Remarks

The IBM Cloud Object Storage service has an API that is compatible with that of Amazon S3, allowing you to store arbitrary data using the same bucket-and-object paradigm that S3 uses.

To use the IBMStorage class, you will first need to sign up for the IBM Cloud Object Storage service and obtain an AccessKey and a SecretKey. Then you can start creating buckets in your account using CreateBucket. The buckets are place holders for your objects allowing you to access them by http URLs. You can then add objects to any of your buckets using CreateObject.

There are other methods such as ListBuckets, ListObjects, GetObject, GetLink, DeleteObject etc. that further enable you to manage your data store.

This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used.

If the class is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_get($res, 27 );
cloudstorage_ibmstorage_set($res, 27, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

If this property is non-empty when ListObjects or ListVersions is called, any objects (or object versions) whose names contain the same string between the specified ObjectPrefix and the first occurrence of the specified delimiter that follow will be rolled up into a "common prefix" element, which is returned in place of the individual objects themselves.

The PrefixList event will fire once for each common prefix returned. If the StorePrefixList configuration setting is enabled, the class will also populate the PrefixCount and Prefix[i] configuration settings

Object Hierarchy Traversal

By using the ObjectDelimiter and ObjectPrefix properties in tandem, applications can effectively "traverse" a virtual hierarchy of objects (or object versions) as if it were a filesystem. For example, assume that objects with the following names exist within a bucket:

• MyCompany/
• MyCompany/Department1/
• MyCompany/Department2/
• MyCompany/Department2/EmployeeA
• MyCompany/Department2/EmployeeB

With ObjectDelimiter set to /, we can set ObjectPrefix to successively "deeper" values before calling ListObjects or ListVersions for the following effect:

Timeout Property (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

The timeout for the class.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getTimeout();
public function setTimeout($value);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_get($res, 152 );
cloudstorage_ibmstorage_set($res, 152, $value );

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The class will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not freeze and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.

Note: By default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, that is, the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Refer to ListVersions for more information.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

String

AbortMultipartUpload Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Aborts a multipart upload.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doAbortMultipartUpload($objectname, $uploadid);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_abortmultipartupload($res, $objectname, $uploadid);

Remarks

This method aborts the multipart upload of the object named ObjectName specified by UploadId.

When this method is called, all parts that have been uploaded for the multipart upload are deleted from the server. (Note that if any part uploads are currently in progress, it may be necessary to call this method again after they complete.)

If this method is called successfully, the specified UploadId will no longer be valid.

AddMetadata Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Adds a metadata item to the Metadata properties.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doAddMetadata($name, $value);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_addmetadata($res, $name, $value);

Remarks

This method adds a metadata item to the Metadata properties. Name specifies the name of the item, and Value specifies the value of the item. Keep in mind that the server stores metadata names in lowercase.

If Name begins with a service-specific metadata (e.g., x-amz-meta-, x-goog-meta-, etc.), it will be stripped off. The class will take care of prepending it when sending metadata to the server.

AddQueryParam Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Adds a query parameter to the QueryParams properties.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doAddQueryParam($name, $value);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_addqueryparam($res, $name, $value);

Remarks

This method is used to add a query parameter to the QueryParams properties. Name specifies the name of the parameter, and Value specifies the value of the parameter.

All specified Values will be URL encoded by the class automatically. Consult the service documentation for details on the available parameters.

BucketExists Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Checks whether the bucket exists.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doBucketExists();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_bucketexists($res);

This method checks whether the bucket specified by Bucket exists, returning true if so or false if not.

CheckVersioningEnabled Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Checks whether versioning is enabled for the currently selected bucket.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doCheckVersioningEnabled();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_checkversioningenabled($res);

Remarks

This method can be used to check whether the bucket currently selected by Bucket has versioning enabled.

Note that if Bucket is empty, or refers to a bucket that does not exist, this method will always return false when queried.

Refer to Amazon's Versioning documentation for more information about versioning.

CompleteMultipartUpload Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Completes a multipart upload by assembling previously uploaded parts.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doCompleteMultipartUpload($objectname, $uploadid);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_completemultipartupload($res, $objectname, $uploadid);

Remarks

This method completes the multipart upload specified by UploadId. The server will assemble all of the parts that have been uploaded into an object named ObjectName.

