这里有一个对我有用的解决办法。需要注意的是，我事先知道密钥的确切格式，所以我只列出单个文件

import boto3

# The s3 base class to interact with S3
class S3(object):
  def __init__(self):
    self.s3_client = boto3.client('s3')

  def check_if_object_exists(self, s3_bucket, s3_key):
    response = self.s3_client.list_objects(
      Bucket = s3_bucket,
      Prefix = s3_key
      )
    if 'ETag' in str(response):
      return True
    else:
      return False

if __name__ == '__main__':
  s3  = S3()
  if s3.check_if_object_exists(bucket, key):
    print "Found S3 object."
  else:
    print "No object found."

如果你在一个目录或桶中有少于1000个，你可以获得它们的集合，然后检查这个集合中是否有这样的键:

files_in_dir = {d['Key'].split('/')[-1] for d in s3_client.list_objects_v2(
Bucket='mybucket',
Prefix='my/dir').get('Contents') or []}

即使my/dir不存在，这样的代码也可以工作。

http://boto3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/services/s3.html#S3.Client.list_objects_v2

S3_REGION="eu-central-1"
bucket="mybucket1"
name="objectname"

import boto3
from botocore.client import Config
client = boto3.client('s3',region_name=S3_REGION,config=Config(signature_version='s3v4'))
list = client.list_objects_v2(Bucket=bucket,Prefix=name)
for obj in list.get('Contents', []):
    if obj['Key'] == name: return True
return False

不仅是客户端，还有桶:

import boto3
import botocore
bucket = boto3.resource('s3', region_name='eu-west-1').Bucket('my-bucket')

try:
  bucket.Object('my-file').get()
except botocore.exceptions.ClientError as ex:
  if ex.response['Error']['Code'] == 'NoSuchKey':
    print('NoSuchKey')

如果您寻找一个与目录等效的键，那么您可能需要这种方法

session = boto3.session.Session()
resource = session.resource("s3")
bucket = resource.Bucket('mybucket')

key = 'dir-like-or-file-like-key'
objects = [o for o in bucket.objects.filter(Prefix=key).limit(1)]    
has_key = len(objects) > 0

这适用于父键或等同于文件的键或不存在的键。我尝试了上面喜欢的方法，但在父键上失败了。

假设您只是想检查一个键是否存在(而不是悄悄地覆盖它)，首先进行这个检查。也会检查错误:

import boto3

def key_exists(mykey, mybucket):
    s3_client = boto3.client('s3')
    try:
        response = s3_client.list_objects_v2(Bucket=mybucket, Prefix=mykey)
        for obj in response['Contents']:
            if mykey == obj['Key']:
                return 'exists'
        return False  # no keys match
    except KeyError:
        return False  # no keys found
    except Exception as e:
        # Handle or log other exceptions such as bucket doesn't exist
        return e

key_check = key_exists('someprefix/myfile-abc123', 'my-bucket-name')
if key_check:
    if key_check == 'exists':
        print("key exists!")
    else:
        print(f"S3 ERROR: {e}")
else:
    print("safe to put new bucket object")
    # try:
    #     resp = s3_client.put_object(Body="Your string or file-like object",
    #                                 Bucket=mybucket,Key=mykey)
    # ...check resp success and ClientError exception for errors...
