@apexskier thanks for creating the plugin! Is it possible to migrate from the standard FS storage to > S3 somehow?

It should be, with a bit of manual work! The file structure is pretty close to exactly the same, since this project is based on the local storage plugin.

You'll need to upload the contents of your local storage to your s3 bucket (prefix it with your keyPrefix if you've configured one), then rename the file .sinopia-db.json to verdaccio-s3-db.json.

Something like this using the aws cli might work (untested):

AWS_PATH="s3://$BUCKET"
# if you have a key prefix
AWS_PATH="s3://$BUCKET/$KEY_PREFIX"

aws s3 sync "$PATH_TO_STORAGE" "$AWS_PATH"
aws s3 mv "$AWS_PATH/.sinopia-db.json" "$AWS_PATH/verdaccio-s3-db.json"

Leaving this open for now, I want to add it to some documentation.