Note that this method automatically calls ListParts internally to obtain the information needed to complete the multipart upload. This process does not alter the Parts properties, nor does it cause the PartList event to fire.

Config Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doConfig($configurationstring);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_config($res, $configurationstring);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

CopyObject Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Copies an object.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doCopyObject($srcobjectname, $destbucket, $destobjectname);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_copyobject($res, $srcobjectname, $destbucket, $destobjectname);

Remarks

This method copies the object specified by SrcObjectName (in the bucket currently selected by Bucket) to the object specified by DestObjectName in DestBucket. If DestBucket is empty, the bucket specified by Bucket is used as the destination bucket.

If the VersionId property is non-empty, the specified version of the source object will be used as the copy source. In this case, DestObjectName may be the same as SrcObjectName to "promote" the version, copying its contents back to the base object.

If there are any metadata items present in the Metadata properties, they will set on the destination object; otherwise, the server will copy any metadata items present on the source object to the destination object.

Notes:

• Objects may only be copied to buckets that exist within the same region.
• Objects larger than 5GB cannot be copied using this method. To copy such objects, start a new multipart upload for the destination object using StartMultipartUpload, and then use the CopyPart method to create parts for said multipart upload using the source object's data.

CopyPart Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Copies the specified object as a part of a multipart upload.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doCopyPart($srcobjectname, $destbucket, $destobjectname, $destpartnumber, $destuploadid);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_copypart($res, $srcobjectname, $destbucket, $destobjectname, $destpartnumber, $destuploadid);

Remarks

This method copies data from the object specified by SrcObjectName (in the bucket currently selected by Bucket) to a new multipart upload part for DestObjectName in DestBucket.

The DestPartNumber and DestUploadId parameters should be used in the same manner as the UploadPart method's PartNumber and UploadId parameters.

To copy a specific range of bytes from the source object, set the CopyPartRange configuration setting before calling this method.

CreateBucket Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Creates a new bucket.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doCreateBucket();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_createbucket($res);

Remarks

This method creates a new bucket using the name specified by the Bucket property. The bucket is created in the region specified by the Region property.

CreateObject Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Creates a new object in the currently selected bucket.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doCreateObject($objectname);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_createobject($res, $objectname);

Remarks

This method creates a new object named Object in the bucket currently selected by Bucket. If there are any metadata items present in the Metadata properties, they will included in the creation request.

If LocalFile is set the file will be uploaded from the specified path. If LocalFile is not set the data in ObjectData will be used.

To encrypt the file before uploading it, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword.

This method can automatically handle the multipart upload of objects (See Below). If it is desired to manually take control of the multipart upload process see StartMultipartUpload.

Automatic Multipart Uploads

If more than SimpleUploadLimit bytes of data are provided, the class will automatically perform a multipart upload by splitting the data up into parts (sized according to the FragmentSize configuration setting) and uploading them individually. To accomplish this, the class automatically makes calls to StartMultipartUpload, UploadPart, and CompleteMultipartUpload internally; tracks upload state information using the ResumableUploadState configuration setting; and tracks how much data has been uploaded using the StartByte property. The FragmentComplete event will fire after each part is uploaded.

If, during an automatic multipart upload, any individual request fails, the upload can be resumed be calling this method again with the same parameters, so long as ResumableUploadState and StartByte contain the same values as they did when the upload was interrupted.

When an automatic multipart upload completes successfully, ResumableUploadState is cleared and StartByte is reset to 0.

DeleteBucket Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Deletes a bucket.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doDeleteBucket();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_deletebucket($res);

Remarks

This method deletes the bucket currently selected by Bucket. Note that bucket names share a global namespace, and it may not be possible to recreate a deleted bucket if its name has been taken by another user in the meantime.

DeleteObject Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Deletes an object.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doDeleteObject($objectname);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_deleteobject($res, $objectname);

Remarks

This method deletes the object specified by ObjectName in the bucket currently selected by Bucket.

If the VersionId property is non-empty, this method deletes the specified version of the object instead.

Deleting Versioned Objects

If a bucket has versioning enabled (i.e., CheckVersioningEnabled returns true when queried), and this method is called on an object rather than a specific object version, then instead of actually deleting any data, the server will simply create a special object version called a delete marker.

