Uploading an object using simple upload

Feature description

This API (PUT Object) is used to upload an object smaller than 5 GB to a specified bucket. To call this API, you need to have permission to write the bucket. If the object size is larger than 5 GB, please use Multipart Upload or Advanced APIs for the upload.

Note：

• The key (filename) cannot end with /; otherwise, it will be identified as a folder.
• Each root account (AAPID) can have up to 1,000 bucket ACLs and an unlimited number of object ACLs. If you do not need an ACL for an object, you can choose not to configure an ACL for the object during upload. In this way, the object will inherit the permissions of its bucket by default.
• After an object is uploaded, you can use the same key to generate a pre-signed URL, which can be shared with other clients for downloading (to download, please use the GET method. The detailed API description is shown below). If your file is set to private-read, note that the pre-signed URL will only be valid for a certain period of time.

Use case

Simple upload is suitable for uploading small files.

const filePath = "temp-file-to-upload" // Local file path
cos.putObject({
   Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /* Required */
   Region: 'COS_REGION',    /* Required */
   Key: 'exampleobject', /*Required*/
   StorageClass: 'STANDARD',
   Body: fs.createReadStream(filePath), // Upload file object
   onProgress: function(progressData) {
       console.log(JSON.stringify(progressData));
   }
}, function(err, data) {
   console.log(err || data);
});

Upload the buffer as the file content:

cos.putObject({
   Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /* Required */
   Region: 'COS_REGION',    /* Required */
   Key: 'exampleobject', /*Required*/
   Body: Buffer.from('hello!'), /*Required*/
}, function(err, data) {
   console.log(err || data);
});

Upload a string as the file content:

cos.putObject({
   Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /* Required */
   Region: 'COS_REGION',    /* Required */
   Key: 'exampleobject', /*Required*/
   Body: 'hello!',
}, function(err, data) {
   console.log(err || data);
});

Upload a Base64-encoded string as the file content:

var base64Url = 'data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgo.....';
// Convert to Buffer for upload
var body = Buffer.from(base64Url.split(',')[1] , 'base64');
cos.putObject({
   Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /* Required */
   Region: 'COS_REGION',    /* Required */
   Key: 'exampleobject.png',              /* Required */
   Body: body,
}, function(err, data) {
   console.log(err || data);
});

cos.putObject({
   Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /* Required */
   Region: 'COS_REGION',    /* Required */
   Key: 'a/', /*Required*/
   Body: '',
}, function(err, data) {
   console.log(err || data);
});

Upload a file to a specified directory:

var folder = 'examplefolder/';
cos.putObject({
  Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /* Required */
  Region: 'COS_REGION',     /* Bucket region. Required */
  Key: folder + 'exampleobject',              /* Required */
  Body: fileObject, // Upload the file object.
  onProgress: function(progressData) {
      console.log(JSON.stringify(progressData));
  }
}, function(err, data) {
  console.log(err || data);
});

Feature description

This API (OPTIONS Object) is used to send a pre-flight request for the CORS configuration of an object. Before making a real CORS request, you can send an OPTIONS request that includes the source origin, HTTP method, and headers to COS for it to determine whether a real CORS request can be sent. If there is no CORS configuration, "403 Forbidden" will be returned. You can enable CORS for a bucket using the PUT Bucket cors API.

Use case

cos.optionsObject({
   Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /* Required */
   Region: 'COS_REGION',    /* Required */
   Key: 'exampleobject', /*Required*/

Copying objects

Feature description

This API (PUT Object - Copy) is used to create a copy of an existing COS object, that is, an object is copied from the source path (object key) to the destination path (object key). During the copy, object metadata and the ACLs can be modified.
You can use this API to create a copy, modify object metadata (the source object and destination file have the same attributes), and move or rename the object (first copy the object, and then call the deletion API separately).

Note：

We recommend that you use this API to download an object of 1 MB-5 GB. For objects greater than 5 GB, please use the advanced copy API Slice Copy File.

Use case

cos.putObjectCopy({
   Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /*Required*/
   Region: 'COS_REGION',/*Required*/
   Key: 'exampleobject', /*Required*/
   CopySource: 'sourcebucket-1250000000.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/sourceObject', /*Required*/

Uploading a part

Feature description

This API (Upload Part) is used to upload parts after a multipart upload is initialized. It can upload up to 10,000 parts of 1 MB to 5 GB for a multipart upload.

