This topic describes how to use range download to download a specified range of data from an object in an efficient manner.
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 perform range download, you must have the
oss:GetObject
permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.
Sample code
The following sample code is used to download a specific range of data of an object.
package main
import (
"io"
"log"
"strings"
"github.com/aliyun/aliyun-oss-go-sdk/oss"
)
func main() {
// 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.
provider, err := oss.NewEnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider()
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Error: %v", err)
}
// Create an OSSClient instance.
// 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. Specify your actual endpoint.
// 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 cn-hangzhou. Specify the actual region.
clientOptions := []oss.ClientOption{oss.SetCredentialsProvider(&provider)}
clientOptions = append(clientOptions, oss.Region("yourRegion"))
// Specify the version of the signature algorithm.
clientOptions = append(clientOptions, oss.AuthVersion(oss.AuthV4))
client, err := oss.New("yourEndpoint", "", "", clientOptions...)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Error: %v", err)
}
// Specify the name of the bucket.
bucketName := "yourBucketName"
bucket, err := client.Bucket(bucketName)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Error: %v", err)
}
// Upload 1,000 bytes.
strContent := ""
for i := 0; i < 100; i++ {
strContent += "abcdefghij"
}
log.Printf("content len: %d\n", len(strContent))
// Upload a string.
objectName := "yourObjectName"
err = bucket.PutObject(objectName, strings.NewReader(strContent))
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Error: %v", err)
}
// Query the data that is within the range from byte 15 to byte 35, which includes a total of 21 bytes.
// If the specified value range is invalid, the entire object is downloaded. For example, if the specified range includes a negative number or the specified value is greater than the object size, all content of the object is downloaded.
body, err := bucket.GetObject(objectName, oss.Range(15, 35))
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Error: %v", err)
}
defer body.Close()
// Read the data and load it into the memory.
data, err := io.ReadAll(body)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Error: %v", err)
}
log.Printf("data: %s", string(data))
}
