To delete an S3 bucket using s3cmd, you can follow these steps:
Open the terminal or command prompt on your local machine.
Ensure that you have s3cmd installed. If not, you can install it using the following command:
pip install s3cmd
Authenticate s3cmd with your AWS credentials. If you haven't done this before, you can run the following command and follow the prompts to enter your access key ID and secret access key:
s3cmd --configure
Once authenticated, you can delete an S3 bucket using the following command:
s3cmd rb s3://bucket-name
Replace "bucket-name" with the name of the S3 bucket you want to delete.
You will be prompted for confirmation. Type "y" or "yes" to confirm the deletion.
If the bucket contains any objects, s3cmd will delete them before deleting the bucket. The deletion process may take some time depending on the size of the bucket.
Note: Make sure you have the necessary permissions to delete the S3 bucket.