When you use the Initiate Multipart Upload API to initiate a multipart upload, you can obtain the uploadId. This ID uniquely identifies the part and its position in the entire object.

Every time you call the `Upload Part` API, you need to pass `partNumber` (the part number) and `uploadId`. You can upload multiple parts out of order.

When the `uploadId` and `partNumber` of a new part are the same as those of a previously uploaded part, the old part will be overwritten. If the `uploadId` does not exist, the 404 error, "NoSuchUpload", will be returned.

Use case

const filePath = "temp-file-to-upload" // Local file path
cos.multipartUpload({

Completing a multipart upload

Feature description

This API is used to complete a multipart upload operation. After all parts are uploaded via the Upload Part API, you need to call this API to complete the multipart upload. When using this API, you need to specify the PartNumber and ETag of each part in the request body for the part information to be verified.
As the parts need to be merged after they are uploaded, and the merge takes several minutes, when the merge starts, COS will immediately return status code "200" and periodically return space information during the merge process to keep the connection active until the merge is completed. After that, COS will return the content of the merged parts in the body.

• If the uploaded part size is below 1 MB, "400 EntityTooSmall" will be returned when this API is called.
• If the uploaded part numbers are not continuous, "400 InvalidPart" will be returned when this API is called.
• If the part information entries in the request body are not sorted by number in ascending order, "400 InvalidPartOrder" will be returned when this API is called.
• If the UploadId does not exist, "404 NoSuchUpload" will be returned when this API is called.

Note：

We recommend you either complete or abort a multipart upload as early as possible, as the uploaded parts of an incomplete multipart upload will take up storage capacity and incur storage fees.

Use case

cos.multipartComplete({
   Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000', /* Required */
   Region: 'COS_REGION',    /* Required */
   Key: 'exampleobject', /*Required*/

Multipart download

Feature description

This API is used to implement multipart download. It supports concurrent part download.

Method prototype

Multipart download sample:

var Key = 'test.zip';
cos.downloadFile({
  Bucket: 'examplebucket-1250000000',
  Region: 'ap-beijing,
  Key: Key,
  FilePath: './' + Key, // Local path
  ChunkSize: 1024 * 1024 * 8, // Part size
  ParallelLimit: 5, // Number of concurrent parts
  RetryTimes: 3, // Number of retries for multipart download failures
  onTaskReady: function (taskId) {
      console.log(taskId);
  },
  onProgress: function (progressData) {
      console.log(JSON.stringify(progressData));
  },
}, function (err, data) {
  console.log(err || data);
});
// Cancel the download task.
// cos.emit('inner-kill-task', {TaskId: '123'});

Upload queue

The SDK for Node.js records all the upload tasks initiated with putObject and sliceUploadFile in an upload queue. You can use the queue in the following ways:

1. Use cos.getTaskList to get the task list.
2. Use cos.pauseTask, cos.restartTask, and cos.cancelTask to perform operations on upload tasks.
3. Use cos.on('list-update', callback); to monitor changes in the list and the upload progress.

For a complete sample of how to use the upload queue, please see Queue Demo.

Canceling an upload task

This API cancels an upload task by taskId.

Use case

var taskId = 'xxxxx';                   /* Required */
cos.cancelTask(taskId);

Parameter description

Parameter	Description	Type	Required
taskId	ID of the upload task. When sliceUploadFile is called, TaskReady in the callback will return the taskId of the upload task.	String	Yes

Suspending an upload task

This API is used to suspend an upload task by taskId.

Use case

var taskId = 'xxxxx';                   /* Required */
cos.pauseTask(taskId);

Parameter description

Parameter	Description	Type	Required
taskId	ID of the upload task. When sliceUploadFile is called, TaskReady in the callback will return the taskId of the upload task.	String	Yes

Restarting an upload task

This API is used to restart an upload task by taskId. You can restart tasks that have been manually suspended through the pauseTask API, or automatically suspended due to an upload error.

Use case

var taskId = 'xxxxx';                   /* Required */
cos.restartTask(taskId);

Parameter description

Parameter	Description	Type	Required
taskId	ID of the upload task. When `sliceUploadFile` is called, `TaskReady` in the callback will return the `taskId` of the upload task.	String	Yes
