Methods

batch()

public abstract StorageBatch batch()

Creates a new empty batch for grouping multiple service calls in one underlying RPC call.

Example of using a batch request to delete, update and get a blob.


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName1 = "my-blob-name1";
 String blobName2 = "my-blob-name2";
 StorageBatch batch = storage.batch();
 BlobId firstBlob = BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName1);
 BlobId secondBlob = BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName2);
 batch.delete(firstBlob).notify(new BatchResult.Callback<Boolean, StorageException>() {
   public void success(Boolean result) {
     // deleted successfully
   }

   public void error(StorageException exception) {
     // delete failed
   }
 });
 batch.update(BlobInfo.newBuilder(secondBlob).setContentType("text/plain").build());
 StorageBatchResult<Blob> result = batch.get(secondBlob);
 batch.submit();
 Blob blob = result.get(); // returns get result or throws StorageException

Returns
Type	Description
`StorageBatch`

close()

public default void close()

Exceptions
Type	Description
`Exception`	thrown if interrupted while awaiting termination of underlying resources

compose(Storage.ComposeRequest composeRequest)

public abstract Blob compose(Storage.ComposeRequest composeRequest)

Sends a compose request.

Accepts an optional userProject BlobTargetOption option which defines the project id to assign operational costs.

Example of composing two blobs.


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 String sourceBlob1 = "source_blob_1";
 String sourceBlob2 = "source_blob_2";
 BlobId blobId = BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName);
 BlobInfo blobInfo = BlobInfo.newBuilder(blobId).setContentType("text/plain").build();
 ComposeRequest request = ComposeRequest.newBuilder()
     .setTarget(blobInfo)
     .addSource(sourceBlob1)
     .addSource(sourceBlob2)
     .build();
 Blob blob = storage.compose(request);

Parameter
Name	Description
`composeRequest`	`Storage.ComposeRequest`

Returns
Type	Description
`Blob`	the composed blob

copy(Storage.CopyRequest copyRequest)

public abstract CopyWriter copy(Storage.CopyRequest copyRequest)

Sends a copy request. This method copies both blob's data and information. To override source blob's information supply a BlobInfo to the CopyRequest using either Storage.CopyRequest.Builder#setTarget(BlobInfo, Storage.BlobTargetOption...) or Storage.CopyRequest.Builder#setTarget(BlobInfo, Iterable).

This method returns a CopyWriter object for the provided CopyRequest. If source and destination objects share the same location and storage class the source blob is copied with one request and CopyWriter#getResult() immediately returns, regardless of the CopyRequest#megabytesCopiedPerChunk parameter. If source and destination have different location or storage class CopyWriter#getResult() might issue multiple RPC calls depending on blob's size.

Example of copying a blob.


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 String copyBlobName = "copy_blob_name";
 CopyRequest request = CopyRequest.newBuilder()
     .setSource(BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName))
     .setTarget(BlobId.of(bucketName, copyBlobName))
     .build();
 Blob blob = storage.copy(request).getResult();

Example of copying a blob in chunks.


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 String copyBlobName = "copy_blob_name";
 CopyRequest request = CopyRequest.newBuilder()
     .setSource(BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName))
     .setTarget(BlobId.of(bucketName, copyBlobName))
     .build();
 CopyWriter copyWriter = storage.copy(request);
 while (!copyWriter.isDone()) {
   copyWriter.copyChunk();
 }
 Blob blob = copyWriter.getResult();

Example of rotating the encryption key of a blob.


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 String oldEncryptionKey = "old_encryption_key";
 String newEncryptionKey = "new_encryption_key";
 BlobId blobId = BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName);
 CopyRequest request = CopyRequest.newBuilder()
     .setSource(blobId)
     .setSourceOptions(BlobSourceOption.decryptionKey(oldEncryptionKey))
     .setTarget(blobId, BlobTargetOption.encryptionKey(newEncryptionKey))
     .build();
 Blob blob = storage.copy(request).getResult();

create(BlobInfo blobInfo, byte[] content, Storage.BlobTargetOption[] options)

public abstract Blob create(BlobInfo blobInfo, byte[] content, Storage.BlobTargetOption[] options)

Creates a new blob. Direct upload is used to upload content. For large content, #writer is recommended as it uses resumable upload. MD5 and CRC32C hashes of content are computed and used for validating transferred data. Accepts an optional userProject BlobGetOption option which defines the project id to assign operational costs. The content type is detected from the blob name if not explicitly set. Note that all non-editable metadata, such as generation or metageneration, will be ignored even if it's present in the provided BlobInfo object.

