S3 (or Compatible) Object Storage Nephele Adapter
A Nephele adapter that uses an S3 or S3 compatible object storage service as the storage backend.
It is tested using MinIO, which is an S3 compatible object storage server, but it should also work with AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, Digital Ocean Spaces, Ceph, etc. If you encounter any issues with an S3 compatible object store, please file a bug report in the Nephele repository.
Installation
npm i -s @nephele/adapter-s3
Usage
The default export is the adapter, and it's also a named export "Adapter". Instantiate this class, providing an options object, and give that to Nephele as the adapter.
import express from 'express';
import nepheleServer from 'nephele';
import S3Adapter from '@nephele/adapter-s3';
import ExampleAuthenticator from '@nephele/authenticator-example';
const app = express();
const port = 8080;
app.use(
'/',
nepheleServer({
adapter: new S3Adapter({
s3Config: {
endpoint: 'https://mys3endpointurl/',
region: 'us-east-1,
credentials: {
accessKeyId: 'my-s3-access-key',
secretAccessKey: 'my-s3-secret-key-shh-dont-tell',
},
},
bucket: 'MyBucket,
}),
authenticator: new ExampleAuthenticator(),
})
);
app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`Nephele WebDAV server listening on port ${port}`);
});

Properties and Locks
WebDAV properties and locks are stored in the metadata of objects. There is no support for properties or locks on a directory, since S3 doesn't really have "real" directories.
Empty Directories
S3 does not have the concept of an empty directory, since "directories" are just common prefixes among keys. As such, Nephele represents an empty directory in S3 by creating an empty object under the directory with the name ".nepheleempty". It is safe to delete these objects. It is the same as deleting the empty directory.
