setting up a S3 life cycle policy using script

Question

When executing following command

aws s3api put-bucket-lifecycle --bucket krishna-s3auto --lifecycle-configuration '{"Rules":[{"Status":"Enabled","Prefix":"","Expiration":{"Days":'90'},"AbortIncompleteMultipartUpload":{"DaysAfterInitiation":'7'},"Transitions":[{"Days":'91'},"StorageClass":"STANDARD_IA"}],"ID":"Kittu"}]}'

I get the following error

Error parsing parameter '--lifecycle-configuration': Invalid JSON: Expecting ',' 
  delimiter: line 1 column 168 (char 167)
JSON received:
  {"Rules":[{"Status":"Enabled","Prefix":"","Expiration":{"Days":90},
   "AbortIncompleteMultipartUpload":{"DaysAfterInitiation":7},
   "Transitions":[{"Days":91},"StorageClass":"STANDARD_IA"}],"ID":"Kittu"}]}

Your JSON was malformed and as well had errors like 'Transitions' keyword was used instead of 'Transition'

Following command should solve your problem

aws s3api put-bucket-lifecycle --bucket sas3auto --lifecycle-configuration file://lifecycle.json

Following is what you need to put in the lifecycle.json file

{
  "Rules": [
    {
      "Status": "Enabled",
      "Prefix": "",
      "Expiration": {
        "Days": 90
      },
      "AbortIncompleteMultipartUpload": {
        "DaysAfterInitiation": 7
      },
      "Transition": {
          "Days": 91,
          "StorageClass": "STANDARD_IA"
      },
      "ID": "Kittu"
    }
  ]
}
