imported some docs from the old user-guide
These files are imported (and very lightly edited) from the old ocata user-guide. It has a few other swift-related docs that seemed more duplacative of what we already have, but these seem to fill existing gaps in our docs. Change-Id: Ib00bf6992327f15f271120dc5dbc86a4a235baec

Bulk delete
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|
||||
To discover whether your Object Storage system supports this feature,
|
||||
see :ref:`discoverability`. Alternatively, check with your service provider.
|
||||
|
||||
With bulk delete, you can delete up to 10,000 objects or containers
|
||||
(configurable) in one request.
|
||||
|
||||
Bulk delete request
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
To perform a bulk delete operation, add the ``bulk-delete`` query
|
||||
parameter to the path of a ``POST`` or ``DELETE`` operation.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
The ``DELETE`` operation is supported for backwards compatibility.
|
||||
|
||||
The path is the account, such as ``/v1/12345678912345``, that contains
|
||||
the objects and containers.
|
||||
|
||||
In the request body of the ``POST`` or ``DELETE`` operation, list the
|
||||
objects or containers to be deleted. Separate each name with a newline
|
||||
character. You can include a maximum of 10,000 items (configurable) in
|
||||
the list.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, you must:
|
||||
|
||||
- UTF-8-encode and then URL-encode the names.
|
||||
|
||||
- To indicate an object, specify the container and object name as:
|
||||
``CONTAINER_NAME``/``OBJECT_NAME``.
|
||||
|
||||
- To indicate a container, specify the container name as:
|
||||
``CONTAINER_NAME``. Make sure that the container is empty. If it
|
||||
contains objects, Object Storage cannot delete the container.
|
||||
|
||||
- Set the ``Content-Type`` request header to ``text/plain``.
|
||||
|
||||
Bulk delete response
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
When Object Storage processes the request, it performs multiple
|
||||
sub-operations. Even if all sub-operations fail, the operation returns a
|
||||
200 status. The bulk operation returns a response body that contains
|
||||
details that indicate which sub-operations have succeeded and failed.
|
||||
Some sub-operations might succeed while others fail. Examine the
|
||||
response body to determine the results of each delete sub-operation.
|
||||
|
||||
You can set the ``Accept`` request header to one of the following values
|
||||
to define the response format:
|
||||
|
||||
``text/plain``
|
||||
Formats response as plain text. If you omit the
|
||||
``Accept`` header, ``text/plain`` is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
``application/json``
|
||||
Formats response as JSON.
|
||||
|
||||
``application/xml`` or ``text/xml``
|
||||
Formats response as XML.
|
||||
|
||||
The response body contains the following information:
|
||||
|
||||
- The number of files actually deleted.
|
||||
|
||||
- The number of not found objects.
|
||||
|
||||
- Errors. A list of object names and associated error statuses for the
|
||||
objects that failed to delete. The format depends on the value that
|
||||
you set in the ``Accept`` header.
|
||||
|
||||
The following bulk delete response is in ``application/xml`` format. In
|
||||
this example, the ``mycontainer`` container is not empty, so it cannot
|
||||
be deleted.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: xml
|
||||
|
||||
<delete>
|
||||
<number_deleted>2</number_deleted>
|
||||
<number_not_found>4</number_not_found>
|
||||
<errors>
|
||||
<object>
|
||||
<name>/v1/12345678912345/mycontainer</name>
|
||||
<status>409 Conflict</status>
|
||||
</object>
|
||||
</errors>
|
||||
</delete>

Object expiration
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
You can schedule Object Storage (swift) objects to expire by setting the
|
||||
``X-Delete-At`` or ``X-Delete-After`` header. Once the object is deleted,
|
||||
swift will no longer serve the object and it will be deleted from the cluster
|
||||
shortly thereafter.
