local chilkat = require("chilkat")

-- This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

local http = chilkat.Http.new()

-- Insert your access key here:
http.aws_access_key = "ABQXXABC83ABCDEFVQXX"

-- Insert your secret key here:
http.aws_secret_key = "XXXXYYYYabcdABCD12345678xxxxyyyyzzzz"

local bucketName = "chilkattestbucket"

local objectName = "helloWorld.txt"

-- The charset indicates the character encoding to be used.
-- Internal to the S3_UploadString method, the characters
-- are converted to this encoding prior to uploading.
local charset = "utf-8"

-- The Content-Type has the form  type/subtype, such as application/pdf, application/json, image/jpeg, etc.
-- See Explaining Content-Types
local contentType = "text/plain"

local objectContent = "Hello World!"

-- Upload the string.
-- This creates an object named "helloWorld.txt" in the
-- bucket "chilkattestbucket" containing the text "Hello World!";
local success = http:s3_upload_string(objectContent, charset, contentType, bucketName, objectName)

if not success then
    print(http.last_error_text)
