I’m recording videos from a raspberry pi and want to put those on an S3 bucket using [AWSS3.jl](https://github.com/JuliaCloud/AWSS3.jl). The thing is, these videos can be large approaching the RAM of the RPI (in my case 2GB). So I’s like to avoid loading them to memory, as a vector of bytes, which is what `AWSS3.s3_put` expects.

Is there a way to either:

1. pipe the output of the camera (or anything really) directly into the bucket?
2. put a saved file in the bucket without reading it whole into memory?

Thanks!
