Overview

OSSObjects represent the data you store on OSS. They have a key (their name) and a value (their data). All objects belong to a bucket.

You can store an object on OSS by specifying a key, its data and the name of the bucket you want to put it in:

OSSObject.store('me.jpg', open('headshot.jpg'), 'photos')

The content type of the object will be inferred by its extension. If the appropriate content type can not be inferred, OSS defaults to binary/octet-stream.

If you want to override this, you can explicitly indicate what content type the object should have with the :content_type option:

file = 'black-flowers.m4a'
OSSObject.store(
  file,
  open(file),
  'jukebox',
  :content_type => 'audio/mp4a-latm'
)

You can read more about storing files on OSS in the documentation for OSSObject.store.

If you just want to fetch an object you’ve stored on OSS, you just specify its name and its bucket:

picture = OSSObject.find 'headshot.jpg', 'photos'

N.B. The actual data for the file is not downloaded in both the example where the file appeared in the bucket and when fetched directly. You get the data for the file like this:

picture.value

You can fetch just the object’s data directly:

OSSObject.value 'headshot.jpg', 'photos'

Or stream it by passing a block to stream:

open('song.mp3', 'w') do |file|
  OSSObject.stream('song.mp3', 'jukebox') do |chunk|
    file.write chunk
  end
end

The data of the file, once download, is cached, so subsequent calls to value won’t redownload the file unless you tell the object to reload its value:

# Redownloads the file's data
song.value(:reload)

Other functionality includes:

# Check if an object exists?
OSSObject.exists? 'headshot.jpg', 'photos'

# Copying an object
OSSObject.copy 'headshot.jpg', 'headshot2.jpg', 'photos'

# Renaming an object
OSSObject.rename 'headshot.jpg', 'portrait.jpg', 'photos'

# Deleting an object
OSSObject.delete 'headshot.jpg', 'photos'

More about objects and their metadata

You can find out the content type of your object with the content_type method:

song.content_type
# => "audio/mpeg"

You can change the content type as well if you like:

song.content_type = 'application/pdf'
song.store

(Keep in mind that due to limitations in OSS’s exposed API, the only way to change things like the content_type is to PUT the object onto OSS again. In the case of large files, this will result in fully re-uploading the file.)

A bevy of information about an object can be had using the about method:

pp song.about
{"last-modified"    => "Sat, 28 Oct 2006 21:29:26 GMT",
 "content-type"     => "binary/octet-stream",
 "etag"             => "\"dc629038ffc674bee6f62eb64ff3a\"",
 "date"             => "Sat, 28 Oct 2006 21:30:41 GMT",
 "x-oss-request-id" => "B7BC68F55495B1C8",
 "server"           => "AliyunOSS",
 "content-length"   => "3418766"}

You can get and set metadata for an object:

song.
# => {}
song.[:album] = "A River Ain't Too Much To Love"
# => "A River Ain't Too Much To Love"
song.[:released] = 2005
pp song.
{"x-oss-meta-released" => 2005, 
  "x-oss-meta-album"   => "A River Ain't Too Much To Love"}
song.store

That metadata will be saved in OSS and is hence forth available from that object:

song = OSSObject.find('black-flowers.mp3', 'jukebox')
pp song.
{"x-oss-meta-released" => "2005", 
  "x-oss-meta-album"   => "A River Ain't Too Much To Love"}
song.[:released]
# => "2005"
song.[:released] = 2006
pp song.
{"x-oss-meta-released" => 2006, 
 "x-oss-meta-album"    => "A River Ain't Too Much To Love"}

Class Method Details

.about(key, bucket = nil, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Fetch information about the object with key from bucket. Information includes content type, content length, last modified time, and others.

If the specified key does not exist, NoSuchKey is raised.

.createObject

When storing an object on the OSS servers using OSSObject.store, the data argument can be a string or an I/O stream. If data is an I/O stream it will be read in segments and written to the socket incrementally. This approach may be desirable for very large files so they are not read into memory all at once.

