Object Storage Service:Resumable upload (C SDK)

Background information

During an upload, progress is recorded in a checkpoint file. If a part fails to upload, the upload process resumes from the point recorded in the checkpoint file. The checkpoint file is deleted after the upload is complete.

You can implement resumable uploads using oss_resumable_clt_params_t. The common parameters for this method are described in the following table.

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 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 Initialization.

• To use resumable upload, you must have the oss:PutObject permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.

Sample code

The following code shows how to perform a resumable upload:

#include "oss_api.h"
#include "aos_http_io.h"
/* Set yourEndpoint to the Endpoint of the bucket's region. For example, for the China (Hangzhou) region, set the Endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com. */
const char *endpoint = "yourEndpoint";

/* Specify the bucket name, such as examplebucket. */
const char *bucket_name = "examplebucket";
/* Specify the full path of the object. The full path cannot contain the bucket name. Example: exampledir/exampleobject.txt. */
const char *object_name = "exampledir/exampleobject.txt";
/* Specify the full path of the local file. */
const char *local_filename = "yourLocalFilename";
/* Set yourRegion to the Region of the bucket. For example, for the China (Hangzhou) region, set the Region to cn-hangzhou. */
const char *region = "yourRegion";
void init_options(oss_request_options_t *options)
{
    options->config = oss_config_create(options->pool);
    /* Initialize the aos_string_t type with a char* string. */
    aos_str_set(&options->config->endpoint, endpoint);
    /* Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run this code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are set. */    
    aos_str_set(&options->config->access_key_id, getenv("OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"));
    aos_str_set(&options->config->access_key_secret, getenv("OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET"));
    // You must also configure the following two parameters.
    aos_str_set(&options->config->region, region);
    options->config->signature_version = 4;
    /* Specifies whether a CNAME is used. A value of 0 indicates that a CNAME is not used. */
    options->config->is_cname = 0;
    /* Set network parameters, such as the timeout period. */
    options->ctl = aos_http_controller_create(options->pool, 0);
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    /* At the program entry point, call the aos_http_io_initialize method to initialize global resources such as the network and memory. */
    if (aos_http_io_initialize(NULL, 0) != AOSE_OK) {
        exit(1);
    }
    /* A memory pool for memory management. It is equivalent to apr_pool_t. The implementation is in the apr library. */
    aos_pool_t *pool;
    /* Create a new memory pool. The second parameter is NULL, which indicates that the new pool does not inherit from another memory pool. */
    aos_pool_create(&pool, NULL);
    /* Create and initialize options. This parameter includes global configurations such as endpoint, access_key_id, access_key_secret, is_cname, and curl. */
    oss_request_options_t *oss_client_options;
    /* Allocate memory for options in the memory pool. */
    oss_client_options = oss_request_options_create(pool);
    /* Initialize the client options oss_client_options. */
    init_options(oss_client_options);
    /* Initialize parameters. */
    aos_string_t bucket;
    aos_string_t object;
    aos_string_t file;
    aos_list_t resp_body;
    aos_table_t *headers = NULL;
    aos_table_t *resp_headers = NULL; 
    aos_status_t *resp_status = NULL; 
    oss_resumable_clt_params_t *clt_params;
    aos_str_set(&bucket, bucket_name);
    aos_str_set(&object, object_name);
    aos_str_set(&file, local_filename);
    aos_list_init(&resp_body);
    /* Perform a resumable upload. */
    clt_params = oss_create_resumable_clt_params_content(pool, 1024 * 100, 3, AOS_TRUE, NULL);
    resp_status = oss_resumable_upload_file(oss_client_options, &bucket, &object, &file, headers, NULL, clt_params, NULL, &resp_headers, &resp_body);
    if (aos_status_is_ok(resp_status)) {
        printf("resumable upload succeeded\n");
    } else {
        printf("resumable upload failed\n");
    }
    /* Release the memory pool. This releases the memory allocated for resources during the request. */
    aos_pool_destroy(pool);
    /* Release the previously allocated global resources. */
    aos_http_io_deinitialize();
    return 0;
}
