Object Storage Service (OSS) generates access logs to record access to resources stored in OSS buckets. After you enable and configure logging for a bucket, OSS generates access logs every hour based on predefined naming rules and then stores the logs in a specific bucket.
Usage notes
In this topic, the public endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. If you want to access OSS from other Alibaba Cloud services in the same region as OSS, use an internal endpoint. For more information about OSS regions and endpoints, see Regions, endpoints and open ports.
In this topic, access credentials are obtained from environment variables. For more information about how to configure access credentials, see Configure access credentials.
In this topic, an OSSClient instance is created by using an OSS endpoint. If you want to create an OSSClient instance by using custom domain names or Security Token Service (STS), see Initialization.
To enable logging, you must have the
oss:PutBucketLogging
permission. To query logging configurations, you must have theoss:GetBucketLogging
permission. To disable logging, you must have theoss:DeleteBucketLogging
permission. For more information, see Common examples of RAM policies.
Enable logging for a bucket
The following sample code provides an example on how to enable logging for a bucket:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider
from oss2.models import BucketLogging
# Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are configured.
auth = oss2.ProviderAuthV4(EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider())
# Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com.
endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com"
# Specify the ID of the region that maps to the endpoint. Example: cn-hangzhou. This parameter is required if you use the signature algorithm V4.
region = "cn-hangzhou"
# Specify the name of your bucket.
bucket = oss2.Bucket(auth, endpoint, "examplebucket", region=region)
# Specify that the generated log objects are stored in the current bucket.
# Set the directory in which the log objects are stored to log/. If you specify this parameter, the log objects are stored in the specified directory of the bucket. If you do not specify this parameter, the log objects are stored in the root directory of the bucket.
# Enable logging for the bucket.
logging = bucket.put_bucket_logging(BucketLogging(bucket.bucket_name, 'log/'))
if logging.status == 200:
print("Enable access logging")
else:
print("request_id:", logging.request_id)
print("resp : ", logging.resp.response)
Query the logging configurations of a bucket
The following sample code provides an example on how to query the logging configurations of a bucket:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider
# Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are configured.
auth = oss2.ProviderAuthV4(EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider())
# Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com.
endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com"
# Specify the ID of the region that maps to the endpoint. Example: cn-hangzhou. This parameter is required if you use the signature algorithm V4.
region = "cn-hangzhou"
# Specify the name of your bucket.
bucket = oss2.Bucket(auth, endpoint, "examplebucket", region=region)
# View the logging configurations of the bucket.
logging = bucket.get_bucket_logging()
print('TargetBucket={0}, TargetPrefix={1}'.format(logging.target_bucket, logging.target_prefix))
Disable logging for a bucket
The following sample code provides an example on how to disable logging for a bucket:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider
# Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are configured.
auth = oss2.ProviderAuthV4(EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider())
# Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com.
endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com"
# Specify the ID of the region that maps to the endpoint. Example: cn-hangzhou. This parameter is required if you use the signature algorithm V4.
region = "cn-hangzhou"
# Specify the name of your bucket.
bucket = oss2.Bucket(auth, endpoint, "examplebucket", region=region)
# Disable logging for the bucket.
logging = bucket.delete_bucket_logging()
if logging.status == 204:
print("Disable access logging")
else:
print("request_id :", logging.request_id)
print("resp : ", logging.resp.response)
