The BackblazeB2 class offers an easy to use interface for Backblaze's B2 Cloud Storage service.

Syntax

class cloudstorage.BackblazeB2

Remarks

The BackblazeB2 class provides an easy-to-use API for the Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage service. Capabilities include uploading and downloading files, bucket management, strong encryption support, and more.

Authentication

Authentication works by exchanging a known application key (which consists of a key Id and the key string itself) for an authorization token which is then used to authorize all further requests. The authentication process also returns information about the account, the capabilities and restrictions associated with the application key, and other details that help the class interact with the Backblaze B2 API.

To authenticate the class with the server, supply an application key using the application_key_id and application_key properties, and then call authorize. This will populate the account property with the aforementioned information, including the account_auth_token.

Eventually, the authorization token returned during the authentication process will expire, at which point it should be exchanged for a new one by calling authorize again.

Usage

Once authenticated, you can start interacting with the Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage service. The following list shows some of the methods used to accomplish common tasks:

• Bucket management: list_buckets, get_bucket_info, create_bucket, update_bucket, delete_bucket
• File management: list_files, list_file_versions, get_file_info, upload_file, copy_file, download_file, download_file_by_id, hide_file, delete_file, delete_file_version
• Multipart uploads: list_multipart_uploads, start_multipart_upload, complete_multipart_upload, abort_multipart_upload, list_parts, upload_part, copy_part
• Application key management: list_app_keys, create_app_key, delete_app_key
• Sharing files: get_download_auth_token

Refer to the complete API, below, for more information.

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property can be set before calling upload_file, start_multipart_upload, or (if the SendMetadataOnCopy configuration setting is enabled) copy_file to have its value submitted as the file's Content-Type header value.

If this property is empty, the class will send b2/x-auto, which instructs the server to automatically determine the content type based on the file's extension (or set it to application/octet-stream if it cannot).

delimiter Property

The delimiter string to use when listing files.

Syntax

def get_delimiter() -> str: ...
def set_delimiter(value: str) -> None: ...

delimiter = property(get_delimiter, set_delimiter)

Default Value

""

Remarks

If this property is non-empty when list_files or list_file_versions is called, any items whose names contain the same string between the specified prefix and the first occurrence of the specified delimiter that follow will be rolled up into a virtual "folder" element, which is returned in place of the individual files themselves.

If a particular item is a "folder" instead of an actual file or file version, then the file_kind property will be set to folder. The same is also true of the on_file_list event's Kind parameter.

File Hierarchy Traversal

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

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

With delimiter set to /, we can set prefix to successively "deeper" values before calling list_files or list_file_versions for the following effect:

encryption_algorithm Property

The encryption algorithm.

Syntax

def get_encryption_algorithm() -> int: ...
def set_encryption_algorithm(value: int) -> None: ...

The encryption password.

Syntax

def get_encryption_password() -> str: ...
def set_encryption_password(value: str) -> None: ...

encryption_password = property(get_encryption_password, set_encryption_password)

Default Value

""

Remarks

If this property is populated when upload_file or download_file is called, the class will attempt to encrypt or decrypt the data before uploading or after downloading it.

The class uses the value specified here to generate the necessary encryption Key and IV values using the PKCS5 password digest algorithm. This provides a simpler alternative to creating and managing Key and IV values directly.

However, it is also possible to explicitly specify the Key and IV values to use by setting the EncryptionKey and EncryptionIV configuration settings. This may be necessary if, e.g., the data needs to be encrypted/decrypted by another utility which generates Key and IV values differently.

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 local_host 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).

File Hierarchy Traversal

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

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

With delimiter set to /, we can set prefix to successively "deeper" values before calling list_files or list_file_versions for the following effect:

Syntax

def get_ssl_server_cert_subject() -> str: ...

ssl_server_cert_subject = property(get_ssl_server_cert_subject, None)

Default Value

""

Remarks

The subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.

