A bucket is a container used to store objects in Object Storage Service (OSS). All objects in OSS are stored in buckets. This topic describes how to create a bucket.
Sample code
The following code provides an example on how to create a bucket named examplebucket:
const OSS = require('ali-oss');
const client = new OSS({
// Specify the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the region to oss-cn-hangzhou.
region: 'yourregion',
// Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that you have configured environment variables OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET.
accessKeyId: process.env.OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
accessKeySecret: process.env.OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET,
authorizationV4: true,
// Specify the name of the bucket.
bucket: 'yourBucketName',
});
// Create the bucket.
async function putBucket() {
try {
const options = {
storageClass: 'Standard', // By default, the storage class of a bucket is Standard. To set the storage class of the bucket to Archive, set storageClass to Archive.
acl: 'private', // By default, the access control list (ACL) of a bucket is private. To set the ACL of the bucket to public read, set acl to public-read.
dataRedundancyType: 'LRS' // By default, the redundancy type of a bucket is locally redundant storage (LRS). To set the redundancy type of the bucket to zone-redundant storage (ZRS), set dataRedundancyType to ZRS.
}
// Specify the name of the bucket.
const result = await client.putBucket('examplebucket', options);
console.log(result);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
}
putBucket();
