s3 direct upload restricting file size and type

by

If you are talking about security problem (people uploading huge file to your bucket), yes, You CAN restrict file size with browser-based upload to S3.

Here is an example of the “policy” variable, where “content-length-range” is the key point.

"expiration": "'.date('Y-m-d\TG:i:s\Z', time()+10).'",
"conditions": [
    {"bucket": "xxx"},
    {"acl": "public-read"},
    ["starts-with","xxx",""],
    {"success_action_redirect": "xxx"},
    ["starts-with", "$Content-Type", "image/jpeg"],
    ["content-length-range", 0, 10485760]
]

In this case, if the uploading file size > 10mb, the upload request will be rejected by Amazon.

Of course, before starting the upload process, you should use javascript to check the file size and make some alerts if it does.