If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

ssl_server_cert_encoded = property(get_ssl_server_cert_encoded, None)

Default Value

""

Remarks

The certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The ssl_server_cert_store and ssl_server_cert_subject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When ssl_server_cert_encoded is set, a search is initiated in the current ssl_server_cert_store for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, ssl_server_cert_subject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, ssl_server_cert_subject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only.

start_byte Property

The byte offset from which to resume the upload or download.

Syntax

def get_start_byte() -> int: ...
def set_start_byte(value: int) -> None: ...

start_byte = property(get_start_byte, set_start_byte)

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property specifies the byte offset from which to resume an automatic multipart upload initiated by upload_file, or a download initiated by download_file or download_file_by_id. Refer to those methods' documentation for more information about resuming uploads and downloads.

timeout Property

The timeout for the class.

Syntax

def get_timeout() -> int: ...
def set_timeout(value: int) -> None: ...

timeout = property(get_timeout, set_timeout)

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 do_events 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.

version_marker Property

A marker indicating what page of file versions to return next.

Syntax

def get_version_marker() -> str: ...
def set_version_marker(value: str) -> None: ...

version_marker = property(get_version_marker, set_version_marker)

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property will be populated when list_file_versions is called if the results are paged and there are more pages. To list all file versions, continue to call list_file_versions until this property returns empty string.

Refer to list_file_versions for more information.

abort_multipart_upload Method

Aborts a multipart upload.

Syntax

def abort_multipart_upload(multipart_file_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method aborts the multipart upload of the file specified by MultipartFileId, and invalidates the given Id.

When this method is called, all parts that have been uploaded for the multipart upload are deleted from the server.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

add_metadata Method

Adds a metadata item to the Metadata properties.

Syntax

def add_metadata(name: str, value: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method adds a metadata item with the given Name and Value to the metadata properties. Name may be up to 50 characters in length, and must consist solely of letters, numbers, hyphens (-), and underscores (_). The server stores all metadata item names in lowercase.

A metadata item's name cannot start with b2- unless said name is one those explicitly defined by the Backblaze B2 API documentation. Keep in mind that the value of such a metadata item must comply with the format specified by the Backblaze B2 API documentation as well, otherwise the server will reject it.

Note that there is a limit of 10 metadata items per bucket and per file; the class does not enforce this limit, but the server will return an error if it is exceeded. For files specifically, any value set using the ClientModifiedTime configuration setting will count towards this limit; refer that setting's documentation for more information.

add_query_param Method

Adds a query parameter to the QueryParams properties.

Syntax

def add_query_param(name: str, value: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method is used to add a query parameter to the query_params 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.

authorize Method

Authenticates the class with the server using the current application key and Id.

Syntax

def authorize() -> None: ...

Remarks

This method authenticates the class with the server using the values held by application_key and application_key_id. A successful call to this method will clear and repopulate the following:

• account property
• APIURL configuration setting
• DownloadURL configuration setting
• FragmentSize configuration setting (if necessary; refer to its documentation for more information)
• SimpleUploadLimit configuration setting (if necessary; refer to its documentation for more information)

The class must authenticate with the server before any other requests can be attempted; the class will call it automatically if necessary. As part of the authentication process, the server returns an authorization token which must be used to authorize all further requests; this token is valid for up to 24 hours. When it expires, this method must be called again.

complete_multipart_upload Method

Completes a multipart upload by assembling the previously uploaded parts.

Syntax

def complete_multipart_upload(multipart_file_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method completes the multipart upload of the file specified by MultipartFileId. The server will assemble all of the parts that have been uploaded into a single file. (Note: The assembled file keeps MultipartFileId as its Id.)

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

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

config Method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...

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.

copy_file Method

Copies a file.

Syntax

def copy_file(src_file_id: str, dest_bucket_id: str, dest_file_name: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

This method copies the file version specified by SrcFileId to the bucket specified by DestBucketId with the name DestFileName. The Id of the newly-created file is returned. If DestBucketId is empty, the source file's bucket is used as the destination bucket.

