### Setting Up
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
First, ensure you are using ECMAScript modules (ESM) and TypeScript in your project for best compatibility. Here's how to import and initialize SmartBucket in a TypeScript file:
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
```typescript
import {
SmartBucket,
Bucket,
Directory,
File
} from '@push.rocks/smartbucket';
const mySmartBucket = new SmartBucket({
accessKey: "yourAccessKey",
accessSecret: "yourSecretKey",
endpoint: "yourEndpointURL",
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
port: 443, // Default is 443, could be customized for specific endpoint
useSsl: true // Defaults to true
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
});
```
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
Make sure to replace `"yourAccessKey"`, `"yourSecretKey"`, and `"yourEndpointURL"` with your actual credentials and endpoint URL. The `port` and `useSsl` options are optional and can be omitted if the defaults are acceptable.
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
### Creating a New Bucket
To create a new bucket:
```typescript
async function createBucket(bucketName: string) {
try {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.createBucket(bucketName);
console.log(`Bucket ${bucketName} created successfully.`);
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error creating bucket:", error);
}
}
// Use the function
createBucket("exampleBucket");
```
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
Bucket names must be unique across the storage service.
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
### Listing Buckets
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
Currently, SmartBucket does not include a direct method to list all buckets, but you can access the underlying client provided by the cloud storage SDK to perform such operations, depending on the SDK's capabilities.

### Working with Files
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
#### Uploading Files
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
To upload an object to a bucket:
```typescript
async function uploadFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string, fileContent: Buffer | string) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
await myBucket.fastPut({ path: filePath, contents: fileContent });
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
console.log(`File uploaded to ${bucketName} at ${filePath}`);
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
}
}
// Use the function
uploadFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt", "Hello, world!");
```
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
#### Downloading Files
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
To download an object:
```typescript
async function downloadFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
const fileContent: Buffer = await myBucket.fastGet({ path: filePath });
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
console.log("Downloaded file content:", fileContent.toString());
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
}
}
// Use the function
downloadFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");
```
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
#### Deleting Files
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
To delete an object from a bucket:
```typescript
async function deleteFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
await myBucket.fastRemove({ path: filePath });
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
console.log(`File at ${filePath} deleted from ${bucketName}.`);
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
}
}
// Use the function
deleteFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");
```
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
#### Streaming Files
SmartBucket allows you to work with file streams, which can be useful for handling large files.
To read a file as a stream:
```typescript
import { ReplaySubject } from '@push.rocks/smartrx';
async function readFileStream(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
const fileStream: ReplaySubject<Buffer> = await myBucket.fastGetStream({ path: filePath });
fileStream.subscribe({
next(chunk: Buffer) {
console.log("Chunk received:", chunk.toString());
},
complete() {
console.log("File read completed.");
},
error(err) {
console.error("Error reading file stream:", err);
}
});
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
}
}
// Use the function
readFileStream("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");
```
To write a file as a stream:
```typescript
import { Readable } from 'stream';
async function writeFileStream(bucketName: string, filePath: string, readableStream: Readable) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
await myBucket.fastPutStream({ path: filePath, dataStream: readableStream });
console.log(`File streamed to ${bucketName} at ${filePath}`);
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
}
}
// Create a readable stream from a string
const readable = new Readable();
readable.push('Hello world streamed as a file!');
readable.push(null); // Indicates end of the stream
// Use the function
writeFileStream("exampleBucket", "path/to/streamedObject.txt", readable);
```
2024-04-14 15:22:27 +00:00
### Working with Directories
`@push.rocks/smartbucket` abstracts directories within buckets for easier object management. You can create, list, and delete directories using the `Directory` class.
2024-05-17 17:24:52 +00:00
```typescript
async function listDirectoryContents(bucketName: string, directoryPath: string) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
const baseDirectory: Directory = await myBucket.getBaseDirectory();
const targetDirectory: Directory = await baseDirectory.getSubDirectoryByName(directoryPath);
console.log('Listing directories:');
const directories = await targetDirectory.listDirectories();
directories.forEach(dir => {
console.log(`- ${dir.name}`);
});
console.log('Listing files:');
const files = await targetDirectory.listFiles();
files.forEach(file => {
console.log(`- ${file.name}`);
});
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
}
}
// Use the function
listDirectoryContents("exampleBucket", "some/directory/path");
```
To create a file within a directory:
```typescript
async function createFileInDirectory(bucketName: string, directoryPath: string, fileName: string, fileContent: string) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
const baseDirectory: Directory = await myBucket.getBaseDirectory();
const targetDirectory: Directory = await baseDirectory.getSubDirectoryByName(directoryPath);
await targetDirectory.createEmptyFile(fileName); // Create an empty file
const file = new File({ directoryRefArg: targetDirectory, fileName });
await file.updateWithContents({ contents: fileContent });
console.log(`File created: ${fileName}`);
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
}
}
// Use the function
createFileInDirectory("exampleBucket", "some/directory", "newfile.txt", "Hello, world!");
```
### Advanced Features
#### Bucket Policies
Manage bucket policies to control access permissions. This feature is dependent on the policies provided by the storage service (e.g., AWS S3, MinIO).
#### Object Metadata
You can retrieve and modify object metadata. Metadata can be useful for storing additional information about an object.
To retrieve metadata:
```typescript
async function getObjectMetadata(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
const metadata = await mySmartBucket.minioClient.statObject(bucketName, filePath);
console.log("Object metadata:", metadata);
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
}
}
// Use the function
getObjectMetadata("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");
```
To update metadata:
```typescript
async function updateObjectMetadata(bucketName: string, filePath: string, newMetadata: { [key: string]: string }) {
const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
if (myBucket) {
await myBucket.copyObject({
objectKey: filePath,
nativeMetadata: newMetadata,
deleteExistingNativeMetadata: false,
});
console.log(`Metadata updated for ${filePath}`);
} else {
console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
}
}
// Use the function
updateObjectMetadata("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt", {
customKey: "customValue"
});
```