# Non streamed upload
OSSObject.store('greeting.txt', 'hello world!', 'marcel')

# Streamed upload
OSSObject.store('roots.mpeg', open('roots.mpeg'), 'marcel')

# File 'lib/aliyun/oss/object.rb', line 146

def find(key, bucket = nil)
  # N.B. This is arguably a hack. From what the current OSS API exposes, when you retrieve a bucket, it
  # provides a listing of all the files in that bucket (assuming you haven't limited the scope of what it returns).
  # Each file in the listing contains information about that file. It is from this information that an OSSObject is built.
  #
  # If you know the specific file that you want, OSS allows you to make a get request for that specific file and it returns
  # the value of that file in its response body. This response body is used to build an OSSObject::Value object. 
  # If you want information about that file, you can make a head request and the headers of the response will contain 
  # information about that file. There is no way, though, to say, give me the representation of just this given file the same 
  # way that it would appear in a bucket listing.
  #
  # When fetching a bucket, you can provide options which narrow the scope of what files should be returned in that listing.
  # Of those options, one is <tt>marker</tt> which is a string and instructs the bucket to return only object's who's key comes after
  # the specified marker according to alphabetic order. Another option is <tt>max-keys</tt> which defaults to 1000 but allows you
  # to dictate how many objects should be returned in the listing. With a combination of <tt>marker</tt> and <tt>max-keys</tt> you can
  # *almost* specify exactly which file you'd like it to return, but <tt>marker</tt> is not inclusive. In other words, if there is a bucket
  # which contains three objects who's keys are respectively 'a', 'b' and 'c', then fetching a bucket listing with marker set to 'b' will only
  # return 'c', not 'b'. 
  #
  # Given all that, my hack to fetch a bucket with only one specific file, is to set the marker to the result of calling String#previous on
  # the desired object's key, which functionally makes the key ordered one degree higher than the desired object key according to 
  # alphabetic ordering. This is a hack, but it should work around 99% of the time. I can't think of a scenario where it would return
  # something incorrect.
  
  # We need to ensure the key doesn't have extended characters but not uri escape it before doing the lookup and comparing since if the object exists, 
  # the key on OSS will have been normalized
  key    = key.remove_extended unless key.valid_utf8?
  bucket = Bucket.find(bucket_name(bucket), :marker => key.previous, :max_keys => 1)
  # If our heuristic failed, trigger a NoSuchKey exception
  if (object = bucket.objects.first) && object.key == key
    object 
  else 
    raise NoSuchKey.new("No such key `#{key}'", bucket)

.url_for(name, bucket = nil, options = {}) ⇒ Object

All private objects are accessible via an authenticated GET request to the OSS servers. You can generate an authenticated url for an object like this:

OSSObject.url_for('beluga_baby.jpg', 'marcel_molina')

By default authenticated urls expire 5 minutes after they were generated.

Expiration options can be specified either with an absolute time since the epoch with the :expires options, or with a number of seconds relative to now with the :expires_in options:

# Absolute expiration date 
# (Expires January 18th, 2038)
doomsday = Time.mktime(2038, 1, 18).to_i
OSSObject.url_for('beluga_baby.jpg', 
                 'marcel', 
                 :expires => doomsday)

# Expiration relative to now specified in seconds 
# (Expires in 3 hours)
OSSObject.url_for('beluga_baby.jpg', 
                 'marcel', 
                 :expires_in => 60 * 60 * 3)

You can specify whether the url should go over SSL with the :use_ssl option:

# Url will use https protocol
OSSObject.url_for('beluga_baby.jpg', 
                 'marcel', 
                 :use_ssl => true)

By default, the ssl settings for the current connection will be used.

If you have an object handy, you can use its url method with the same objects:

song.url(:expires_in => 30)

To get an unauthenticated url for the object, such as in the case when the object is publicly readable, pass the :authenticated option with a value of false.

OSSObject.url_for('beluga_baby.jpg',
                 'marcel',
                 :authenticated => false)
# => http://oss.aliyuncs.com/marcel/beluga_baby.jpg

def url_for(name, bucket = nil, options = {})
  connection.url_for(path!(bucket, name, options), options) # Do not normalize options
end

.value(key, bucket = nil, options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

Returns the value of the object with key in the specified bucket.

Conditional GET options

  • :if_modified_since - Return the object only if it has been modified since the specified time, otherwise return a 304 (not modified).

  • :if_unmodified_since - Return the object only if it has not been modified since the specified time, otherwise raise PreconditionFailed.

  • :if_match - Return the object only if its entity tag (ETag) is the same as the one specified, otherwise raise PreconditionFailed.

  • :if_none_match - Return the object only if its entity tag (ETag) is different from the one specified, otherwise return a 304 (not modified).

Other options

  • :range - Return only the bytes of the object in the specified range.
