04/30/2023, 12:46 PMDoes that require self-hosting? - h

04/30/2023, 12:48 PMIt doesn't require hosting at all, just access to the shell - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:04 PMBut it also supposed to be s3 compatible so I should be able to use it via s3 FTP client? Like Cyberduck? - h
HardAtWork
04/30/2023, 1:05 PMSure, if you want. - e

04/30/2023, 1:07 PMIt would be also helpful if I could just use Wrangler to download multiple files, but it seems to be possible only for single files: https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/objects/download-objects/ - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:10 PMI've tried Cyberduck but with no luck though - h
HardAtWork
04/30/2023, 1:10 PMI think that's just a matter of prioritisation. For Worker,
is the CLI for it. For R2, there are already many very capable S3 CLIs, so it doesn't make sense to make another one that probably won't be as good anyway.wrangler - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:12 PMProblem is it's a bit too technical. I need several people to be able to upload/download files. The more capable dashboard for Cyberduck FTP would be nice. I could do that with AWS s3. - h
HardAtWork
04/30/2023, 1:12 PMThat error looks like it is still trying to hit S3, instead of R2. - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:13 PMbut where do I find server URL for R2? - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:13 PMI guess server is wrong, but I don't know which one to use - h

. Replacehttps://<ACCOUNT_ID>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com
with your CF account ID.ACCOUNT_ID - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:15 PMI actually tried it too but with no luck - e

edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:17 PMany working GUI instead? - c

04/30/2023, 1:17 PMon macos, afraid not 😐 - e

edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:18 PMself hosted right? - c
chientrm
04/30/2023, 1:18 PMevent on Android, you won't find good S3 client 😐 - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:18 PMyeah I guess I could write a script, give some simple UI to my team... but I was looking for some quick solution - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:18 PMwith AWS s3 Cyberduck was perfect - c
chientrm
04/30/2023, 1:19 PMcyberduck, many bugs - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:19 PMgot it...;/ - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:19 PMHope batch downloads will be eventually by r2 web team - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:20 PMI think more people would choose r2 instantaneously. Now it feels a bit of a lock-in, with only single file downloads... - e
edgaras
04/30/2023, 1:33 PMOk I am trying AWS CLI then, what command could help me download whole folder in a bucket?
