Deleting a Parallel File System

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 API Reference.

You can call ObsClient->deleteBucket to delete a bucket. The following sample code shows how to delete a bucket:

<?php
// Import the dependency library.
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
// Import the SDK code library during the installation with the source code.
// require 'obs-autoloader.php';
// Declare the namespace.
use Obs\ObsClient;
use Obs\ObsException;

// Create an ObsClient instance.
$obsClient = new ObsClient([
    // Obtain an AK/SK pair using environment variables (recommended) 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.
    'key' => getenv('ACCESS_KEY_ID'),
    'secret' => getenv('SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
    'endpoint' => 'https://your-endpoint',
]);

// Delete a bucket.
try {
    $resp = $obsClient->deleteBucket([
        'Bucket' => 'bucketname'
    ]);

    printf("RequestId:%s\n", $resp['RequestId']);
} catch (ObsException $e) {
    // If the operation fails, obtain the exception details.
    printf("DeleteBucketFailed: Status:%d, Code:%s, Message:%s\n",
        $e->getStatusCode(), $e->getExceptionCode(), $e->getExceptionMessage());
} finally {
    // Close ObsClient to release resources.
    $obsClient->close();
}
  • Only empty buckets (without objects and fragments) can be deleted.
  • Bucket deletion is a non-idempotent operation and an error will be reported if the bucket you want to delete does not exist.
