Performing a File-Based Upload

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.

File-based upload uses local files as the data source of objects. Sample code is as follows:

// Create an instance of ObsClient.
var obsClient = new ObsClient({
    access_key_id: '*** Provide your Access Key ***',       
    secret_access_key: '*** Provide your Secret Key ***',       
    server : 'https://your-endpoint'
});

obsClient.putObject({
       Bucket : 'bucketname',
       Key : 'objectname',
       SourceFile : document.getElementById('input-file').files[0]
}, function (err, result) {
       if(err){
              console.error('Error-->' + err);
       }else{
              console.log('Status-->' + result.CommonMsg.Status);
       }
});
  • Use the SourceFile parameter to specify the to-be-uploaded file (a File or Blob object). For example, on an HTML page, use an input tag whose type is file to specify the to-be-uploaded file: <input type="file" id="input-file"/>.
  • The SourceFile parameter and the Body parameter cannot be used together.
  • The content to be uploaded cannot exceed 5 GB.
