Advanced APIs (recommended)

Uploading an object

The advanced upload API encapsulates both PUT Object (simple upload) and multipart upload APIs, and can automatically select the upload method based on file size. It also supports checkpoint restart for resuming a suspended multipart upload.

Sample 1. Uploading a local file

Objective-C

QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest* put = [QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest new];
// Local file path
NSURL* url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:@"file URL"];

// Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
put.bucket = @"examplebucket-1250000000";

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
put.object = @"exampleobject";

// Content of the object to be uploaded. You can pass in variables in `NSData*` or `NSURL*` format
put.body =  url;
// Monitor the upload progress
[put setSendProcessBlock:^(int64_t bytesSent,
                           int64_t totalBytesSent,
                           int64_t totalBytesExpectedToSend) {
    //      bytesSent                   Number of new bytes
    // totalBytesSent              Total number of bytes sent in the upload
    // totalBytesExpectedToSend    Target number of bytes expected to be sent in the upload
}];

// Monitor the upload result
[put setFinishBlock:^(id outputObject, NSError *error) {
    // outputObject returns information such as the Etag or custom headers in the response
    NSDictionary * result = (NSDictionary *)outputObject;
}];

[put setInitMultipleUploadFinishBlock:^(QCloudInitiateMultipartUploadResult *
                                        multipleUploadInitResult,
                                        QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectResumeData resumeData) {
    // This block will be called back after the Initiate Multipart Upload operation is complete so you can get resumeData and the uploadId
    NSString* uploadId = multipleUploadInitResult.uploadId;
}];

[[QCloudCOSTransferMangerService defaultCOSTransferManager] UploadObject:put];

Note：

• For the complete sample, go to GitHub.
• You can generate a download URL for the uploaded file using the same key. For detailed directions, see Generating a Pre-Signed Link. Please note that for private-read files, the download URL is only valid for a limited period of time.

Swift

let put:QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest = QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest<AnyObject>();

// Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
put.bucket = "examplebucket-1250000000";

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
put.object = "exampleobject";

// Content of the object to be uploaded. You can pass in variables in `NSData*` or `NSURL*` format
put.body = NSURL.fileURL(withPath: "Local File Path") as AnyObject;

// Monitor the upload result
put.setFinish { (result, error) in
    // Get the upload result
    if let result = result {
        // Etag of the file
        let eTag = result.eTag
    } else {
        print(error!);
    }
}

// Monitor the upload progress
put.sendProcessBlock = { (bytesSent, totalBytesSent,
    totalBytesExpectedToSend) in
    //      bytesSent                   Number of new bytes sent
    // totalBytesSent              Total number of bytes sent in the upload
    // totalBytesExpectedToSend    Target number of bytes expected to be sent in the upload
};
// Set the upload parameters
put.initMultipleUploadFinishBlock = {(multipleUploadInitResult, resumeData) in
    // This block will be called back after the Initiate Multipart Upload operation is complete so you can get resumeData and the uploadId
    if let multipleUploadInitResult = multipleUploadInitResult {
        let uploadId = multipleUploadInitResult.uploadId
    }
}

QCloudCOSTransferMangerService.defaultCOSTransferManager().uploadObject(put);

Note：

• For the complete sample, go to GitHub.
• You can generate a download URL for the uploaded file using the same key. For detailed directions, see Generating a Pre-Signed Link. Please note that for private-read files, the download URL is only valid for a limited period of time.

QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest* put = [QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest new];

// Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
put.bucket = @"examplebucket-1250000000";

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
put.object = @"exampleobject";

// Content of the object to be uploaded. You can pass in variables in `NSData*` or `NSURL*` format
put.body = [@"My Example Content" dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

// Monitor the upload progress
[put setSendProcessBlock:^(int64_t bytesSent,
                           int64_t totalBytesSent,
                           int64_t totalBytesExpectedToSend) {
    //      bytesSent                   Number of new bytes
    // totalBytesSent              Total number of bytes sent in the upload
    // totalBytesExpectedToSend    Target number of bytes expected to be sent in the upload
}];

// Monitor the upload result
[put setFinishBlock:^(id outputObject, NSError *error) {
    // `outputObject` contains all the HTTP response headers
    NSDictionary* info = (NSDictionary *) outputObject;
}];
[[QCloudCOSTransferMangerService defaultCOSTransferManager] UploadObject:put];

Note：

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
put.object = "exampleobject";

// Content of the object to be uploaded
let dataBody:NSData = "wrwrwrwrwrw".data(using: .utf8)! as NSData;
put.body = dataBody;

// Monitor the upload result
put.setFinish { (result, error) in
    // Get the upload result
    if let result = result {
        // Etag of the file
        let eTag = result.eTag
    } else {
        print(error!);
    }
}

// Monitor the upload progress
put.sendProcessBlock = { (bytesSent, totalBytesSent,
    totalBytesExpectedToSend) in

    //      bytesSent                   Number of new bytes sent
    // totalBytesSent              Total number of bytes sent in the upload
    // totalBytesExpectedToSend    Target number of bytes expected to be sent in the upload
};

• You can generate a download URL for the uploaded file using the same key. For detailed directions, see Generating a Pre-Signed Link. Please note that for private-read files, the download URL is only valid for a limited period of time.

