Deleting a Bucket

If you have any questions during the development, post them on the Issues page of GitHub. For details about parameters and usage of each API, see the API Reference.

You can call ObsClient.DeleteBucket to delete a bucket. Sample code is as follows:

// Initialize configuration parameters.
ObsConfig config = new ObsConfig();
config.Endpoint = "https://your-endpoint";
// 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 AccessKeyID and SecretAccessKey.
// 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 accessKey= Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AccessKeyID", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Machine);
string secretKey= Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("SecretAccessKey", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Machine);
// Create an instance of ObsClient.
ObsClient client = new ObsClient(accessKey, secretKey, config);
//Delete a bucket.
try
{
    DeleteBucketRequest request = new DeleteBucketRequest
    {
        BucketName = "bucketname",
    };
    DeleteBucketResponse response = client.DeleteBucket(request);
    Console.WriteLine("Delete bucket response: {0}", response.StatusCode);
}
catch (ObsException ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine("ErrorCode: {0}", ex.ErrorCode);
    Console.WriteLine("ErrorMessage: {0}", ex.ErrorMessage);
}

• Only empty buckets (without objects and part fragments) can be deleted.
• Bucket deletion is a non-idempotence operation and an error will be reported if the to-be-deleted bucket does not exist.
