Object Storage Service:Pay-by-requester

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 pay-by-requester, you must have the oss:PutBucketRequestPayment permission. To query the pay-by-requester configurations, you must have the oss:GetBucketRequestPayment permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.

Enable pay-by-requester

The following code provides an example on how to enable pay-by-requester for a bucket:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider
from oss2.models import PAYER_BUCKETOWNER, PAYER_REQUESTER

# 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, "yourBucketName", region=region)

# Enable pay-by-requester for the bucket. The default request payment mode is PAYER_BUCKETOWNER. 
result = bucket.put_bucket_request_payment(PAYER_REQUESTER)

print("http respon status: ", result.status)

Query the pay-by-requester configurations of a bucket

The following code provides an example on how to query the pay-by-requester 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, "yourBucketName", region=region)

# Query the pay-by-requester configurations of the bucket. 
result = bucket.get_bucket_request_payment()
print('payer:', result.payer)

Specify that third parties are charged for access to objects

If you specify that third parties are charged for access to objects in a bucket, requesters must include the x-oss-request-payer:requester header in the HTTP requests to perform operations on your objects. If this header is not included, an error is returned.

The following code provides an example on how to specify that third parties are charged when they access objects by calling the PutObject, GetObject, and DeleteObject operations. You can use the method to specify that third parties are charged when they perform read and write operations on objects by calling other API operations in the similar way.

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider
from oss2.headers import OSS_REQUEST_PAYER

# 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, "yourBucketName", region=region)

# Specify the full path of the object. Do not include the bucket name in the full path. Example: exampledir/exampleobject.txt. 
object_name = 'exampledir/exampleobject.txt'
headers = dict()
headers[OSS_REQUEST_PAYER] = "requester"

# Specify the x-oss-request-payer header in the request to upload the object. 
result = bucket.put_object(object_name, 'test-content', headers=headers)

# Specify the x-oss-request-payer header in the request to download the object. 
result = bucket.get_object(object_name, headers=headers)

# Specify the x-oss-request-payer header in the request to delete the object. 
result = bucket.delete_object(object_name, headers=headers);
