Cloud Shell:Use Alibaba Cloud CLI to manage data in OSS

最終更新日:Jun 24, 2024

Alibaba Cloud Shell integrates all features of ossutil, which is a command line tool provided to manage data in Object Storage Service (OSS). You can use the syntax of Alibaba Cloud Command Line Interface (CLI) to manage your data in OSS.

Background information

You can use Alibaba Cloud CLI to manage the following OSS data:

  • Buckets. For example, you can create, query, and delete OSS buckets.

  • Objects. For example, you can upload, download, query, copy, and delete OSS objects.

  • Parts. For example, you can query and delete OSS parts.

Procedure

  1. Start Cloud Shell.

    To start Cloud Shell, use one of the following methods:

    • Start Cloud Shell in the Alibaba Cloud Management Console

      In the Alibaba Cloud Management Console, click the Cloud Shell icon in the top navigation bar.

    • Start Cloud Shell as a standalone application

      Enter https://shell.alibabacloud.com in the address bar of a browser.

      You can open up to five Cloud Shell windows at the same time.

    Note

    When you connect to Cloud Shell for the first time, a virtual machine (VM) is created. The creation process takes at most 30 seconds. If you open multiple Cloud Shell windows, all the windows are connected to the same VM. The number of VMs does not increase when you open a new Cloud Shell window.

  2. Use Alibaba Cloud CLI to manage data in OSS.

    Cloud Shell is authorized to access your OSS service. You can use Alibaba Cloud CLI to manage data in OSS without the need to install other tools or configure other settings.

    Basic syntax:

    aliyun oss [command] [options and parameters]

    Examples:

    • Run the following command to create a bucket:

      aliyun oss mb oss://vmeixme
    • Run the following command to create a directory in a bucket:

      aliyun oss mkdir oss://vmeixme/horse/
    • Run the following command to query all buckets, objects, and parts in OSS:

      aliyun oss ls

    The following table describes all commands of Alibaba Cloud CLI.
