Listing Versioning Objects

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->listVersions to list versioning objects.

The following table describes the parameters involved in this API.

Parameter	Description
Prefix	Name prefix that the objects to be listed must contain
KeyMarker	Object name to start with when listing versioning objects in a bucket. All versioning objects whose names follow this parameter are listed in the lexicographical order.
MaxKeys	Maximum number of versioning objects returned. The value ranges from 1 to 1000. If the value is not in this range, 1000 versioning objects are returned by default.
Delimiter	Character used to group object names. If the object name contains the Delimiter parameter, the character string from the first character to the first delimiter in the object name is grouped under a single result element, CommonPrefix. (If a prefix is specified in the request, the prefix must be removed from the object name.)
VersionIdMarker	Object name to start with when listing versioning objects in a bucket. All versioning objects are listed in the lexicographical order by object name and version ID. This parameter must be used together with KeyMarker.

If the value of VersionIdMarker is not a version ID specified by KeyMarker, VersionIdMarker is ineffective.
The returned result of ObsClient->listVersions includes the versioning objects and delete markers.

Listing Versioning Objects in Simple Mode

The following sample code shows how to list versioning objects in simple mode. A maximum of 1000 versioning objects can be listed.

// Import the dependency library.
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
// Import the SDK code library during source code installation.
// require 'obs-autoloader.php';
// Declare the namespace.
use Obs\ObsClient;
// Create an instance of ObsClient.
$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.      'key' => getenv('ACCESS_KEY_ID'),
      'secret' => getenv('SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
      'endpoint' => 'https://your-endpoint'
] );

$resp = $obsClient->listVersions ( [ 
       'Bucket' => 'bucketname' 
] );
printf ( "RequestId:%s\n", $resp ['RequestId'] );
// Obtain versioning objects.
printf ( "Versions:\n" );
foreach ( $resp ['Versions'] as $index => $version ) {
       printf ( "Versions[%d]\n", $index + 1 );
       printf ( "Key:%s\n", $version ['Key'] );
       printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $version ['VersionId'] );
       printf ( "IsLatest:%s\n", $version ['IsLatest'] );
       printf ( "LastModified:%s\n", $version ['LastModified'] );
       printf ( "ETag:%s\n", $version ['ETag'] );
       printf ( "Size:%s\n", $version ['Size'] );
       printf ( "Owner[ID]:%s\n", $version ['Owner'] ['ID'] );
       printf ( "StorageClass:%s\n", $version ['StorageClass'] );
}
// Obtain delete markers.
printf ( "DeleteMarkers:\n" );
foreach ( $resp ['DeleteMarkers'] as $index => $deleteMarker ) {
       printf ( "DeleteMarkers[%d]\n", $index + 1 );
       printf ( "Key:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['Key'] );
       printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['VersionId'] );
       printf ( "LastModified:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['LastModified'] );
       printf ( "Owner[ID]:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['Owner'] ['ID'] );
}

Information about a maximum of 1000 versioning objects can be listed each time. If a bucket contains more than 1000 objects and IsTruncated is true in the returned result, not all versioning objects are listed. In such cases, you can use NextKeyMarker and NextVersionIdMarker to obtain the start position for next listing.
If you want to obtain all versioning objects in a specified bucket, you can use the paging mode for listing objects.

Listing Versioning Objects by Specifying the Number

Sample code:

// Import the dependency library.
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
// Import the SDK code library during source code installation.
// require 'obs-autoloader.php';
// Declare the namespace.
use Obs\ObsClient;
// Create an instance of ObsClient.
$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.      'key' => getenv('ACCESS_KEY_ID'),
      'secret' => getenv('SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
      'endpoint' => 'https://your-endpoint'
] );

