Deleting an Object (SDK for Go)

Function

This API deletes an object in the specified bucket to save space and costs.

Restrictions

To delete an object, you must be the bucket owner or have the required permission (obs:object:DeleteObject in IAM or DeleteObject in a bucket policy).
The mapping between OBS regions and endpoints must comply with what is listed in Regions and Endpoints.
If versioning is not enabled for a bucket, deleted objects cannot be recovered.

Method

func (obsClient ObsClient) DeleteObject(input *DeleteObjectInput) (output *DeleteObjectOutput, err error)

Request Parameters

**Table 1** List of request parameters
Parameter	Type	Mandatory (Yes/No)	Description
input	*DeleteObjectInput	Yes	Request parameters for deleting an object

**Table 2** DeleteObjectInput
Parameter	Type	Mandatory (Yes/No)	Description
Bucket	string	Yes	Explanation: Bucket name Restrictions: A bucket name must be unique across all accounts and regions. A bucket name: Must be 3 to 63 characters long and start with a digit or letter. Lowercase letters, digits, hyphens (-), and periods (.) are allowed. Cannot be formatted as an IP address. Cannot start or end with a hyphen (-) or period (.). Cannot contain two consecutive periods (..), for example, my..bucket. Cannot contain a period (.) and a hyphen (-) adjacent to each other, for example, my-.bucket or my.-bucket. If you repeatedly create buckets of the same name in the same region, no error will be reported and the bucket attributes comply with those set in the first creation request. Default value: None
Key	string	Yes	Explanation: Target object name An object is uniquely identified by an object name in a bucket. An object name is a complete path that does not contain the bucket name. For example, if the address for accessing the object is examplebucket.obs.ap-southeast-1.myhuaweicloud.com/folder/test.txt, the object name is folder/test.txt. Value range: The value must contain 1 to 1,024 characters. Default value: None
VersionId	string	No	Explanation: ID of the object version to delete, for example, G001117FCE89978B0000401205D5DC9 Value range: The value must contain 32 characters. Default value: None. If this parameter is left blank, the latest version of the object is deleted.

Responses

**Table 3** List of returned results
Parameter	Type	Description
output	*DeleteObjectOutput	Explanation: Returned results. For details, see Table 4.
err	error	Explanation: Error messages returned by the API

**Table 4** DeleteObjectOutput
Parameter	Type	Description
StatusCode	int	Explanation: HTTP status code Value range: A status code is a group of digits that can be 2xx (indicating successes) or 4xx or 5xx (indicating errors). It indicates the status of a response. For more information, see Status Code. Default value: None
RequestId	string	Explanation: Request ID returned by the OBS server Default value: None
ResponseHeaders	map[string][]string	Explanation: HTTP response headers Default value: None
DeleteMarker	bool	Explanation: Whether the deleted object is a delete marker Value range: true: The deleted object is a delete marker. false: The deleted object is not a delete marker. Default value: false

Code Examples

This example deletes object example/objectname from bucket examplebucket.

    
     
       
       
         package main
import (
    "fmt"
    "os"
    obs "github.com/huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-go-obs/obs"
)
func main() {
    //Obtain an AK/SK pair using environment variables or import an AK/SK pair in other ways. Using hard coding may result in leakage.
    //Obtain an AK/SK pair on the management console. For details, see https://support.huaweicloud.com/intl/en-us/usermanual-ca/ca_01_0003.html.
    ak := os.Getenv("AccessKeyID")
    sk := os.Getenv("SecretAccessKey")
    // (Optional) If you use a temporary AK/SK pair and a security token to access OBS, you are advised not to use hard coding to reduce leakage risks. You can obtain an AK/SK pair using environment variables or import an AK/SK pair in other ways.
    // securityToken := os.Getenv("SecurityToken")
    // Enter the endpoint corresponding to the bucket. CN-Hong Kong is used here as an example. Replace it with the one currently in use.
    endPoint := "https://obs.ap-southeast-1.myhuaweicloud.com"
    // Create an obsClient instance.
    // If you use a temporary AK/SK pair and a security token to access OBS, use the obs.WithSecurityToken method to specify a security token when creating an instance.
    obsClient, err := obs.New(ak, sk, endPoint/*, obs.WithSecurityToken(securityToken)*/)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf("Create obsClient error, errMsg: %s", err.Error())
    }
    input := &obs.DeleteObjectInput{}
    // Specify a bucket name.
    input.Bucket = "examplebucket"
    // Specify the object (example/objectname as an example) to delete.
    input.Key = "example/objectname"
    // Delete the object.
    output, err := obsClient.DeleteObject(input)
    if err == nil {
        fmt.Printf("Delete object(%s) under the bucket(%s) successful!\n", input.Key, input.Bucket)
        fmt.Printf("RequestId:%s\n", output.RequestId)
        return
    }
    fmt.Printf("Delete object(%s) under the bucket(%s) fail!\n", input.Key, input.Bucket)
    if obsError, ok := err.(obs.ObsError); ok {
        fmt.Println("An ObsError was found, which means your request sent to OBS was rejected with an error response.")
        fmt.Println(obsError.Error())
    } else {
        fmt.Println("An Exception was found, which means the client encountered an internal problem when attempting to communicate with OBS, for example, the client was unable to access the network.")
        fmt.Println(err)
    }
}
