Obtaining Storage Information of a Bucket

Function

This API returns the storage information of a bucket, including the number of objects and the space occupied by the objects in the bucket.

Note

OBS measures bucket storage statistics in the background and does not update the storage information in real time. So, you are advised not to perform real-time verification on the storage information.

Restrictions

• To obtain the storage information of a bucket, you must be the bucket owner or have the required permission (obs:bucket:GetBucketStorageInfo in IAM or GetBucketStorage in a bucket policy).

Method

obsClient.getBucketStorageInfo(String bucketName)

Request Parameters

Table 1 List of request parameters

Parameter	Type	Mandatory (Yes/No)	Description
bucketName	String	Yes	Explanation: Bucket name. Restrictions: A bucket name must be unique across all accounts and regions. A bucket name: Must be 3 to 63 characters long and start with a digit or letter. Lowercase letters, digits, hyphens (-), and periods (.) are allowed. Cannot be formatted as an IP address. Cannot start or end with a hyphen (-) or period (.). Cannot contain two consecutive periods (..), for example, my..bucket. Cannot contain periods (.) and hyphens (-) adjacent to each other, for example, my-.bucket or my.-bucket. If you repeatedly create buckets of the same name in the same region, no error will be reported and the bucket attributes comply with those set in the first creation request. Default value: None

Responses

Table 2 BucketStorageInfo

Parameter	Type	Description
statusCode	int	Explanation: HTTP status code. Value range: A status code is a group of digits that can be 2xx (indicating successes) or 4xx or 5xx (indicating errors). It indicates the status of a response. Default value: None
responseHeaders	Map<String, Object>	Explanation: Response header list, composed of tuples. In a tuple, the String key indicates the name of the header, and the Object value indicates the value of the header. Default value: None
size	long	Explanation: Size of the space occupied by objects in the bucket. Value range: A non-negative integer, in bytes. Default value: None
objectNum	long	Explanation: Number of objects in the bucket. Default value: None

Code Examples

This example returns the storage information of bucket exampleBucket.

        // Obtain an AK/SK pair on the management console.
        String ak = System.getenv("ACCESS_KEY_ID");
        String sk = System.getenv("SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_ID");
        // (Optional) If you are using a temporary AK/SK pair and a security token to access OBS, you are advised not to use hard coding, which may result in information leakage.
        // Obtain an AK/SK pair and a security token using environment variables or import them in other ways.
        // String securityToken = System.getenv("SECURITY_TOKEN");
        // Enter the endpoint corresponding to the region where the bucket is to be created.
        String endPoint = "https://your-endpoint";
        // Obtain an endpoint using environment variables or import it in other ways.

        // Create an ObsClient instance.
        // Use the permanent AK/SK pair to initialize the client.
        ObsClient obsClient = new ObsClient(ak, sk,endPoint);
        // Use the temporary AK/SK pair and security token to initialize the client.
        // ObsClient obsClient = new ObsClient(ak, sk, securityToken, endPoint);

            System.out.println("GetObjectNumber:" + storageInfo.getObjectNumber());
            System.out.println("GetStorageSize:" + storageInfo.getSize() + " bytes");

            // Request failed. Print the error details.
            System.out.println("Error Message:" + e.getErrorMessage());
            // Request failed. Print the request ID.
            System.out.println("Request ID:" + e.getErrorRequestId());
            System.out.println("Host ID:" + e.getErrorHostId());
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("GetBucketStorageInfo failed");
            // Print other error information.
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
