Amazon S3 Chinese Special Region Support

Amazon deployed a region in China last year, but this region is not a part of amazonaws.com. The region name is “cn-north-1”, and the s3 endpoint is “s3.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cn”. So is that possible for Discourse to support this s3 region? Thank you for your fantastic work.

You could add a pull request for it in GitHub, if you want.

Here’s the file:

github.com

discourse/discourse/blob/master/app/models/s3_region_site_setting.rb

# frozen_string_literal: true

class S3RegionSiteSetting < EnumSiteSetting

  def self.valid_value?(val)
    valid_values.include? val
  end

  def self.values
    @values ||= valid_values.sort.map { |x| { name: "s3.regions.#{x.tr("-", "_")}", value: x } }
  end

  def self.valid_values
    [
      'ap-northeast-1',
      'ap-northeast-2',
      'ap-east-1',
      'ap-south-1',
      'ap-southeast-1',
      'ap-southeast-2',

How to add this region?
Shall I just add a ‘cn-north-1’ in def self.valid_values?

How is it map to endpoint “s3.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cn”?
