Max upload size is 5GB

[jsh2134]

We currently upload files directly to AWS. Incorporate multi-part uploads to upload directly, or add easier way to include download URLs in a manifest (manifest.add_url('https//..'))

from AWS docs
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/UsingRESTAPImpUpload.html

The largest object that can be uploaded in a single PUT is 5 gigabytes.

manifest.add_url(url) workaround

something like

filename = "gnomad.exomes.r2.0.1.sites.vcf.gz"
url = "https://storage.googleapis.com/gnomad-public/release-170228/vcf/exomes/gnomad.exomes.r2.0.1.sites.vcf.gz"
manifest = solvebio.Manifest()
manifest.manifest['files'] = [{'name': filename, 'url': url}]
imp = solvebio.DatasetImport.create(dataset_id=d.id,manifest=manifest.manifest, auto_approve=True)

Maybe use the multi-part upload functions from https://github.com/requests/toolbelt

[jsh2134]

This is still the limit FYI.

Will get an error like this

    raise ConnectionError(err, request=request)
requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: ('Connection aborted.', error(32, 'Broken pipe'))

Look into ways to intercept this with a useful error message.

The current workaround is to send manifests with URLs to the files.