|
||||
|
||||
* Set an object to expire at an absolute time (in Unix time). You
|
||||
can get the current Unix time by running ``date +'%s'``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift post CONTAINER OBJECT_FILENAME -H "X-Delete-At:UNIX_TIME"
|
||||
|
||||
Verify the ``X-Delete-At`` header has posted to the object:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift stat CONTAINER OBJECT_FILENAME
|
||||
|
||||
* Set an object to expire after a relative amount of time (in seconds):
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift post CONTAINER OBJECT_FILENAME -H "X-Delete-After:SECONDS"
|
||||
|
||||
The ``X-Delete-After`` header will be converted to ``X-Delete-At``.
|
||||
Verify the ``X-Delete-At`` header has posted to the object:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift stat CONTAINER OBJECT_FILENAME
|
||||
|
||||
If you no longer want to expire the object, you can remove the
|
||||
``X-Delete-At`` header:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift post CONTAINER OBJECT_FILENAME -H "X-Remove-Delete-At:"
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
In order for object expiration to work properly, the
|
||||
``swift-object-expirer`` daemon will need access to all backend
|
||||
servers in the cluster. The daemon does not need access to the
|
||||
proxy-server or public network.

=================================================
|

Page through large lists of containers or objects
|
||||
=================================================
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a large number of containers or objects, you can use the
|
||||
``marker``, ``limit``, and ``end_marker`` parameters to control
|
||||
how many items are returned in a list and where the list starts or ends.
|
||||
|
||||
* marker
|
||||
When you request a list of containers or objects, Object Storage
|
||||
returns a maximum of 10,000 names for each request. To get
|
||||
subsequent names, you must make another request with the
|
||||
``marker`` parameter. Set the ``marker`` parameter to the name of
|
||||
the last item returned in the previous list. You must URL-encode the
|
||||
``marker`` value before you send the HTTP request. Object Storage
|
||||
returns a maximum of 10,000 names starting after the last item
|
||||
returned.
|
||||
|
||||
* limit
|
||||
To return fewer than 10,000 names, use the ``limit`` parameter. If
|
||||
the number of names returned equals the specified ``limit`` (or
|
||||
10,000 if you omit the ``limit`` parameter), you can assume there
|
||||
are more names to list. If the number of names in the list is
|
||||
exactly divisible by the ``limit`` value, the last request has no
|
||||
content.
|
||||
|
||||
* end_marker
|
||||
Limits the result set to names that are less than the
|
||||
``end_marker`` parameter value. You must URL-encode the
|
||||
``end_marker`` value before you send the HTTP request.
|
||||
|
||||
To page through a large list of containers
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Assume the following list of container names:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
apples
|
||||
bananas
|
||||
kiwis
|
||||
oranges
|
||||
pears
|
||||
|
||||
#. Use a ``limit`` of two:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
# curl -i $publicURL/?limit=2 -X GET -H "X-Auth-Token: $token"
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
apples
|
||||
bananas
|
||||
|
||||
Because two container names are returned, there are more names to
|
||||
list.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Make another request with a ``marker`` parameter set to the name of
|
||||
the last item returned:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
# curl -i $publicURL/?limit=2&marker=bananas -X GET -H \
|
||||
“X-Auth-Token: $token"
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
kiwis
|
||||
oranges
|
||||
|
||||
Again, two items are returned, and there might be more.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Make another request with a ``marker`` of the last item returned:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
# curl -i $publicURL/?limit=2&marker=oranges -X GET -H \”
|
||||
X-Auth-Token: $token"
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
pears
|
||||
|
||||
You receive a one-item response, which is fewer than the ``limit``
|
||||
number of names. This indicates that this is the end of the list.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Use the ``end_marker`` parameter to limit the result set to object
|
||||
names that are less than the ``end_marker`` parameter value:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
# curl -i $publicURL/?end_marker=oranges -X GET -H \”
|
||||
X-Auth-Token: $token"
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
apples
|
||||
bananas
|
||||
kiwis
|
||||
|
||||
You receive a result set of all container names before the
|
||||
``end-marker`` value.