DestFileName is subject to the same restrictions described in the upload_file method's documentation; refer to it for more information. If a file named DestFileName already exists in the destination bucket, a new version of it is created.

If the SendMetadataOnCopy configuration setting is enabled, and the content_type property, the metadata properties, and/or the ClientModifiedTime configuration setting are non-empty, then their values will be applied to the destination file. Otherwise, the server will copy the source file's content type and metadata to the destination file.

Finally, note that this method can only be used to copy files up to 5GB in size (or, if range is non-empty, a range of up to 5GB of data from a larger file). To copy more than 5GB of data, start a new multipart upload with start_multipart_upload, and then use the copy_part method to copy the desired data in parts.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles and (if the source file's bucket kind is allPrivate) readFiles capabilities to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

copy_part Method

Copies the specified file as part of a multipart upload.

Syntax

def copy_part(src_file_id: str, multipart_file_id: str, part_number: int) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method copies the file version specified by SrcFileId to a new part in the multipart upload of the file specified by MultipartFileId. The part's number is specified by PartNumber; it must be a value in the range 1 to 10000, inclusive. If the specified multipart upload already has a part with the given PartNumber, it is replaced with the one created by this request.

All parts must be between 5MB and 5GB in size (except for the last part, which can be as small as 1 byte). The range property can optionally be set before calling this method to copy only a specific range of data from the specified source file.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles and (if the source file's bucket kind is allPrivate) readFiles capabilities to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

create_app_key Method

Creates a new application key.

Syntax

def create_app_key(key_name: str, capabilities: str, allowed_bucket_id: str, allowed_prefix: str, validity_duration: int) -> str: ...

Remarks

This method creates a new application key named KeyName with the specified Capabilities. If successful, this method returns a string containing the newly-created application key's Id, followed by the key itself, separated by a newline (\n) character; for example:

[application_key_id]
[application_key]

The string passed for Capabilities must be formatted as a comma-separated list of one or more of the following:

To restrict the new application key to a specific bucket, pass the bucket's Id for AllowedBucketId. To further restrict it to files with a specific prefix within that bucket, pass said prefix for AllowedPrefix. It is not possible to apply a prefix restriction without a bucket restriction.

The ValidityDuration parameter specifies how many seconds the new application key will be valid for. The maximum valid value is 86400000 (1000 days); values less than 1 will cause the application key to remain valid indefinitely.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeKeys capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

create_bucket Method

Creates a new bucket.

Syntax

def create_bucket(bucket_name: str, kind: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

This method creates a new bucket named BucketName of the specified Kind. Valid values for Kind are allPrivate (default if empty) and allPublic. Each account may have up to 100 buckets.

The value passed for BucketName must comply with the following restrictions:

• Must be between 6 and 50 characters long (inclusive).
• Must consist solely of letters, digits, and hyphens (-).
• Cannot start with the string b2-.
• Must be globally unique (i.e., no two accounts may have a bucket with the same name) when compared case-insensitively.

If any items are present in the metadata properties, they will also be included in the request and applied to the newly-created bucket. Keep in mind that the server enforces a limit of 10 metadata items per bucket.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeBuckets capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

delete_app_key Method

Deletes an application key.

Syntax

def delete_app_key(key_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method deletes the application key specified by KeyId.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the deleteKeys capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

delete_bucket Method

Deletes a bucket.

Syntax

def delete_bucket(bucket_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method deletes the bucket specified by BucketId. A bucket must be completely empty to be deleted.

Note that bucket names are global, and it may not be possible to recreate a deleted bucket if its name is taken by another user in the meantime.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the deleteBuckets capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

delete_file Method

Deletes all versions of a file.