If an object's latest version is a delete marker, then the server treats the object as if it didn't exist (i.e., it doesn't appear when listing objects, cannot be downloaded, etc.). However, all of the previous versions of the object (including one that existed just before the delete marker was created) still exist; they can be listed using ListVersions, and explicitly interacted with by setting VersionId and calling an appropriate method.

To permanently delete objects in a versioning-enabled bucket, each version of the object must be explicitly deleted by setting VersionId before calling this method. This includes any delete marker versions, which can be deleted like any other version.

Refer to Amazon's Deleting Object Versions, Working with Delete Markers, and Removing Delete Markers articles for more information.

DisableVersioning Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Disables versioning for the currently selected bucket.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doDisableVersioning();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_disableversioning($res);

This method can be used to disable versioning for the bucket currently selected by Bucket.

Refer to Amazon's Versioning documentation for more information about versioning.

DoEvents Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

This method processes events from the internal message queue.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doEvents();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_doevents($res);

Remarks

When DoEvents is called, the class processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.

EnableVersioning Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Enables versioning for the currently selected bucket.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doEnableVersioning();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_enableversioning($res);

Remarks

This method can be used to enable versioning for the bucket currently selected by Bucket.

Refer to Amazon's Versioning documentation for more information about versioning.

GetBucketLocation Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Gets a bucket's location.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doGetBucketLocation();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_getbucketlocation($res);

Remarks

This method retrieves and returns the location (i.e., region) of the bucket currently selected by Bucket.

GetLink Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Creates a link that provides access to an object for a specified amount of time.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doGetLink($objectname, $expires);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_getlink($res, $objectname, $expires);

Remarks

This method creates and returns a pre-authenticated link that provides access to the object specified by ObjectName in the bucket currently selected by Bucket. If the VersionId property is non-empty, a link is created for the specified version of the object.

The Expires parameter specifies how many seconds the link should be valid for. The maximum validity period is seven days.

Note that this method is an offline method that simply generates a pre-signed URL; no communication with the server takes place.

GetObject Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Downloads an object.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doGetObject($objectname);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_getobject($res, $objectname);

Remarks

This methods downloads the object specified by ObjectName in the bucket currently selected by Bucket. If the VersionId property is non-empty, the specified version of the object is downloaded instead. The Range property can be used to download a specific range of bytes from the object.

If LocalFile is set, the object data will be saved to the specified location; otherwise, the object data will be held by ObjectData.

To download and decrypt an encrypted object, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword before calling this method.

Download Notes

In the simplest use-case, downloading an object looks like this: s3.LocalFile = "../MyData.zip"; s3.GetObject(s3.Objects[0].Name);

Resuming Downloads

The class also supports resuming failed downloads by using the StartByte property. If a download is interrupted, set StartByte to the appropriate offset before calling this method to resume the download. string downloadFile = "../MyData.zip"; s3.LocalFile = downloadFile; s3.GetObject(s3.Objects[0].Name); //The transfer is interrupted and GetObject() above fails. Later, resume the download: //Get the size of the partially downloaded file s3.StartByte = new FileInfo(downloadFile).Length; s3.GetObject(s3.Objects[0].Name);

Resuming Encrypted File Downloads

Resuming encrypted file downloads is only supported when LocalFile was set in the initial download attempt.

If LocalFile is set when beginning an encrypted download, the class creates a temporary file in TempPath to hold the encrypted data until the download is complete. If the download is interrupted, DownloadTempFile will be populated with the path of the temporary file that holds the partial data.

To resume, DownloadTempFile must be populated, along with StartByte, to allow the remainder of the encrypted data to be downloaded. Once the encrypted data is downloaded it will be decrypted and written to LocalFile. s3.LocalFile = "../MyData.zip"; s3.EncryptionPassword = "password"; s3.GetObject(s3.Objects[0].Name); //The transfer is interrupted and GetObject() above fails. Later, resume the download: //Get the size of the partially downloaded temp file s3.StartByte = new FileInfo(s3.Config("DownloadTempFile")).Length; s3.GetObject(s3.Objects[0].Name);

GetObjectInfo Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Gets an object's information and metadata.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doGetObjectInfo($objectname);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_getobjectinfo($res, $objectname);

Remarks

This method gets information and metadata for the object specified by Object in the bucket currently selected by Bucket. If the VersionId property is non-empty, information and metadata for the specified version of the object is retrieved instead.

