Using with curl

staticd supports two operation modes: proxy and redirect

proxy mode serves as simple L7 proxy for all requests, which means all the data handled by staticd and proxied to S3 backend.

redirect mode sends redirects to S3 endpoint by presigned URL on GET and PUT requests, which should make each requests much faster and safer.

cURL example to use with redirect mode

PUT:

curl -XPUT -T /my/file -L 'http://staticd-instance:8080/my/file'

GET:

curl -T /my/file -L 'http://staticd-instance:8080/my/file'