// List 100 versioning objects.
$resp = $obsClient->listVersions ( [ 
       'Bucket' => 'bucketname',
       'MaxKeys' => 100
] );
printf ( "RequestId:%s\n", $resp ['RequestId'] );
// Obtain versioning objects.
printf ( "Versions:\n" );
foreach ( $resp ['Versions'] as $index => $version ) {
       printf ( "Versions[%d]\n", $index + 1 );
       printf ( "Key:%s\n", $version ['Key'] );
       printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $version ['VersionId'] );
       printf ( "IsLatest:%s\n", $version ['IsLatest'] );
       printf ( "LastModified:%s\n", $version ['LastModified'] );
       printf ( "ETag:%s\n", $version ['ETag'] );
       printf ( "Size:%s\n", $version ['Size'] );
       printf ( "Owner[ID]:%s\n", $version ['Owner'] ['ID'] );
       printf ( "StorageClass:%s\n", $version ['StorageClass'] );
}
// Obtain delete markers.
printf ( "DeleteMarkers:\n" );
foreach ( $resp ['DeleteMarkers'] as $index => $deleteMarker ) {
       printf ( "DeleteMarkers[%d]\n", $index + 1 );
       printf ( "Key:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['Key'] );
       printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['VersionId'] );
       printf ( "LastModified:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['LastModified'] );
       printf ( "Owner[ID]:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['Owner'] ['ID'] );

Listing All Versioning Objects in a Folder

There is no folder concept in OBS. All elements in buckets are objects. Folders are actually objects whose sizes are 0 and whose names end with a slash (/). When you set a folder name as the prefix, objects in this folder will be listed. Sample code is as follows:

// Import the dependency library.
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
// Import the SDK code library during source code installation.
// require 'obs-autoloader.php';
// Declare the namespace.
use Obs\ObsClient;
// Create an instance of ObsClient.
$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.

      'secret' => getenv('SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
      'endpoint' => 'https://your-endpoint'
] );

$keyMarker = null;
$versionIdMarker = null;

do {
       $resp = $obsClient->listVersions ( [ 
              'Bucket' => 'bucketname',
              'MaxKeys' => 100,
              'Marker' => $keyMarker,
              'VersionIdMarker' => $versionIdMarker,
              // Set the prefix of the folders to dir/.
              'Prefix' => 'dir/'
       ] );
       printf ( "RequestId:%s\n", $resp ['RequestId'] );
       // Obtain versioning objects.
       printf ( "Versions:\n" );
       foreach ( $resp ['Versions'] as $index => $version ) {
              printf ( "Versions[%d]\n", $index + 1 );
              printf ( "Key:%s\n", $version ['Key'] );
              printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $version ['VersionId'] );
              printf ( "IsLatest:%s\n", $version ['IsLatest'] );
              printf ( "LastModified:%s\n", $version ['LastModified'] );
              printf ( "ETag:%s\n", $version ['ETag'] );

       }
       // Obtain delete markers.
       printf ( "DeleteMarkers:\n" );
       foreach ( $resp ['DeleteMarkers'] as $index => $deleteMarker ) {
              printf ( "DeleteMarkers[%d]\n", $index + 1 );
              printf ( "Key:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['Key'] );
              printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['VersionId'] );
              printf ( "LastModified:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['LastModified'] );
              printf ( "Owner[ID]:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['Owner'] ['ID'] );

                     printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $version ['VersionId'] );
              }
              // Obtain delete markers.

                     printf ( "Key:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['Key'] );
                     printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['VersionId'] );
              }
              printf("\n");
              listVersionsByPrefix($resp['CommonPrefixes']);
       }
}

       printf ( "VersionId:%s\n", $deleteMarker ['VersionId'] );
}
printf("\n");

listVersionsByPrefix($resp['CommonPrefixes']);

The previous sample code does not include scenarios where the number of objects in a folder exceeds 1000.
Because objects and sub-folders in a folder are to be listed and all the objects end with a slash (/), Delimiter is always a slash (/).
In the returned result of each recursion, Versions includes the versioning objects in the folder, DeleteMarkers includes the delete markers in the folder, and CommonPrefixes includes the sub-folders in the folder.