Calling this method will fire the ObjectList and MetadataList events, and will re-populate the Objects and Metadata collection properties.

Interrupt Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

This method interrupts the current method.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doInterrupt();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_interrupt($res);

Remarks

If there is no method in progress, Interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.

ListBuckets Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Lists all buckets in the account.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doListBuckets();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_listbuckets($res);

Remarks

This method lists all buckets in the account.

Calling this method will fire the BucketList event once for each bucket, and will also populate the Buckets properties.

ListMultipartUploads Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Lists the current multipart uploads.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doListMultipartUploads();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_listmultipartuploads($res);

Remarks

This method lists the current multipart uploads in the bucket currently selected by Bucket.

Before calling this method, the ObjectPrefix property may be set in order to restrict the results to only the multipart uploads whose names begin with a given string. The ObjectDelimiter property can also be used to further tune the results returned. The MaxObjects configuration setting may be used to limit the number of results returned.

Calling this method will fire the ObjectList event once for each multipart upload, and will also populate the Objects properties.

If there are still more multipart uploads available to list when this method returns, the ObjectMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until ObjectMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Objects properties. Alternatively, the AccumulatePages configuration setting can be disabled to clear the Objects properties every time a page of results is returned.

ListObjects Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Lists the objects in a bucket.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doListObjects();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_listobjects($res);

Remarks

This method lists the objects in the bucket currently selected by Bucket.

Before calling this method, the ObjectPrefix property may be set in order to restrict the results to only the objects whose names begin with a given string. The ObjectDelimiter property can also be used to further tune the results returned. The MaxObjects configuration setting may be used to limit the number of results returned.

Calling this method will fire the ObjectList event once for each object, and will also populate the Objects properties. It may also fire the PrefixList event, and populate the PrefixCount and Prefix[i] configuration settings, depending on how the properties discussed above are set.

If there are still more objects available to list when this method returns, the ObjectMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until ObjectMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Objects properties. Alternatively, the AccumulatePages configuration setting can be disabled to clear the Objects properties every time a page of results is returned.

Object Hierarchy Traversal

By using the ObjectDelimiter and ObjectPrefix properties in tandem, applications can effectively "traverse" a virtual hierarchy of objects (or object versions) as if it were a filesystem. For example, assume that objects with the following names exist within a bucket:

• MyCompany/
• MyCompany/Department1/
• MyCompany/Department2/
• MyCompany/Department2/EmployeeA
• MyCompany/Department2/EmployeeB

With ObjectDelimiter set to /, we can set ObjectPrefix to successively "deeper" values before calling ListObjects or ListVersions for the following effect:

ListParts Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Lists the parts in a multipart upload.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doListParts($objectname, $uploadid);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_listparts($res, $objectname, $uploadid);

Remarks

This method lists the parts in the multipart upload of ObjectName specified by UploadId. The MaxParts configuration setting may be used to limit the number of results returned.

Calling this method will fire the PartList event once for each part, and will also populate the Parts properties.

If there are still more parts available to list when this method returns, the PartMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until PartMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Parts properties. Alternatively, the AccumulatePages configuration setting can be disabled to clear the Parts properties every time a page of results is returned.

Note that this method does not need to be called before attempting to complete a multipart upload with CompleteMultipartUpload; the class will automatically collect the necessary information internally. Refer to CompleteMultipartUpload for more information.

ListVersions Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Lists the object versions in a bucket.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doListVersions();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_listversions($res);

Remarks

This method lists the object versions in the bucket currently selected by Bucket.

Before calling this method, the ObjectPrefix property may be set in order to restrict the results to only the object versions whose names begin with a given string. The ObjectDelimiter property can also be used to further tune the results returned. The MaxObjects configuration setting may be used to limit the number of results returned.

Calling this method will fire the ObjectList event once for each object version, and will also populate the Objects properties. It may also fire the PrefixList event, and populate the PrefixCount and Prefix[i] configuration settings, depending on how the properties discussed above are set.

