Grails AWS SDK plugin not resolving PutObjectRequest - amazon-web-services

Question

I am trying to get my grails app working with Amazon S3, I have been following the following docs... http://agorapulse.github.io/grails-aws-sdk/guide/single.html
At the following step amazonWebService.s3.putObject(new PutObjectRequest('some-grails-bucket', 'somePath/someKey.jpg', new File('/Users/ben/Desktop/photo.jpg')).withCannedAcl(CannedAccessControlList.PublicRead))
The project can't resolve class PutObjectRequest, and I have tried importing com.amazonaws.services.s3.model.PutObjectRequest manually, but it still cant find the class. The only thing I can think of is I might have an older version of the SDK, though I only followed the tutorial.
My BuildConfig.groovy...
...
dependencies{
//dependencies for amazon aws plugin
build 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.3.2'
build 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.3.2'
runtime 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.3.2'
runtime 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.3.2'
}
plugins{
...
runtime ':aws-sdk:1.9.40'
}
has anyone else run into this issue and have a solution?

I don't use the plugin, I simply just use the SDK directly. Not sure what you would need a plugin for. You don't need httpcomponents for it to work
Add this to you dependencies block:
compile('com.amazonaws:aws-java-sdk-s3:1.10.2') {
exclude group: 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core'
}
Heres my bean I use. I set the key, access, and bucket data in the bean configuration
class AmazonStorageService implements FileStorageService {
String accessKeyId
String secretAccessKey
String bucketName
AmazonS3Client s3client
#PostConstruct
private void init() {
s3client = new AmazonS3Client(new BasicAWSCredentials(accessKeyId, secretAccessKey));
}
String upload(String name, InputStream inputStream) {
s3client.putObject(new PutObjectRequest(bucketName, name, inputStream, null).withCannedAcl(CannedAccessControlList.PublicRead));
getUrl(name)
}
String upload(String name, byte[] data) {
upload(name, new ByteArrayInputStream(data))
}
String getUrl(String name) {
s3client.getUrl(bucketName, name)
}
Boolean exists(String name) {
try {
s3client.getObjectMetadata(bucketName, name)
true
} catch(AmazonServiceException e) {
false
}
}
}