Syntax

def delete_file(bucket_id: str, file_name: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method deletes all versions of the file named FileName from the bucket specified by BucketId. If the latest "version" of the specified file is an incomplete multipart upload, the multipart upload is aborted.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the listFiles and deleteFiles capabilities to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

Note: This method is offered as a convenience, as the Backblaze B2 REST API does not technically provide a way to delete all versions of a file using a single request. When this method is called, the class uses list_file_versions to obtain a list of all versions of the specified file, and then uses delete_file_version to delete each one, in order from oldest to newest. If any one request made during this process fails, this method will fail immediately. This process does not alter the files or file_marker properties, nor does it cause the on_file_list event to fire.

delete_file_version Method

Deletes a file version.

Syntax

def delete_file_version(file_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method deletes the file version specified by FileId, regardless of whether said version is an actual file or a hide marker

If the most recent version of a file is deleted, and older versions of the file exist, then the most recent older version will become the "current" version. If said version is a hide marker, then the file will become "hidden"; refer to hide_file for more information.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the deleteFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

download_file Method

Downloads a file by name.

Syntax

def download_file(bucket_name: str, file_name: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method downloads the latest version of the file named FileName from the bucket named BucketName. The range property can optionally be set before calling this method to download a specific range of data from the file.

This method can be used to download files that are owned by other accounts, so long as an appropriate download authorization token and download URL are supplied using the DownloadAuthToken and DownloadURL configuration settings; refer to their documentation for more information.

If local_file is set, the file data will be saved to the specified location; otherwise, the file data will be held by file_data.

To download and decrypt an encrypted file, set encryption_algorithm and encryption_password before calling this method.

Download Notes

In the simplest use-case, downloading a file looks like this: b2.LocalFile = "../MyData.zip"; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById().

Resuming Downloads

The class also supports resuming failed downloads by using the start_byte property. If a download is interrupted, set start_byte to the appropriate offset before calling this method to resume the download. string downloadFile = "../MyData.zip"; b2.LocalFile = downloadFile; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById(). //The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download: //Get the size of the partially downloaded file b2.StartByte = new FileInfo(downloadFile).Length; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById().

Resuming Encrypted File Downloads

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

If local_file 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 start_byte, to allow the remainder of the encrypted data to be downloaded. Once the encrypted data is downloaded it will be decrypted and written to local_file. b2.LocalFile = "../MyData.zip"; b2.EncryptionPassword = "password"; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById(). //The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download: //Get the size of the partially downloaded temp file b2.StartByte = new FileInfo(b2.Config("DownloadTempFile")).Length; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById().

The currently-authenticated application key must have the readFiles capability (unless the bucket is public) to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

download_file_by_id Method

Downloads a file by Id.

Syntax

def download_file_by_id(file_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method downloads the file version specified by FileId. The range property can optionally be set before calling this method to download a specific range of data from the file.

If local_file is set, the file data will be saved to the specified location; otherwise, the file data will be held by file_data.

To download and decrypt an encrypted file, set encryption_algorithm and encryption_password before calling this method.

Download Notes

In the simplest use-case, downloading a file looks like this: b2.LocalFile = "../MyData.zip"; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById().

Resuming Downloads

The class also supports resuming failed downloads by using the start_byte property. If a download is interrupted, set start_byte to the appropriate offset before calling this method to resume the download. string downloadFile = "../MyData.zip"; b2.LocalFile = downloadFile; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById(). //The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download: //Get the size of the partially downloaded file b2.StartByte = new FileInfo(downloadFile).Length; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById().

Resuming Encrypted File Downloads

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

If local_file 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 start_byte, to allow the remainder of the encrypted data to be downloaded. Once the encrypted data is downloaded it will be decrypted and written to local_file. b2.LocalFile = "../MyData.zip"; b2.EncryptionPassword = "password"; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById(). //The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download: //Get the size of the partially downloaded temp file b2.StartByte = new FileInfo(b2.Config("DownloadTempFile")).Length; b2.DownloadFile("MyBucket", "data.zip"); // Or, DownloadFileById().