If there are still more object versions available to list when this method returns, the VersionMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until VersionMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Objects properties. Alternatively, the AccumulatePages configuration setting can be disabled to clear the Objects properties every time a page of results is returned.

Object Hierarchy Traversal

By using the ObjectDelimiter and ObjectPrefix properties in tandem, applications can effectively "traverse" a virtual hierarchy of objects (or object versions) as if it were a filesystem. For example, assume that objects with the following names exist within a bucket:

• MyCompany/
• MyCompany/Department1/
• MyCompany/Department2/
• MyCompany/Department2/EmployeeA
• MyCompany/Department2/EmployeeB

With ObjectDelimiter set to /, we can set ObjectPrefix to successively "deeper" values before calling ListObjects or ListVersions for the following effect:

Reset Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Resets the class to its initial state.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doReset();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_reset($res);

Remarks

This method resets the class to its initial state.

ResetHeaders Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Resets all HTTP headers, cookies, and LocalFile.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doResetHeaders();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_resetheaders($res);

Remarks

Resets all the HTTP headers as well as LocalFile to "" (empty string), and clears the Metadata and QueryParams collection properties.

Call this method before creating a new request, so that headers and query parameters from the previous request are not carried over to the next one.

SendCustomRequest Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Sends a custom request to the server.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doSendCustomRequest($httpmethod, $objectname, $requestbody);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_sendcustomrequest($res, $httpmethod, $objectname, $requestbody);

Remarks

This method can be used to send arbitrary requests to the server.

Valid values for HttpMethod are:

• GET (default if empty)
• HEAD
• POST
• PUT
• DELETE

The ObjectName and RequestBody parameters may be empty if not needed.

Usage

When this method is called, the class does the following:

1. Builds a request URL, including query parameters, based on the following:
   • UseSSL, Region, and UseVirtualHosting for the base URL.
     • Alternatively, if a custom URL has been specified using the URL configuration setting, it is used directly, and these properties are ignored.
   • Bucket (if non-empty)
   • ObjectName (if non-empty)
   • VersionId (if both it and ObjectName are non-empty)
   • QueryParams
2. Adds request headers from:
   • ContentDisposition
   • ContentType
   • OtherHeaders
   • ProductToken
   • SessionToken
   • UserToken
3. Signs the request (unless the SignCustomRequest configuration setting is disabled).
4. Sends the request, including RequestBody if non-empty.
5. Stores the response headers in the ParsedHeaders properties; and the response body in the specified LocalFile, or ObjectData (using the same logic as GetObject).

If the response body is XML data, the XPath, XText, and other X* configuration settings can then be used to navigate and extract information from it.

StartMultipartUpload Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Starts a new manual multipart upload.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doStartMultipartUpload($objectname);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_startmultipartupload($res, $objectname);

Remarks

This method starts a new "manual" multipart upload for an object named ObjectName, in the bucket currently selected by Bucket, and returns the upload Id that the server associates with it. For an "automatic" multipart upload see the CreateObject method. This upload Id can then be used to call the following methods:

• UploadPart
• CopyPart
• ListParts
• CompleteMultipartUpload
• AbortMultipartUpload

If there are any metadata items present in the Metadata properties, they will be included in the creation request, and will be applied to the final object after the multipart upload is completed with CompleteMultipartUpload.

Multipart uploads never expire, they must be explicitly completed or aborted using CompleteMultipartUpload or AbortMultipartUpload. The ListMultipartUploads method can be used to retrieve a list of current multipart uploads.

UpdateBucketACL Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Updates a bucket's canned access policy.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doUpdateBucketACL();

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_updatebucketacl($res);

Remarks

This method updates the canned access policy of the bucket selected by Bucket to the value specified by AccessPolicy

UpdateObjectACL Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Updates an object's canned access policy.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doUpdateObjectACL($objectname);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_updateobjectacl($res, $objectname);

Remarks

This method updates the caned access policy of the objects specified by ObjectName, in the bucket currently selected by Bucket, to the value specified by AccessPolicy.

If the VersionId property is non-empty, the canned access policy of the specified version of the object is updated instead.

