Obtaining Customized Metadata

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

After an object is successfully downloaded, its customized data is returned. Sample code is as follows:

// 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'
});

// Download the object to obtain the object's customized metadata. 
obsClient.getObject({
       Bucket : 'bucketname',
       Key : 'objectname',
}, (err, result) => {
       if(err){
              console.error('Error-->' + err);
       }else{
              console.log('Status-->' + result.CommonMsg.Status);
              if(result.CommonMsg.Status < 300 && result.InterfaceResult){
                  console.log('Metadata-->' + JSON.stringify(result.InterfaceResult.Metadata['property']));
              }
       }
});
