S3 Upload confirmation

You can use defineStorage and defineFunction to create a function trigger to confirm uploading a file.

To get started, install the @types/aws-lambda package, which contains types for different kinds of Lambda handlers, events, and responses.

Terminal
npm add --save @types/aws-lambda

Update your storage definition to define the onUpload trigger as below:

amplify/storage/resource.ts
import { defineFunction, defineStorage } from "@aws-amplify/backend";
export const storage = defineStorage({
name: 'myProjectFiles',
triggers: {
onUpload: defineFunction({
entry: './on-upload-handler.ts'
})
}
});

Next, create a file named amplify/storage/on-upload-handler.ts and use the following code to log the object keys whenever an object is uploaded to the bucket. You can add your custom logic to this function as needed.

amplify/storage/on-upload-handler.ts
import type { S3Handler } from 'aws-lambda';
export const handler: S3Handler = async (event) => {
const objectKeys = event.Records.map((record) => record.s3.object.key);
console.log(`Upload handler invoked for objects [${objectKeys.join(', ')}]`);
};

Now, when you deploy your backend, this function will be invoked whenever an object is uploaded to the bucket.