===========================================
|
||||
Pseudo-hierarchical folders and directories
|
||||
===========================================
|
||||
|
||||
Although you cannot nest directories in OpenStack Object Storage, you
|
||||
can simulate a hierarchical structure within a single container by
|
||||
adding forward slash characters (``/``) in the object name. To navigate
|
||||
the pseudo-directory structure, you can use the ``delimiter`` query
|
||||
parameter. This example shows you how to use pseudo-hierarchical folders
|
||||
and directories.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
In this example, the objects reside in a container called ``backups``.
|
||||
Within that container, the objects are organized in a pseudo-directory
|
||||
called ``photos``. The container name is not displayed in the example,
|
||||
but it is a part of the object URLs. For instance, the URL of the
|
||||
picture ``me.jpg`` is
|
||||
``https://swift.example.com/v1/CF_xer7_343/backups/photos/me.jpg``.
|
||||
|
||||
List pseudo-hierarchical folders request: HTTP
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
To display a list of all the objects in the storage container, use
|
||||
``GET`` without a ``delimiter`` or ``prefix``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ curl -X GET -i -H "X-Auth-Token: $token" \
|
||||
$publicurl/v1/AccountString/backups
|
||||
|
||||
The system returns status code 2xx (between 200 and 299, inclusive) and
|
||||
the requested list of the objects.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
photos/animals/cats/persian.jpg
|
||||
photos/animals/cats/siamese.jpg
|
||||
photos/animals/dogs/corgi.jpg
|
||||
photos/animals/dogs/poodle.jpg
|
||||
photos/animals/dogs/terrier.jpg
|
||||
photos/me.jpg
|
||||
photos/plants/fern.jpg
|
||||
photos/plants/rose.jpg
|
||||
|
||||
Use the delimiter parameter to limit the displayed results. To use
|
||||
``delimiter`` with pseudo-directories, you must use the parameter slash
|
||||
(``/``).
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ curl -X GET -i -H "X-Auth-Token: $token" \
|
||||
$publicurl/v1/AccountString/backups?delimiter=/
|
||||
|
||||
The system returns status code 2xx (between 200 and 299, inclusive) and
|
||||
the requested matching objects. Because you use the slash, only the
|
||||
pseudo-directory ``photos/`` displays. The returned values from a slash
|
||||
``delimiter`` query are not real objects. The value will refer to
|
||||
a real object if it does not end with a slash. The pseudo-directories
|
||||
have no content-type, rather, each pseudo-directory has
|
||||
its own ``subdir`` entry in the response of JSON and XML results.
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: JSON
|
||||
|
||||
[
|
||||
{
|
||||
"subdir": "photos/"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: XML
|
||||
|
||||
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
|
||||
<container name="backups">
|
||||
<subdir name="photos/">
|
||||
<name>photos/</name>
|
||||
</subdir>
|
||||
</container>
|
||||
|
||||
Use the ``prefix`` and ``delimiter`` parameters to view the objects
|
||||
inside a pseudo-directory, including further nested pseudo-directories.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ curl -X GET -i -H "X-Auth-Token: $token" \
|
||||
$publicurl/v1/AccountString/backups?prefix=photos/&delimiter=/
|
||||
|
||||
The system returns status code 2xx (between 200 and 299, inclusive) and
|
||||
the objects and pseudo-directories within the top level
|
||||
pseudo-directory.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
You can create an unlimited number of nested pseudo-directories. To
|
||||
navigate through them, use a longer ``prefix`` parameter coupled with
|
||||
the ``delimiter`` parameter. In this sample output, there is a
|
||||
pseudo-directory called ``dogs`` within the pseudo-directory
|
||||
``animals``. To navigate directly to the files contained within
|
||||
``dogs``, enter the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ curl -X GET -i -H "X-Auth-Token: $token" \
|
||||
$publicurl/v1/AccountString/backups?prefix=photos/animals/dogs/&delimiter=/
|
||||
|
||||
The system returns status code 2xx (between 200 and 299, inclusive) and
|
||||
the objects and pseudo-directories within the nested pseudo-directory.
