Plugin for deploying Hexo sites to Amazon S3.

This is an alternative to the existing hexo-deployer-s3 and hexo-deployer-s3-cloudfront plugins that has been written from the ground up to use the new AWS SDK v3.

npm install -S @string-bean/hexo-deployer-aws-s3

Add the following section to your Hexo _config.yml:

deploy:
  type: aws-s3
  region: us-east-1
  bucket: example-bucket

And then deploy using hexo deploy.

After deploying to S3 the plugin can optionally invalidate a CloudFront distribution to force a cache refresh. To do this, add the CloudFront distribution ID to your Hexo config:

deploy:
  type: aws-s3
  region: us-east-1
  bucket: example-bucket
  cloudfront_distribution: EXAMPLE123

Adding S3 webpage redirects is supported via entries in the Hexo config and via page front-matter.

⚠️ Any existing webpage redirects configured for the S3 bucket will get overwritten by the redirects generated by this plugin.

With a permalink setting of :year/:month/:day/:title/ and the following front-matter:

---
title: Exciting Post
date: 2022-01-01 12:00:00
redirect_from: old-path.html
---

A redirect from old-path.html to 2022/01/01/exciting-post will be generated.

Additionally, redirects can be specified directly in the Hexo config:

deploy:
  type: aws-s3
  redirects:
    'old.html': 'new-post'
    'another.html': 'pages/something/new'

Will generate the following redirects:

• old.html to new-post.
• another.html to pages/something/new.

Cache expiry durations can be defined on a per MIME type basis and are defined in seconds. Any unmatched MIME types will be served without a cache header.

For example:

deploy:
  type: aws-s3
  cache_policies:
    text/css: 86400 # 24 hours

Will serve the following header for CSS files:

Cache-Control: public, max-age=86400;