The currently-authenticated application key must have the readFiles capability (unless the bucket is public) to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

get_bucket_info Method

Gets a bucket's information and metadata.

Syntax

def get_bucket_info(bucket_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method gets information and metadata for the bucket specified by BucketId.

Calling this method will fire the on_bucket_list and on_metadata_list events, and will re-populate the buckets and metadata collection properties.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the listBuckets capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

get_download_auth_token Method

Create a download authorization token for one or more files in a bucket.

Syntax

def get_download_auth_token(allowed_bucket_id: str, allowed_prefix: str, validity_duration: int) -> str: ...

Remarks

This method creates and returns a download authorization token for the files in the bucket specified by AllowedBucketId whose names start with AllowedPrefix. The newly-created token will remain valid for the number of seconds specified by ValidityDuration, which must be a value in the range 1 to 604800 (1 week), inclusive.

Download authorization tokens created using this method can be used by anybody to download an applicable file by name; they cannot be used to download a file by Id. Refer to the download_file method for more information.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the shareFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

get_file_info Method

Gets a file's information and metadata.

Syntax

def get_file_info(file_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method gets information and metadata for the file version specified by FileId (which must be a real file version, or a hide marker, not a multipart upload).

Calling this method will fire the on_file_list and on_metadata_list events, and will re-populate the files and metadata collection properties.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the readFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

hide_file Method

Hides a file.

Syntax

def hide_file(bucket_id: str, file_name: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

This method hides the file named FileName in the bucket specified by BucketId by creating a special version of the file called a hide marker.

If the latest version of a file is a hide marker, then the file will not appear in the results returned by list_files, nor can it be downloaded by name using download_file. However:

• Any version of the file (excluding hide markers) can still be downloaded directly using download_file_by_id.
• All versions of the file can still be deleted, either all at once using delete_file, or individually using delete_file_version.
• All versions of the file will still appear in the results returned by list_file_versions, and can still be queried individually using get_file_info.

To unhide a file, simply delete the hide marker using delete_file_version.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

interrupt Method

This method interrupts the current method.

Syntax

def interrupt() -> None: ...

Remarks

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

list_app_keys Method

Lists the account's application keys.

Syntax

def list_app_keys() -> None: ...

Remarks

This method lists the application keys associated with the account. Note that the account's master application key is not included in the results.

Calling this method will fire the on_app_key_list event once for each application key, and will also populate the app_keys properties.

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

The MaxAppKeyResults configuration setting can be used to control the maximum number of results returned each time this method is called.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the listKeys capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

list_buckets Method

Lists all buckets in the account.

Syntax

def list_buckets() -> None: ...

Remarks

This method lists all buckets in the account.

Calling this method will fire the on_bucket_list event once for each bucket, and will also populate the buckets properties. If the ListWithMetadata configuration setting is enabled, the on_metadata_list event will also be fired, once for each metadata item associated with each bucket.

If the currently-authenticated application key is restricted to a specific bucket (indicated by the account_allowed_bucket_id property being non-empty), the results will only include information for that bucket.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the listBuckets capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

list_files Method

Lists the files in a bucket.

Syntax

def list_files(bucket_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method lists the files in the bucket specified by BucketId.

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

If the currently-authenticated application key is restricted to a specific file name prefix (indicated by the account_allowed_prefix property being non-empty), then the prefix property will automatically be set to that prefix if it is empty when this method is called.

Calling this method will fire the on_file_list event once for each file, and will also populate the files properties. If the ListWithMetadata configuration setting is enabled, the on_metadata_list event will also be fired, once for each metadata item associated with each file.

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

The currently-authenticated application key must have the listFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

File Hierarchy Traversal

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

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

With delimiter set to /, we can set prefix to successively "deeper" values before calling list_files or list_file_versions for the following effect:

list_file_versions Method

Lists the file versions in a bucket.

