you can check the aws s3 cli so to copy a file from s3.

The following cp command copies a single object to a specified file locally: 

aws s3 cp s3://mybucket/test.txt test2.txt

Make sure to use quotes " in case you have spaces in your key

aws s3 cp "s3://mybucket/test with space.txt" "./test with space.txt"
