Creating a Folder
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
There is no folder concept in OBS. All elements in buckets are objects. To create a folder in OBS is essentially to create an object whose size is 0 and whose name ends with a slash (/). Such objects have no difference from other objects and can be downloaded and deleted, except that they are displayed as folders in OBS Console.
// Import the OBS library.
// Use npm to install the client.
var ObsClient = require('esdk-obs-nodejs');
// Use source codes to install the client.
// var ObsClient = require('./lib/obs');
// 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 : 'parent_directory/'
}, (err, result) => {
if(err){
console.error('Error-->' + err);
}else{
console.log('Status-->' + result.CommonMsg.Status);
}
});
// Create an object in the folder.
obsClient.putObject({
Bucket : 'bucketname',
Key : 'parent_directory/objectname'
}, (err, result) => {
if(err){
console.error('Error-->' + err);
}else{
console.log('Status-->' + result.CommonMsg.Status);
}
});
- To create a folder in OBS is to create an object whose size is 0 and whose name ends with a slash (/), in essential.
- To create a multi-level folder, you only need to create the folder with the last level. For example, if you want to create a folder named src1/src2/src3/, create it directly, no matter whether the src1/ and src1/src2/ folders exist.
