How to mount S3 bucket automatically on reboot

  • 772

I am using s3fs to mount an s3 bucket on my Ubuntu server:

sudo apt-get install s3fs

sudo vim /etc/passwd-s3fs // <--put user access key and secret key in this file

sudo chmod 640 /etc/passwd-s3fs // <-- change permission to password file

sudo vim /etc/fuse.conf // uncomment user_allow_other

Now mount the s3 bucket:

sudo s3fs -o allow_other s3-bucket-name /home/myuser/s3

I want to make sure that the bucket is mounted automatically after reboot, how can I do this?

fstab mount startup automount

    You need to add a line to /etc/fstab similar to:

    s3fs#mybucket /path/to/mountpoint fuse _netdev,allow_other 0 0

    See other examples here:
