Configuring a DIS Notification Policy (SDK for C)

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

Function

The DIS notification policy is an event notification function provided by OBS. You can call this API to configure DIS notification rules for a specified bucket. When specified events occur on objects in the bucket, OBS pushes the event information to the DIS data stream.

Restrictions

  • To configure a DIS notification policy for a bucket, you must be the bucket owner or have the required permission (obs:bucket:PutBucketDisPolicy granted using IAM or PutBucketDisPolicy granted using a bucket policy). For details, see Introduction to OBS Access Control, IAM Custom Policies, and Creating a Custom Bucket Policy.
  • The mapping between OBS regions and endpoints must comply with what is listed in Regions and Endpoints.
  • A maximum of 10 DIS notification rules can be configured for a bucket.
  • Each rule ID must be unique within a bucket.

Method

void set_bucket_dis_policy(const obs_options *options,
    obs_dis_policy_rule *dis_policy_rules,
    unsigned int rule_number,
    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

dis_policy_rules

Table 2 *

Yes

Explanation:

Array of DIS notification policy rules. Each rule defines the event type, DIS stream, and filter criteria.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

rule_number

unsigned int

Yes

Explanation:

Number of DIS notification rules.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

1 to 10

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

Table 2 obs_dis_policy_rule

Description

id

char *

Yes

Explanation:

Rule ID, which uniquely identifies a DIS event notification rule in a bucket.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

The value can contain 1 to 256 characters and must match the regular expression ^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{1,256}$.

Default value:

None

stream

char *

Yes

Explanation:

Name of the DIS stream to which event information is pushed.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

project

char *

Yes

Explanation:

Project ID (tenant ID), which identifies the project to which the DIS stream belongs.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

agency

char *

Yes

Explanation:

Name of the agency, which is used to authorize OBS to push events to the DIS stream across accounts.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

events

char **

Yes

Explanation:

Event type array, which specifies the event types that trigger the notification.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

ObjectCreated (which includes ObjectCreated:Put, ObjectCreated:Post, ObjectCreated:Copy, and ObjectCreated:CompleteMultipartUpload) and ObjectRemoved (which includes ObjectRemoved:Delete and ObjectRemoved:DeleteMarkerCreated)

Default value:

None

events_number

unsigned int

Yes

Explanation:

Number of elements in the event type array.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

1 to 10

Default value:

None

prefix

char *

No

Explanation:

Object name prefix. The rule takes effect only for objects whose names contain the specified prefix.

Sample Code

This example configures a DIS notification policy for a bucket.
#include "eSDKOBS.h"
#include <stdio.h>

void response_complete_callback(obs_status status, const obs_error_details *error, void *callback_data);

    // 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");
