Audio and Image File Upload Using CollectionFS and Amazon S3

billh93 · July 15, 2015, 2:28am

Hello everyone,
I’m trying to upload a photo and a audio file simultaneously onto a collection called ‘gifs’. I successfully uploaded them to my s3 buckets and I can display the image but I can’t play the audio file. I have been stuck with this problem for days and I can’t seem to find an answer.

I have created a repository for it. Here is the link to the GitHub Repository

If anyone can help me with it that will be really great thanks!

Line 14 of this file you are filtering images in your sound collection.

if (Meteor.isServer) {
	// Creates a folder in Mixgif called 'sounds' in amazon s3
	var soundStore = new FS.Store.S3("sounds", {
		/* REQUIRED */
		accessKeyId: Meteor.settings.private.AWSAccessKeyId,
		secretAccessKey: Meteor.settings.private.AWSSecretAccessKey,
		bucket: Meteor.settings.private.AWSBucket
	});

	Sounds = new FS.Collection("sounds", {
		stores: [soundStore],
		filter: {
			allow: {
				contentTypes: ['audio/*']
			}
		}
	});
}
// On the client just create a generic FS Store as don't have access (or want access) to S3 settings on client
if (Meteor.isClient) {

Hello @entropy thanks for responding and I did indeed make a blunder but I changed the code yet I still can’t load the mp3 file from my bucket. I however manually inserted the amazon s3 url to my html code and it does work. I’m not sure what else I can do. I checked the collectionFS s3 documentation but still nothing.

Yeah, I checked it and made the changes but still nothing. Look at the github comment I made for more information.
