A bucket is a container used to store objects in Object Storage Service (OSS). This topic describes how to query information about a bucket.
Usage notes
In this topic, the public endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. If you want to access OSS by using other Alibaba Cloud services in the same region as OSS, use an internal endpoint. For more information about the regions and endpoints supported by OSS, see Regions and endpoints.
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 Create an OSSClient instance.
To query information about a bucket, you must have the
oss:GetBucketInfo
permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.
Sample code
The following code provides an example on how to query information about a bucket, including the region and creation date of the bucket:
#include <alibabacloud/oss/OssClient.h>
using namespace AlibabaCloud::OSS;
int main(void)
{
/* Initialize information about the account that is used to access OSS. */
/* 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. */
std::string Endpoint = "yourEndpoint";
/* Specify the name of the bucket. Example: examplebucket. */
std::string BucketName = "examplebucket";
/* Initialize resources such as network resources. */
InitializeSdk();
ClientConfiguration conf;
/* 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. */
auto credentialsProvider = std::make_shared<EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider>();
OssClient client(Endpoint, credentialsProvider, conf);
/* Query the information about the bucket. */
GetBucketInfoRequest request(BucketName);
auto outcome = client.GetBucketInfo(request);
/* View the redundancy type of the bucket. */
if (outcome.isSuccess()) {
std::cout << "GetBucketInfo success, DataRedundancyType:" << static_cast<int>(outcome.result().DataRedundancyType()) << std::endl;
}
else {
/* Handle exceptions. */
std::cout << "GetBucketInfo fail" <<
",code:" << outcome.error().Code() <<
",message:" << outcome.error().Message() <<
",requestId:" << outcome.error().RequestId() << std::endl;
return -1;
}
/* Release resources such as network resources. */
ShutdownSdk();
return 0;
}
