Website File Hosting

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

You can perform the following to implement website file hosting:

  1. Upload a website file to your bucket in OBS as an object and set the MIME type for the object.
  2. Set the ACL of the object to public-read.
  3. Access the object using a browser.

Sample code:

// 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 ACCESS_KEY_ID and SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_ID.
// 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.
String ak = System.getenv("ACCESS_KEY_ID");
String sk = System.getenv("SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_ID");
String endPoint = "https://your-endpoint";

// Create an instance of ObsClient.
ObsClient obsClient = new ObsClient(ak, sk, endPoint);

// Upload objects and set the MIME type for the objects. 
PutObjectRequest request = new PutObjectRequest();
request.setBucketName("bucketname");
request.setObjectKey("test.html");
request.setFile(new File("localfile.html"));
ObjectMetadata metadata = new ObjectMetadata();
metadata.setContentType("text/html");
request.setMetadata(metadata);
obsClient.putObject(request);

// Set the object ACL to public-read. 
obsClient.setObjectAcl("bucketname", "test.html", AccessControlList.REST_CANNED_PUBLIC_READ);

You can use https://bucketname.your-endpoint/test.html in a browser to access files hosted using the sample code.
