rs

rs (stands for Remote Storage) is a tool for dealing with cloud storage platforms such as AWS S3. It offers the following benefits over using the backends' APIs directly:

• It provides a common interface for different backend APIs.
• It automatically sets the right path for a given file based on the OPERATION so that users don't have to remember path conventions manually.
• Its API is more resilient to breaking changes since arguments can be adapted over time according to our needs.

Try rs --help for guidance on how to use it.

See https://github.com/paritytech/release-engineering/pull/113 for the initial concept and motivations.