Syntax

def list_file_versions(bucket_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method lists the file versions in the bucket specified by BucketId.

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

If the currently-authenticated application key is restricted to a specific file name prefix (indicated by the account_allowed_prefix property being non-empty), then the prefix property will automatically be set to that prefix if it is empty when this method is called.

Calling this method will fire the on_file_list event once for each file version, and will also populate the files properties. If the ListWithMetadata configuration setting is enabled, the on_metadata_list event will also be fired, once for each metadata item associated with each file version.

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

The currently-authenticated application key must have the listFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

File Hierarchy Traversal

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

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

With delimiter set to /, we can set prefix to successively "deeper" values before calling list_files or list_file_versions for the following effect:

list_multipart_uploads Method

Lists the in-progress multipart uploads in a bucket.

Syntax

def list_multipart_uploads(bucket_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method lists the in-progress multipart uploads in the bucket specified by BucketId.

Before calling this method, the prefix property may be set in order to restrict the results to only the multipart uploads whose file names begin with the a given string.

If the currently-authenticated application key is restricted to a specific file name prefix (indicated by the account_allowed_prefix property being non-empty), then the prefix property will automatically be set to that prefix if it is empty when this method is called.

Calling this method will fire the on_file_list event once for each multipart upload, and will also populate the files properties. If the ListWithMetadata configuration setting is enabled, the on_metadata_list event will also be fired, once for each metadata item associated with each multipart upload.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the listFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

list_parts Method

Lists a multipart upload's parts.

Syntax

def list_parts(multipart_file_id: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method lists the parts that have been created for the multipart file upload specified by MultipartFileId.

Calling this method will fire the on_part_list 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 part_marker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until part_marker 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.

The MaxPartResults configuration setting can be used to control the maximum number of results returned each time this method is called.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

reset Method

Resets the class to its initial state.

Syntax

def reset() -> None: ...

Remarks

This method resets the class to its initial state.

send_custom_request Method

Sends a custom request to the Backblaze B2 API.

Syntax

def send_custom_request(http_method: str, operation: str, request_body: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method can be used to send arbitrary requests to the Backblaze B2 API.

Valid values for HttpMethod are:

• GET (default if empty)
• HEAD
• POST

The value passed for Operation must be one of the API operations described in the Backblaze B2 REST API documentation (e.g., b2_list_buckets).

Usage

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

1. Builds a request URL, including query parameters, as follows:
   • The specified Operation is appended to the base Backblaze B2 API URL (refer to the APIURL configuration setting for more information).
   • All query parameters in the query_params properties are added to the request URL.
2. Sends the request using the specified HttpMethod, the request URL built in step 1, the header information built from account_auth_token and other_headers, and the given RequestBody (if non-empty).
3. Stores the response headers in the parsed_headers properties, and the response body in the specified local_file, or resource_data (using the same logic as download_file).

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

start_multipart_upload Method

Starts a new multipart upload.

Syntax

def start_multipart_upload(bucket_id: str, file_name: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

This method starts a new multipart upload for a file named FileName in the bucket specified by BucketId, and returns the Id of the newly-created multipart upload. This Id can then be used to call the following methods:

• upload_part
• copy_part
• list_parts
• complete_multipart_upload
• abort_multipart_upload

FileName is subject to the same restrictions described in the upload_file method's documentation; refer to it for more information. If a file named FileName already exists in the destination bucket, a new version of it is created.

The following information is also included in the request, and will be applied to the final file when the multipart upload is completed with complete_multipart_upload:

• All metadata items present in the metadata properties. Keep in mind that the server enforces a limit of 10 metadata items per file.
• If the ClientModifiedTime configuration setting is non-empty: an additional metadata item with its value (which does count towards the 10 item limit).
• The value of the content_type property.

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

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

update_bucket Method

Updates a bucket's kind and/or metadata.

Syntax

def update_bucket(bucket_id: str, new_kind: str, new_metadata: bool) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method updates the kind and/or metadata of the bucket specified by BucketId.