Sample 5. Suspending, resuming and canceling an upload

Objective-C

To suspend an upload, use the code below:

NSError *error;
NSData *resmeData = [put cancelByProductingResumeData:&error];

To resume a suspended download, run the code below:

QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest *resumeRequest = [QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest requestWithRequestData:resmeData];
[[QCloudCOSTransferMangerService defaultCOSTransferManager] UploadObject:resumeRequest];

To cancel an upload, run this code:

// Abort the upload
[put abort:^(id outputObject, NSError *error) {

}];

Note：

• For the complete sample, go to GitHub.

Swift

To suspend an upload, use the code below:

var error : NSError?;
var uploadResumeData:Data = put.cancel(byProductingResumeData:&error) as Data;

To resume a suspended download, run the code below:

var resumeRequest = QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest<AnyObject>.init(request: uploadResumeData);
QCloudCOSTransferMangerService.defaultCOSTransferManager().uploadObject(resumeRequest);

To cancel an upload, run this code:

// Abort the upload
put.abort { (outputObject, error) in

}

Note：

• For the complete sample, go to GitHub.

Objective-C

for (int i = 0; i<20; i++) {
    QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest* put = [QCloudCOSXMLUploadObjectRequest new];

    // Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
    put.bucket = @"examplebucket-1250000000";

    // Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
    put.object = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"exampleobject-%d",i];

    // Content of the object to be uploaded. You can pass in variables in `NSData*` or `NSURL*` format
    put.body = [@"My Example Content" dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

    // Monitor the upload progress
    [put setSendProcessBlock:^(int64_t bytesSent,
                               int64_t totalBytesSent,
                               int64_t totalBytesExpectedToSend) {
        //      bytesSent                   Number of new bytes
        // totalBytesSent              Total number of bytes sent in the upload
        // totalBytesExpectedToSend    Target number of bytes expected to be sent in the upload
    }];

    // Monitor the upload result
    [put setFinishBlock:^(id outputObject, NSError *error) {
        // `outputObject` contains all the HTTP response headers
        NSDictionary* info = (NSDictionary *) outputObject;

    // Content of the object to be uploaded
    let dataBody:NSData = "wrwrwrwrwrw".data(using: .utf8)! as NSData;
    put.body = dataBody;

    // Monitor the upload result
    put.setFinish { (result, error) in
        // Get the upload result

    }

    // Monitor the upload progress
    put.sendProcessBlock = { (bytesSent, totalBytesSent,
        totalBytesExpectedToSend) in

        //      bytesSent                   Number of new bytes sent

        // totalBytesExpectedToSend    Target number of bytes expected to be sent in the upload
    };

    QCloudCOSTransferMangerService.defaultCOSTransferManager().uploadObject(put);
}

Copying an object

The advanced replication API encapsulates PUT Object - Copy, and the APIs for multipart replication to allow asynchronous requests for suspending, resuming and canceling a replication request.

Sample code

Objective-C

QCloudCOSXMLCopyObjectRequest* request = [[QCloudCOSXMLCopyObjectRequest alloc] init];

// Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
request.bucket = @"examplebucket-1250000000";

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
request.object = @"exampleobject";

// Bucket of the source file, which should be public-read, or your account should have access to
request.sourceBucket = @"sourcebucket-1250000000";

// Source file name
request.sourceObject = @"sourceObject";

// Source file APPID
request.sourceAPPID = @"1250000000";

// Source file’s region
request.sourceRegion= @"COS_REGION";

[request setFinishBlock:^(QCloudCopyObjectResult* result, NSError* error) {
    // outputObject returns information such as the Etag or custom headers in the response 
}];

// Note that for cross-region replication, the region used for `transferManager` must be the region of the destination bucket
[[QCloudCOSTransferMangerService defaultCOSTransferManager] CopyObject:request];

// Cancel copy
// To cancel the copy operation, call `cancel`
[request cancel];

Note：

For the complete sample, go to GitHub.

