When working with S3-compatible object storage two popular CLI tools are s3cmd and s5cmd.
  • s3cmd - mature, feature rich
  • s5cmd - high performance & parallel operations

​
s3cmd installation

Install with pip: 
pip install s3cmd

​
Configure s3cmd

You will need an object storage user and a bucket. Gather:
  • Access & secret key: Project > Object storage > Users > select user
  • Endpoint: Project > Object storage > Buckets > select bucket (remove https:// prefix)
Run interactive setup: 
s3cmd --configure
Follow prompts (use provided endpoint, test, then save). Your config is stored at ~/.s3cfg. List buckets: 
s3cmd ls
Upload a file: 
s3cmd put local-file.txt s3://your-bucket-name/
Delete a file: 
s3cmd del s3://your-bucket-name/file.txt
