Hi there

My name is Max and I'm a freelance DevOps and cloud engineer from Germany.

I gain, apply and pass on knowledge about how to setup modern infrastructure on a daily basis.

bucketman's Issues

have a proper test coverage

Currently there are no tests for bucketman whatsoever. This makes it very hard to make sure that the current functionality doesn't break when working on new features.
The Textual testing guide should be a good starting point to start adding tests.
Also there is pytest-textual-snapshot that allows to compare UI snapshots after a certain sequence of key inputs.

introduce read-only mode

Allow to enable a read-only mode that disables all read write operations so bucketman becomes a view-only filesystem/S3 browser.

allow to preview file content

It should be possible to preview human-readable (.txt, .md, ...) files directly within bucketman.

Textual widgets that may be used:

• https://textual.textualize.io/widgets/markdown_viewer/
• https://textual.textualize.io/widgets/text_area/

support S3 bucket pagination

Currently we return the default 1000 keys (which is the maximum) when listing S3 objects. So if a certain prefix contains more than this bucketman will never display them.
So in case a prefix contains more than 1000 keys we should allow the user to load additional keys, e.g. by providing a "load more" entry at the end of the tree view.

implement rename/move command

bucketman should allow to rename/move objects within an S3 bucket.
As S3 does not provide a move-operation this has to be implemented by copying the object to the new location / under a new name and then deleting the source object afterwards.
