You will probably want to look at bash scripting
.
This guide can help you alot; http://bash.cyberciti.biz/guide/Main_Page
For your question;
Create a file called mysync
,
#!/bin/bash
mkdir extract && cd extract
wget $1
$PATH = pwd
for f in $PATH
do
tar -xvf $f
s3cmd -P sync $PATH $2
done
$1 and $2 are the parameters that you call with your script. You can look at here for more information about how to use command line parameters; http://bash.cyberciti.biz/guide/How_to_use_positional_parameters
ps; #!/bin/bash
is necessity
. you need to provide your script where bash is stored. its /bin/bash on most unix systems, but i'm not sure if it is the same on mac os x, you can learn it by calling which command on terminal;
→ which bash
/bin/bash
you need to give your script executable privileges to run it;
chmod +x mysync
then you can call it from command line;
mysync url_to_download s3_address
ps2; I haven't tested the code above, but the idea is this. hope this helps.