Swift

let copyRequest =  QCloudCOSXMLCopyObjectRequest.init();

// Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
copyRequest.bucket = "examplebucket-1250000000";

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
copyRequest.object = "exampleobject";

// Bucket of the source file, which should be public-read, or your account should have access to
// Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
copyRequest.sourceBucket = "sourcebucket-1250000000";

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
copyRequest.sourceObject = "sourceObject";

// Source file APPID
copyRequest.sourceAPPID = "1250000000";

// Source file’s region
copyRequest.sourceRegion = "COS_REGION";

copyRequest.setFinish { (copyResult, error) in
    if let copyResult = copyResult {
        // Etag of the file
        let eTag = copyResult.eTag
    } else {
        print(error!);
    }

}
// Note that for cross-region replication, the region used for `transferManager` must be the region of the destination bucket
QCloudCOSTransferMangerService.defaultCOSTransferManager().copyObject(copyRequest);

// Cancel copy
// To cancel the copy operation, call `cancel`
copyRequest.cancel();

Simple Operations

Uploading an object using simple upload

API description

This API is used to upload an object to a specified bucket. This operation requires the requester to have WRITE permission for the bucket and can upload a file of up to 5 GB in size. To upload larger objects, please use Multipart Upload or the advanced upload API.

Note：

1. The Key (file name) cannot end with /; otherwise, it will be identified as a folder.
2. Each root account (APPID) can have up to 1,000 bucket ACLs and an unlimited number of object ACLs. If you do not need ACL control over an object, please leave it to the default option of inheriting bucket permissions.

Sample code

Objective-C

QCloudPutObjectRequest* put = [QCloudPutObjectRequest new];

// Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
put.bucket = @"examplebucket-1250000000";

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
put.object = @"exampleobject";

// Content of the object to be uploaded. You can pass in variables in `NSData*` or `NSURL*` format
put.body =  [@"testFileContent" dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

[put setFinishBlock:^(id outputObject, NSError *error) {
    // `outputObject` contains all the HTTP response headers
    NSDictionary* info = (NSDictionary *) outputObject;
}];

[[QCloudCOSXMLService defaultCOSXML] PutObject:put];

Note：

• For the complete sample, go to GitHub.
• You can generate a download URL for the uploaded file using the same key. For detailed directions, see Generating a Pre-Signed Link. Please note that for private-read files, the download URL is only valid for a limited period of time.

Swift

let putObject = QCloudPutObjectRequest<AnyObject>.init();

// Bucket name in the format: `BucketName-APPID`
putObject.bucket = "examplebucket-1250000000";
// Content of the object to be uploaded. You can pass in variables in `NSData*` or `NSURL*` format
let dataBody:NSData? = "wrwrwrwrwrw".data(using: .utf8) as NSData?;
putObject.body =  dataBody!;

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
putObject.object = "exampleobject";
putObject.finishBlock = {(result,error) in
    if let result = result {
        // “result” contains response headers
    } else {
        print(error!);
    }
}
QCloudCOSXMLService.defaultCOSXML().putObject(putObject);

Note：

• For the complete sample, go to GitHub.
• You can generate a download URL for the uploaded file using the same key. For detailed directions, see Generating a Pre-Signed Link. Please note that for private-read files, the download URL is only valid for a limited period of time.

Copying an object (modifying object attributes)

This API is used to copy a file to a destination path.

Sample 1. Copying an object while retaining its attributes

Objective-C

// Object key, i.e. the full path of a COS object. If the object is in a directory, the path should be "dir1/object1"
request.object = @"exampleobject";

// Indicate whether to copy metadata. Enumerated values: Copy (default), Replaced
// If this field is specified as `Copy`, the user-defined metadata in the header will be ignored and the object will be copied directly
// If it is specified as `Replaced`, the metadata will be modified based on the header information. If the destination path is the same as the source path (i.e., when you want to modify the metadata), it must be specified as `Replaced`
request.metadataDirective = @"Copy";

// Define the ACL attribute of the object. Valid values: private, public-read, default.
// Default value: default (i.e., the object will inherit the bucket's permissions).
// Note: currently, you can configure up to 1,000 bucket ACLs. If you do not need ACL control over an object, specify `default` for this parameter,
// or simply leave it blank, and the object will inherit the permissions of the bucket by default.
request.accessControlList = @"default";

Multipart Operations

The multipart operation process is outlined below.

How to perform a multipart upload/replication

1. Initialize the multipart upload with Initiate Multipart Upload and get the UploadId.
2. Use the UploadId to upload parts with Upload Part or copy parts with Upload Part Copy
3. Complete the multipart upload with Complete Multipart Upload.

How to resume a multipart upload/replication

1. If you did not record the UploadId of a multipart upload, you can query the multipart upload with List Multipart Uploads to get it.
2. Use the UploadId to list the uploaded parts with List Parts.
3. Use the UploadId to upload the remaining parts with Upload Part or copy the remaining parts with Upload Part Copy.
4. Complete the multipart upload with Complete Multipart Upload.

How to abort a multipart upload/replication

1. If you did not record the UploadId of a multipart upload, you can query the multipart upload with List Multipart Uploads to get it.
2. Abort the multipart upload and delete the uploaded parts with Abort Multipart Upload.
