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 the website files to your bucket in OBS as objects and set the MIME type for the objects.
  2. Set the ACL for the objects to public-read.
  3. Access the objects using a browser.

Sample code:

// Import the OBS library.
// Use npm to install the client.
var ObsClient = require('esdk-obs-nodejs');
// Use source codes to install the client.
// var ObsClient = require('./lib/obs');

// Create an instance of ObsClient.
const obsClient = new ObsClient({
    //Obtain an AK/SK pair using environment variables or import the 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.
    access_key_id: process.env.ACCESS_KEY_ID,
    secret_access_key: process.env.SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
    //CN-Hong Kong is used here as an example. Replace it with the one in your actual situation.
    server: 'https://obs.ap-southeast-1.myhuaweicloud.com'
    
});

// Upload an object.
obsClient.putObject({
       Bucket: 'bucketname',
       Key: 'test.html',
       Body: '<html><header></header><body><h1>Hello OBS</h1></body></html>',
// Set the MIME type for the object.
       ContentType: 'text/html',
// Set the object ACL to public-read. 
       ACL: obsClient.enums.AclPublicRead
}, (err, result) => {
       if(err){
              console.log('Error-->' + err);
       }else{
              console.log('Status-->' + result.CommonMsg.Status);
       }
});

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