Downloading an Archive Object

If you have any questions during development, post them on the Issues page of GitHub. For details about parameters and usage of each API, see the API Reference

If you want to download an Archive object, you need to restore the object first. Two restore options are supported, as described in the following table.

Option

Description

Value in OBS Android SDK

Expedited

Data can be restored within 1 to 5 minutes.

RestoreTierEnum.EXPEDITED

Standard

Data can be restored within 3 to 5 hours. This is the default option.

RestoreTierEnum.STANDARD

You can call ObsClient.restoreObject to restore an Archive object. Sample code is as follows:

String endPoint = "https://your-endpoint";
String ak = "*** Provide your Access Key ***";
String sk = "*** Provide your Secret Key ***";

// Create an instance of ObsClient.
final ObsClient obsClient = new ObsClient(ak, sk, endPoint);

RestoreObjectRequest request = new RestoreObjectRequest();
request.setBucketName("bucketname");
request.setObjectKey("objectname");
request.setDays(1);
request.setRestoreTier(RestoreTierEnum.EXPEDITED);
obsClient.restoreObject(request);

// Wait until the object is restored.
Thread.sleep(60 * 6 * 1000);

// Download an object.
ObsObject obsObject = obsClient.getObject("bucketname", "objectname");

obsObject.getObjectContent().close();
  • The object specified in ObsClient.restoreObject must be in the OBS Archive storage class. Otherwise, an exception will be thrown when you call this API.
  • RestoreObjectRequest.setDays specifies the retention period of restored object, ranging from 1 to 30.
  • RestoreObjectRequest.setTier specifies the restore option, which indicates the time spent on restoring an object.