If NewKind is non-empty, it must be allPrivate or allPublic. If NewKind is empty, the bucket's kind remains unchanged.

If NewMetadata is True, the bucket's current metadata items are replaced with those in the metadata properties (or cleared, if said properties are empty). If NewMetadata is False, the bucket's current metadata remains unchanged. Keep in mind that the server enforces a limit of 10 metadata items per bucket.

If NewKind is empty and NewMetadata is false, this method does nothing.

The IfRevision setting can optionally be set before calling this method to ensure that the requested changes are only made if the bucket's current revision matches the given one.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeBuckets capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

upload_file Method

Uploads a file.

Syntax

def upload_file(bucket_id: str, file_name: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

This method uploads a new file named FileName to the bucket specified by BucketId, and returns the Id of the newly-created file.

The value passed for FileName must comply with the following restrictions:

• Cannot contain non-printable or DEL characters (i.e., character codes below 32 or equal to 127, respectively).
• Cannot contain backslashes (\).
• Cannot begin or end with a slash (/), and cannot contain two subsequent slashes (//).
• No segment (i.e., a part between slashes) can be more than 250 bytes long (when UTF-8 encoded).
• The overall string can be no more than 1024 bytes long overall (when UTF-8 encoded).

If a file with the specified FileName already exists in the destination bucket, a new version of it is created.

The following information is also included in the request, and will be applied to the newly-created file:

• All metadata items present in the metadata properties. Keep in mind that the server enforces a limit of 10 metadata items per file.
• If the ClientModifiedTime configuration setting is non-empty: an additional metadata item with its value (which does count towards the 10 item limit).
• The value of the content_type property.

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

To encrypt the file before uploading it, set encryption_algorithm and encryption_password.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

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 start_multipart_upload, upload_part, and complete_multipart_upload internally; tracks upload state information using the ResumableUploadState configuration setting; and tracks how much data has been uploaded using the start_byte property. The on_fragment_complete 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 start_byte contain the same values as they did when the upload was interrupted.

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

upload_part Method

Uploads a multipart upload part.

Syntax

def upload_part(multipart_file_id: str, part_number: int) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method uploads a new part for the multipart file upload specified by MultipartFileId. The part's number is specified by PartNumber; it must be a value in the range 1 to 10000, inclusive. If the specified multipart upload already has a part with the given PartNumber, it is replaced with the one created by this request.

The data to upload is taken from either local_file or file_data (whichever data is found in first, when checked in that order). All parts must be between 5MB and 5GB in size (except for the last part, which can be as small as 1 byte).

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeFiles capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the account_capabilities property for more information.

Remarks

The on_end_transfer event is fired when the document text finishes transferring from the server to the local host.

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

on_error Event

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

class BackblazeB2ErrorEventParams(object):
  @property
  def error_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def description() -> str: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property
def on_error() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2ErrorEventParams], None]: ...
@on_error.setter
def on_error(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2ErrorEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The on_error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class fails with an error.

The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

Id reflects the Id of the file. Always empty when Kind is folder.

Name reflects the name of the file.

BucketId reflects the Id of the bucket that the file is in.

Size reflects the size of the file, in bytes. Always 0 when Kind is folder, hide, or start.

ContentType reflects the content type of the file. Always application/x-bz-hide-marker when Kind is hide; and empty when Kind is folder.

CreatedTime reflects the file's creation time, in milliseconds relative to the Unix epoch. Always 0 when Kind is folder.

ModifiedTime reflects the file's last modified time, in milliseconds relative to the Unix epoch. (Note that this parameter will only be populated if a src_last_modified_millis metadata item is included for the file, and if that metadata item's value can be parsed as a 64-bit integer; otherwise, it will be -1. Refer to the ClientModifiedTime configuration setting for more information.)

