but why does it ask me to get s3 creds?

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:04 PM

can I not just work with cloudflare to store my blobs?

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:04 PM

i.e. get cloudflare keys etc.

Nnikiv.dev i really don't want to open aws dashboard, its pure pain

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:04 PM

you don't have to do that lol

Nnikiv.dev but why does it ask me to get s3 creds?

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:05 PM

r2's primary api is their S3 Compatible API

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:05 PM

so it uses all the same terminology and supports most of the normal s3 api calls

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:05 PM

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:06 PM

only see s3 api one

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:06 PM

i just want a hash table of images

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:06 PM

mm cant find how to

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:06 PM

under R2 -> Manage R2 API Tokens you get the credentials for the s3 api

mm i wonder if there is something like it that just lets me auth with the token

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:08 PM

and point to bucket

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:08 PM

or i guess i can just go through cloudflare http api

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:09 PM

https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/get-started/ wants me to make wrangler

the normal cf rest api doesn't have documented endpoints for uploading or managing objects

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:09 PM

have to use the s3 compatible one

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:09 PM

ok so here

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:09 PM

i now have my r2 token

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:09 PM

which is accessKeyIdaccessKeyId

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:09 PM

i think

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:09 PM

oh wait

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:10 PM

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:10 PM

I think i got it, thanks

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:10 PM

kinda weird tbh

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:11 PM

like cloudflare focuses on dx, I can see many ways to make this flow easier

Nnikiv.dev kinda weird tbh

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:11 PM

well the normal cf api has rate limits (1200 requests/5 minutes) and strict upload limits (iirc 500 mb)

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:11 PM

it's shared among all teams, and they're working on more granular rate limiting but nothing yet

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:12 PM

probably at least part of the reason they want to push you to using the s3 api which has no rate limits and just the r2 max upload max of 5gb before having to use multipart

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:12 PM

plus if you go the s3 way it's better anyway imo because less vendor lock in, could always switch out with another provider

Also wouldn't the S3 api be faster on large scale? Since you won't be going through another layer of servers.

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:13 PM

makes sense

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:14 PM

iirc the CF API's base auth stuff is just a worker, and so is the s3 compat stuff (for example, they Single URL Purge is just Durable Objects and Workers and has never gone down during their core outages)

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:14 PM

possible they're still sending all the rest api r2 requests to core and then to the r2 bucket, but I don't think it necessarily has to be slower

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:15 PM

i should get a job in dx of cloudflare

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:15 PM

ok let me search it another way

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:15 PM

your account id is on the right side of your r2 overview

Chaika•5/1/24, 2:16 PM

or it's the uuid in the url of the dashboard, ex: https://dash.cloudflare.com/b9e510810e1e12fcd40826d266a1fb12/r2/overview
b9e510810e1e12fcd40826d266a1fb12 being the acct id in that example. They're not private or anything

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:20 PM

nikiv.devOP•5/1/24, 2:21 PM
