Deleting a Bucket Policy (SDK for C)

If you have any questions during development, post them on the Issues page of GitHub.

Function

This API is used to delete the policy of a bucket. After the bucket policy is deleted, all permissions previously granted through the policy become invalid, and the bucket will revert to its default access control status.

Restrictions

Method

void delete_bucket_policy(const obs_options *options, obs_response_handler *handler,
                      void *callback_data);

Request Parameters

Table 1 List of request parameters

Parameter

Type

Mandatory (Yes/No)

Description

options

const obs_options*

Yes

Explanation:

Context of the requested bucket. You can set the AK, SK, endpoint, bucket, timeout interval, and temporary credentials through obs_options.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

handler

obs_response_handler *

Yes

Explanation:

A callback structure where all members are pointers to callback functions, used to set the callback functions that handle response data. You can set a callback function to copy the response data from the server to callback_data (custom callback data).

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

callback_data

void *

No

Explanation:

Custom callback data.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

Sample Code

This example deletes a bucket policy.
#include "eSDKOBS.h"
#include <stdio.h>
// Response callback function
obs_status response_properties_callback(const obs_response_properties *properties, void *callback_data);
void response_complete_callback(obs_status status, const obs_error_details *error, void *callback_data);
int main()
{
    // Call the obs_initialize method at the program entry to initialize global resources such as the network and memory.
    obs_status ret_status = obs_initialize(OBS_INIT_ALL);
    if (OBS_STATUS_OK != ret_status)
    {
        printf("obs_initialize failed(%s).\n", obs_get_status_name(ret_status));
        return -1;
    }
    obs_options options;
    // Create and initialize options, including the access domain name (host_name), access keys (access_key and secret_access_key), and bucket name (bucket_name).
    init_obs_options(&options);
    // Enter the endpoint corresponding to the bucket for host_name. CN-Hong Kong is used here as an example. Replace it with the one currently in use.
    options.bucket_options.host_name = "obs.ap-southeast-1.myhuaweicloud.com";
    // Hard-coded or plaintext AK and SK are risky. For security purposes, encrypt your AK and SK and store them in the configuration file or environment variables.
    // In this example, the AK and SK are stored in environment variables for identity authentication. Before running the code in this example, configure local environment variables ACCESS_KEY_ID and SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
    options.bucket_options.access_key = getenv("ACCESS_KEY_ID");
    options.bucket_options.secret_access_key = getenv("SECRET_ACCESS_KEY");
    if (!options.bucket_options.access_key || !options.bucket_options.secret_access_key) {
        printf("ERROR: ACCESS_KEY_ID and SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables must be set.\n");
        obs_deinitialize();
        return -1;
    }
    // Specify the bucket name, for example, example-bucket-name.
    options.bucket_options.bucket_name = "example-bucket-name";
    // Set the response callback function.
    obs_response_handler response_handler =
    {

    } else {
        printf("delete bucket policy failed(%s).\n", obs_get_status_name(ret_status));
    }
    // Release the allocated global resources.
    obs_deinitialize();
}

    (void)properties; (void)callback_data;
    return OBS_STATUS_OK;
}

{
    if (callback_data) { *(obs_status*)callback_data = status; }
    if (error && error->message) { printf("Error: %s\n", error->message); }