Kind reflects the file's kind. Possible values are:

SHA1Hash reflects a hex-encoded SHA1 hash of the file's contents, or empty string if such a hash is not available. Always empty when Kind is folder or hide.

on_fragment_complete Event

Fires after each part in an automatic multipart upload is complete.

Syntax

class BackblazeB2FragmentCompleteEventParams(object):
  @property
  def fragment_number() -> int: ...

def on_fragment_complete() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2FragmentCompleteEventParams], None]: ...
@on_fragment_complete.setter
def on_fragment_complete(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2FragmentCompleteEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

If, when upload_file 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.

on_header Event

Fired every time a header line comes in.

Syntax

class BackblazeB2HeaderEventParams(object):
  @property
  def field() -> str: ...

  @property
  def value() -> str: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property

on_metadata_list Event

Fires once for each metadata item returned when bucket or file information and metadata is retrieved.

Syntax

class BackblazeB2MetadataListEventParams(object):
  @property
  def bucket_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def file_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def name() -> str: ...

  @property
  def value() -> str: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property
def on_metadata_list() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2MetadataListEventParams], None]: ...
@on_metadata_list.setter
def on_metadata_list(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2MetadataListEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event fires once for each metadata item returned when get_bucket_info or get_file_info is called. If the ListWithMetadata configuration setting is enabled, it also fires as metadata for each individual bucket or file is returned when list_buckets, list_files, list_file_versions, or list_multipart_uploads is called.

BucketId reflects the Id of the bucket that the file is in (if FileId is non-empty), or that the metadata item is associated with (if FileId is empty).

FileId, if non-empty, reflects the Id of the file that the metadata item is associated with.

Name reflects the name of the metadata item.

Value reflects the value of the metadata item.

on_part_list Event

Fires once for each part returned when listing a multipart upload's parts.

Syntax

class BackblazeB2PartListEventParams(object):
  @property
  def part_number() -> int: ...

  @property
  def multipart_file_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def size() -> int: ...

  @property
  def created_time() -> int: ...

  @property
  def sha1_hash() -> str: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property
def on_part_list() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2PartListEventParams], None]: ...
@on_part_list.setter
def on_part_list(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2PartListEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

on_progress Event

Fires during an upload or download to indicate transfer progress.

Syntax

class BackblazeB2ProgressEventParams(object):
  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

  @property
  def bytes_transferred() -> int: ...

  @property
  def total_bytes() -> int: ...

  @property
  def percent_done() -> int: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property
def on_progress() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2ProgressEventParams], None]: ...
@on_progress.setter
def on_progress(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2ProgressEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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.

on_ssl_server_authentication Event

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

class BackblazeB2SSLServerAuthenticationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cert_encoded() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def cert_subject() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_issuer() -> str: ...

  @property
  def status() -> str: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...
  @accept.setter
  def accept(value) -> None: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property
def on_ssl_server_authentication() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2SSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_server_authentication.setter
def on_ssl_server_authentication(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2SSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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.

on_ssl_status Event

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

class BackblazeB2SSLStatusEventParams(object):
  @property
  def message() -> str: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property
def on_ssl_status() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2SSLStatusEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_status.setter
def on_ssl_status(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2SSLStatusEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

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

on_start_transfer Event

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

Syntax

class BackblazeB2StartTransferEventParams(object):
  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property
def on_start_transfer() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2StartTransferEventParams], None]: ...
@on_start_transfer.setter
def on_start_transfer(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2StartTransferEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The on_start_transfer 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.

on_transfer Event

Fired while a document transfers (delivers document).

Syntax

class BackblazeB2TransferEventParams(object):
  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

  @property
  def bytes_transferred() -> int: ...

  @property
  def percent_done() -> int: ...

  @property
  def text() -> bytes: ...

# In class BackblazeB2:
@property
def on_transfer() -> Callable[[BackblazeB2TransferEventParams], None]: ...
@on_transfer.setter
def on_transfer(event_hook: Callable[[BackblazeB2TransferEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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.