UploadPart Method (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Uploads a multipart upload part.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doUploadPart($objectname, $partnumber, $uploadid);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_do_uploadpart($res, $objectname, $partnumber, $uploadid);

Remarks

This method uploads a part for the multipart upload of the object named ObjectName specified by UploadId.

PartNumber specifies the part's number; it must be a value in the range 1 to 10000, inclusive. If a part with the given number already exists in the specified multipart upload, it is replaced with the newly-uploaded part.

The data to upload is taken from either LocalFile or ObjectData (whichever data is found in first, when checked in that order). Each part must be at least 5MB in size, except for the last part in the overall multipart upload, which can be any non-zero size.

If the IncludePartMD5 configuration setting is true, the class will include an MD5 digest of its data when sending it to the server. The server will then verify that the data was received without corruption.

BucketList Event (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_register_callback($res, 4, array($this, 'fireFragmentComplete'));

Parameter List

 'fragmentnumber'
 'fragmentcount'
 'interrupt'

Remarks

If, when CreateObject is called, more than SimpleUploadLimit bytes of upload data are present, the class will automatically split the upload data up into parts and perform a multipart upload. During the overall upload process, this event will fire after each part is uploaded, providing an indication of overall upload progress.

FragmentNumber is the number of the current part that has completed. This value starts at 1.

FragmentCount is the total number of parts that will be uploaded.

Interrupt can be set to true to interrupt the upload. The upload may be resumed later.

Prefix is the common prefix.

Progress Event (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Fires during an upload or download to indicate transfer progress.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireProgress($param);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_register_callback($res, 11, array($this, 'fireProgress'));

Parameter List

 'direction'
 'bytestransferred'
 'totalbytes'
 'percentdone'

Remarks

This event fires during an upload or download to indicate the progress of the transfer of the entire request. By default, this event will fire each time PercentDone increases by one percent; the ProgressStep configuration setting can be used to alter this behavior.

Direction indicates whether the transfer is an upload (0) or a download (1).

BytesTransferred reflects the number of bytes that have been transferred so far, or 0 if the transfer is starting (however, see note below).

TotalBytes reflects the total number of bytes that are to be transferred, or -1 if the total is unknown. This amount includes the size of everything in the request like HTTP headers.

PercentDone reflects the overall progress of the transfer, or -1 if the progress cannot be calculated.

Note: By default, the class tracks transfer progress absolutely. If a transfer is interrupted and later resumed, the values reported by this event upon and after resumption will account for the data that was transferred before the interruption.

For example, if 10MB of data was successfully transferred before the interruption, then this event will fire with a BytesTransferred value of 10485760 (10MB) when the transfer is first resumed, and then continue to fire with successively greater values as usual.

This behavior can be changed by disabling the ProgressAbsolute configuration setting, in which case the class will treat resumed transfers as "new" transfers. In this case, the BytesTransferred parameter will always be 0 the first time this event fires, regardless of whether the transfer is new or being resumed.

SSLServerAuthentication Event (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireSSLServerAuthentication($param);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_register_callback($res, 12, array($this, 'fireSSLServerAuthentication'));

Parameter List

 'certencoded'
 'certsubject'
 'certissuer'
 'status'
 'accept'

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireSSLStatus($param);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_register_callback($res, 13, array($this, 'fireSSLStatus'));

Parameter List

 'message'

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

StartTransfer Event (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

This event fires when a document starts transferring (after the headers).

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireStartTransfer($param);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_register_callback($res, 14, array($this, 'fireStartTransfer'));

Parameter List

 'direction'

Remarks

The StartTransfer event is fired when the document text starts transferring from the server to the local host.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

Transfer Event (CloudStorage_IBMStorage Class)

Fired while a document transfers (delivers document).

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireTransfer($param);

Procedural Interface

cloudstorage_ibmstorage_register_callback($res, 15, array($this, 'fireTransfer'));

Parameter List

 'direction'
 'bytestransferred'
 'percentdone'
 'text'

Remarks

The Text parameter contains the portion of the document text being received. It is empty if data are being posted to the server.

The BytesTransferred parameter contains the number of bytes transferred in this Direction since the beginning of the document text (excluding HTTP response headers).

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.

Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.

Config Settings (IBMStorage Class)
