AWS Sync files with amazon s3 bucket

Question

In linux I am able to sync files like this:

https://serverfault.com/questions/682708/copy-directory-structure-intact-to-aws-s3-bucket

Now on windows using c# this is how I upload a file:

using (var fileTransferUtility = new TransferUtility(_credentials.AccessKeyId, _credentials.SecretAccessKey, _region))
{
    using (FileStream fileToUpload = new FileStream(fileLocation, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
    {
           var fileTransferUtilityRequest = new TransferUtilityUploadRequest
           {
                                BucketName = bucketName,

                                InputStream = fileToUpload,
                                StorageClass = S3StorageClass.ReducedRedundancy,
                                Key = key,
                                CannedACL = S3CannedACL.PublicRead,
            };

           fileTransferUtility.Upload(fileTransferUtilityRequest);   
    }
}

How can I sync a directory instead of just uploading a file using c#?

Answer 1

Here is how you upload a directory to S3 using C#,

try
    {
        TransferUtilityUploadDirectoryRequest request = new TransferUtilityUploadDirectoryRequest
        {
            BucketName = bucket,
            Directory = uploadDirectory,
            SearchOption = System.IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories,
            CannedACL = S3CannedACL.PublicRead
        };
        _transferUtility.UploadDirectory(request);
        return true;
    }
    catch (Exception exception)
    {
        //Log Exception
        return false;
    }
