Environment dependencies

Applicable to WeChat Mini Program environment.

Install SDK

You can install the Mini Program SDK manually or using npm. The installation methods are as follows.

• Manual installation
  Copy the cos-wx-sdk-v5.js from the source code to the code directory of your mini program. The code can be referenced by the relative path:

  var COS = require('./cos-wx-sdk-v5.js')

• Installation via npm
  If the mini program code is packaged with webpack, you can install the dependency via npm:

  npm install cos-wx-sdk-v5

  The mini program code is referenced by var COS = require('cos-wx-sdk-v5');.

Preparations

1. Log in to the [COS Console] to create a bucket and obtain Bucket (bucket name) and Region (region name).
2. Obtain the SecretId and SecretKey for your project in Key Management on the console.

Compute a signature

If the signature computing is implemented at the frontend, SecretId and SecretKey can be exposed. For this reason, the signature computing is performed at the backend. The frontend obtains the temporary key via ajax from the backend. Add a permission verification of your website at the backend during the deployment.

Click here to see the examples of signatures in PHP and Node.js. For other languages, see Temporary Key Generation and Usage Guide.

Getting Started

Initialization

var cos = new COS({
    // ForcePathStyle: true. // If a lot of buckets are used, you can access the domain names by using suffix match so as to reduce the number of domain names configured in the whitelist. The domain name of the region where the bucket resides will be used when sending requests.
    getAuthorization: function (options, callback) {
        // Obtain the signature asynchronously
        wx.request({
            url: 'https://example.com/sts.php',
            data: {
                Method: options.Method,
                Key: options.Key
            },
            dataType: 'text',
            success: function (result) {
                var data = result.data;
                var credentials = data.credentials;
                callback({
                    TmpSecretId: credentials.tmpSecretId,
                    TmpSecretKey: credentials.tmpSecretKey,
                    XCosSecurityToken: credentials.sessionToken,
                    ExpiredTime: data.expiredTime, // The SDK will not call getAuthorization again before the ExpiredTime.
                });
            }
        });
    }
});

For more information about the initialization method, see the demo.

Create a bucket

cos.putBucket({
    Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000',
    Region: 'ap-beijing',
    Key: filename,
}, function (err, data) {
    console.log(err || data);
});

If you need to create a bucket in the mini program, but the bucket name is unknown, you cannot add the bucket name to the domain name whitelist. See FAQs。 for relevant solutions.

Query the bucket list

cos.getService(function (err, data) {
    console.log(err || data);
});

Upload an object

The upload API wx.uploadFile in Mini Program only supports POST requests, while the postObject API is needed for uploading files in SDK. If only the API for uploading files is needed in the mini program, it is recommended not to reference SDK. See the simple example demo.

// First select a file to obtain a temporary path
wx.chooseImage({
    count: 1, // The default value is 9
    sizeType: ['original'], // You can specify whether to use the original image or the compressed image. The original image is used by default.
    sourceType: ['album', 'camera'], // You can specify whether the source is the album or the camera, and both are used by default.
    success: function (res) {
        var filePath = res.tempFiles[0].path;
        var filename = filePath.substr(filePath.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
        cos.postObject({
            Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000',
            Region: 'ap-beijing',
            Key: filename,
            FilePath: filePath,
            onProgress: function (info) {
                console.log(JSON.stringify(info));
            }
        }, function (err, data) {
            console.log(err || data);
        });
    }
});

Query the object list

cos.getBucket({
    Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000',
    Region: 'ap-beijing',
    Prefix: 'exampledir/',
}, function (err, data) {
    console.log(err || data);
});

Obtain object Url

cos.getObjectUrl({
    Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000',
    Region: 'ap-beijing',
    Key: '1.png',
}, function (err, data) {
    console.log(err || data.Url);
});

Upload text content to the object

Uploading text content can be completed via the putObject API. The wx.request API is actually called in this case.

cos.putObject({
    Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000',
    Region: 'ap-beijing',
    Key: '1.txt',
    Body: 'hello',
    onProgress: function (info) {
        console.log(JSON.stringify(info));
    }
}, function (err, data) {
    console.log(err || data);
});

Read the text content of the object

cos.getObject({
    Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000',
    Region: 'ap-beijing',
    Key: '1.txt',
}, function (err, data) {
    console.log(err || data.Body);
});

Delete an object

cos.deleteObject({
    Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000',
    Region: 'ap-beijing',
    Key: '1.png',
}, function (err, data) {
    console.log(err || data.Body);
});
