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.
Sample code:
// Create an instance of ObsClient. var obsClient = new ObsClient({ // Hard-coded or plaintext AK/SK are risky. For security purposes, encrypt your AK/SK and store them in the configuration file or environment variables. In this example, the AK/SK are stored in environment variables for identity authentication. Before running this example, configure environment variables AccessKeyID and SecretAccessKey. // The front-end code does not have the process environment variable, so you need to use a module bundler like webpack to define the process variable. // Obtain an AK/SK pair on the management console. For details, see https://support.huaweicloud.com/eu/usermanual-ca/ca_01_0003.html. access_key_id: process.env.AccessKeyID, secret_access_key: process.env.SecretAccessKey, // Replace the example endpoint with the actual one in your case. server: 'https://obs.eu-west-101.myhuaweicloud.eu' }); obsClient.getObject({ Bucket : 'bucketname', Key : 'objectname', SaveByType : 'file' }, function (err, result) { if(err){ console.error('Error-->' + err); }else{ console.log('Status-->' + result.CommonMsg.Status); if(result.CommonMsg.Status < 300 && result.InterfaceResult){ // Obtain the download path of the file. console.log('Download Path:'); console.log(result.InterfaceResult.Content.SignedUrl); } } });

Set the SaveByType parameter to file to generate the path for saving the to-be-downloaded file.