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
Create static website
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
To discover whether your Object Storage system supports this feature,
|
||||
see :ref:`discoverability`. Alternatively, check with your service
|
||||
provider.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use your Object Storage account to create a static website. This
|
||||
static website is created with Static Web middleware and serves container
|
||||
data with a specified index file, error file resolution, and optional
|
||||
file listings. This mode is normally active only for anonymous requests,
|
||||
which provide no authentication token. To use it with authenticated
|
||||
requests, set the header ``X-Web-Mode`` to ``TRUE`` on the request.
|
||||
|
||||
The Static Web filter must be added to the pipeline in your
|
||||
``/etc/swift/proxy-server.conf`` file below any authentication
|
||||
middleware. You must also add a Static Web middleware configuration
|
||||
section.
|
||||
|
||||
Your publicly readable containers are checked for two headers,
|
||||
``X-Container-Meta-Web-Index`` and ``X-Container-Meta-Web-Error``. The
|
||||
``X-Container-Meta-Web-Error`` header is discussed below, in the
|
||||
section called :ref:`set_error_static_website`.
|
||||
|
||||
Use ``X-Container-Meta-Web-Index`` to determine the index file (or
|
||||
default page served, such as ``index.html``) for your website. When
|
||||
someone initially enters your site, the ``index.html`` file displays
|
||||
automatically. If you create sub-directories for your site by creating
|
||||
pseudo-directories in your container, the index page for each
|
||||
sub-directory is displayed by default. If your pseudo-directory does not
|
||||
have a file with the same name as your index file, visits to the
|
||||
sub-directory return a 404 error.
|
||||
|
||||
You also have the option of displaying a list of files in your
|
||||
pseudo-directory instead of a web page. To do this, set the
|
||||
``X-Container-Meta-Web-Listings`` header to ``TRUE``. You may add styles
|
||||
to your file listing by setting ``X-Container-Meta-Web-Listings-CSS``
|
||||
to a style sheet (for example, ``lists.css``).
|
||||
|
||||
Static Web middleware through Object Storage
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The following sections show how to use Static Web middleware through
|
||||
Object Storage.
|
||||
|
||||
Make container publicly readable
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Make the container publicly readable. Once the container is publicly
|
||||
readable, you can access your objects directly, but you must set the
|
||||
index file to browse the main site URL and its sub-directories.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift post -r '.r:*,.rlistings' container
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Set site index file
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Set the index file. In this case, ``index.html`` is the default file
|
||||
displayed when the site appears.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift post -m 'web-index:index.html' container
|
||||
|
||||
Enable file listing
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Turn on file listing. If you do not set the index file, the URL displays
|
||||
a list of the objects in the container. Instructions on styling the list
|
||||
with a CSS follow.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift post -m 'web-listings: true' container
|
||||
|
||||
Enable CSS for file listing
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Style the file listing using a CSS.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift post -m 'web-listings-css:listings.css' container
|
||||
|
||||
.. _set_error_static_website:
|
||||
|
||||
Set error pages for static website
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
You can create and set custom error pages for visitors to your website;
|
||||
currently, only 401 (Unauthorized) and 404 (Not Found) errors are
|
||||
supported. To do this, set the metadata header,
|
||||
``X-Container-Meta-Web-Error``.
|
||||
|
||||
Error pages are served with the status code pre-pended to the name of
|
||||
the error page you set. For instance, if you set
|
||||
``X-Container-Meta-Web-Error`` to ``error.html``, 401 errors will
|
||||
display the page ``401error.html``. Similarly, 404 errors will display
|
||||
``404error.html``. You must have both of these pages created in your
|
||||
container when you set the ``X-Container-Meta-Web-Error`` metadata, or
|
||||
your site will display generic error pages.
|
||||
|
||||
You only have to set the ``X-Container-Meta-Web-Error`` metadata once
|
||||
for your entire static website.
|
||||
|
||||
Set error pages for static website request
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ swift post -m 'web-error:error.html' container
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Any 2\ ``nn`` response indicates success.
