Custom Plugin

You can create your custom pluggable for Storage. This may be helpful if you want to integrate your app with a custom storage backend.

To create a plugin implement the StorageProvider interface:

import { Storage, StorageProvider } from 'aws-amplify';
export default class MyStorageProvider implements StorageProvider {
// category and provider name
static category = 'Storage';
static providerName = 'MyStorage';
// you need to implement these seven methods
// configure your provider
configure(config: object): object;
// copy object, optional
copy?(
src: { key: string; identityId: string; level: 'public' | 'protected' | 'private' },
dest: { key: string; level: 'public' | 'protected' | 'private' },
options?
): Promise<any>
// get object/pre-signed url from storage
get(key: string, options?): Promise<String|Object>
// upload storage object
put(key: string, object, options?): Promise<Object>
// remove object
remove(key: string, options?): Promise<any>
// list objects for the path
list(path, options?): Promise<any>
// return 'Storage';
getCategory(): string;
// return the name of you provider
getProviderName(): string;

You can now register your pluggable:

// add the plugin
Storage.addPluggable(new MyStorageProvider());
// get the plugin
Storage.getPluggable(MyStorageProvider.providerName);
// remove the plugin
Storage.removePluggable(MyStorageProvider.providerName);
// send configuration into Amplify
Storage.configure({
[MyStorageProvider.providerName]: {
// My Storage provider configuration
}
});

You can pass in your custom provider class to the Storage function to get Typescript support:

class MyStorageProvider implements StorageProvider {
...
get(key: string, config: { config1: number; }): Promise<{ key: string }>;
}
// will automatically use the return type from the provider's function signature
const getResult: Promise<{ key: string }> = Storage.get<MyStorageProvider>('key', {
provider: 'MyStorage',
config1: 123,
});

The default provider (Amazon S3) is in use when you call Storage.put( ) unless you specify a different provider: Storage.put(key, object, {provider: 'MyStorage'}).
