Install:

npm install --save s3

Usage:

// configure
var s3 = require('s3');
// createClient allows any options that knox does.
var client = s3.createClient({
  key: "your s3 key",
  secret: "your s3 secret",
  bucket: "your s3 bucket"
});

// upload a file to s3
var uploader = client.upload("some/local/file", "some/remote/file");
uploader.on('error', function(err) {
  console.error("unable to upload:", err.stack);
});
uploader.on('progress', function(amountDone, amountTotal) {
  console.log("progress", amountDone, amountTotal);
});
uploader.on('end', function(url) {
  console.log("file available at", url);
});

// download a file from s3
var downloader = client.download("some/remote/file", "some/local/file");
downloader.on('error', function(err) {
  console.error("unable to download:", err.stack);
});
downloader.on('progress', function(amountDone, amountTotal) {
  console.log("progress", amountDone, amountTotal);
});
downloader.on('end', function() {
  console.log("done");
});

// instantiate from existing knox client
var knoxClient = knox.createClient(options);
var client = s3.fromKnox(knoxClient);

This module uses knox as a backend. If you want to do more low-level things, use knox for those things. It's ok to use both.

Testing:
