 4 );
function my_EventBridge_action($file, $payload, $type, $fileName) { 
 $data = $file->get(‘Body’); 
} 
 `
WooCommerce Setup
WooCommerce Webhooks can be added for Orders, Products, or Coupons. When creating a new webhook (WooCommerce -> Settings -> Advanced -> Webhooks) use the <code>Webhook Delivery URL</code> and <code>Webhook Secret</code> provided by this extension.
S3 Setup
This extension, by default, creates a new S3 bucket named <code>wc-webhook-<your-site-name></code>. To override this or use an existing bucket… 
 <code>php 
add_action( "eacDoojigger_eventbridge_bucketname", function($bucketName) { 
 return 'my-s3-bucket'; 
} );</code>
S3 bucket filenames are <code>wc_<order|product|coupon>_##.json</code>, e.g. <code>wc_order_300.json</code>. To override the file name used… 
 <code>php 
add_action( "eacDoojigger_eventbridge_filename", function($fileName, $objectType, $objectId) { 
 return 'my_s3_' . $objectType . '_' . $objectId . '.json'; 
},10,3 );</code>
When changing the bucket name and/or file name, the Event pattern shown below will also have to be changed.
EventBridge Setup
There are several steps and configurations needed to get EventBridge working properly. Below are the key components needed for proper configuration, other options may be set to your preferences/needs.
In AWS EventBridge:
<ol>
<li>EventBridge -> Connections -> Create Connection</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>API type: Public</li>
<li>Authorization type: Basic</li>
<li>Username: a WordPress user</li>
<li>Password: the application password for the user</li>
</ul>
alternatively
<ul>
<li>Authorization type: API Key</li>
<li>API key name: X-RestAPI-Token</li>
<li>Value: the Webhook Secret provided by this extension</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li>EventBridge -> API Destinations -> Create API destination</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>API destination endpoint: The EventBridge Target URL provided by this extension.</li>
<li>HTTP method: POST or PUT</li>
<li>Connection type: Use an existing connection (select the connection created in step 1)</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li>EventBridge -> Rules -> Create rule (you may create 1 rule for all objects or a single rule for each object type)</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>Event bus: default</li>
<li>Rule type: Rule with an event pattern</li>
<li>Events, Event source: Other</li>
<li>Event pattern, Creation method: Custom pattern (JSON editor)</li>
<li>Event pattern: (defines the beginning part, or prefix, of the bucket name and file names) 
<code>json 
{ 
"detail": { 
 "bucket": { 
 "name": [{ 
 "prefix": "wc-webhook-" 
 }] 
 }, 
 "object": { 
 "key": [{ 
 "prefix": "wc_order_" 
 }] 
 } 
} 
}</code></li>
<li>Target 1, Target types: EventBridge API destination</li>
<li>API destination: Use an existing API destination (select the API destination created in step 2)</li>
</ul>
You can add other targets, such as CloudWatch for logging, other WordPress sites using this extension, or other services that can ingest this data. This extension provides logging (debug level) to expose detailed data structures.