Example of creating a blob from a byte array:


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 BlobId blobId = BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName);
 BlobInfo blobInfo = BlobInfo.newBuilder(blobId).setContentType("text/plain").build();
 Blob blob = storage.create(blobInfo, "Hello, World!".getBytes(UTF_8));

create(BlobInfo blobInfo, byte[] content, int offset, int length, Storage.BlobTargetOption[] options)

public abstract Blob create(BlobInfo blobInfo, byte[] content, int offset, int length, Storage.BlobTargetOption[] options)

Creates a new blob with the sub array of the given byte array. Direct upload is used to upload content. For large content, #writer is recommended as it uses resumable upload. MD5 and CRC32C hashes of content are computed and used for validating transferred data. Accepts a userProject BlobGetOption option, which defines the project id to assign operational costs. Note that all non-editable metadata, such as generation or metageneration, will be ignored even if it's present in the provided BlobInfo object.

Example of creating a blob from a byte array:


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 BlobId blobId = BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName);
 BlobInfo blobInfo = BlobInfo.newBuilder(blobId).setContentType("text/plain").build();
 Blob blob = storage.create(blobInfo, "Hello, World!".getBytes(UTF_8), 7, 5);

create(BlobInfo blobInfo, Storage.BlobTargetOption[] options)

public abstract Blob create(BlobInfo blobInfo, Storage.BlobTargetOption[] options)

Creates a new blob with no content. Note that all non-editable metadata, such as generation or metageneration, will be ignored even if it's present in the provided BlobInfo object.

create(BlobInfo blobInfo, InputStream content, Storage.BlobWriteOption[] options)

public abstract Blob create(BlobInfo blobInfo, InputStream content, Storage.BlobWriteOption[] options)

Creates a new blob. Direct upload is used to upload content. For large content, #writer is recommended as it uses resumable upload. By default any MD5 and CRC32C values in the given blobInfo are ignored unless requested via the BlobWriteOption.md5Match and BlobWriteOption.crc32cMatch options. The given input stream is closed upon success. Note that all non-editable metadata, such as generation or metageneration, will be ignored even if it's present in the provided BlobInfo object.

This method is marked as Deprecated because it cannot safely retry, given that it accepts an InputStream which can only be consumed once.

Example of creating a blob from an input stream.


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 InputStream content = new ByteArrayInputStream("Hello, World!".getBytes(UTF_8));
 BlobId blobId = BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName);

public abstract PostPolicyV4 generateSignedPostPolicyV4(BlobInfo blobInfo, long duration, TimeUnit unit, PostPolicyV4.PostConditionsV4 conditions, Storage.PostPolicyV4Option[] options)

Generates a presigned post policy without any fields. Automatically creates required fields. See full documentation for #generateSignedPostPolicyV4(BlobInfo, long, TimeUnit, PostPolicyV4.PostFieldsV4, PostPolicyV4.PostConditionsV4, PostPolicyV4Option...).

Parameters
Name	Description
`blobInfo`	`BlobInfo`

generateSignedPostPolicyV4(BlobInfo blobInfo, long duration, TimeUnit unit, PostPolicyV4.PostFieldsV4 fields, PostPolicyV4.PostConditionsV4 conditions, Storage.PostPolicyV4Option[] options)

public abstract PostPolicyV4 generateSignedPostPolicyV4(BlobInfo blobInfo, long duration, TimeUnit unit, PostPolicyV4.PostFieldsV4 fields, PostPolicyV4.PostConditionsV4 conditions, Storage.PostPolicyV4Option[] options)

Generates a URL and a map of fields that can be specified in an HTML form to submit a POST request. The returned map includes a signature which must be provided with the request. Generating a presigned POST policy requires a service account signer. If an instance of com.google.auth.ServiceAccountSigner was passed to StorageOptions' builder via setCredentials(Credentials) or the default credentials are being used and the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS is set, generatPresignedPostPolicyV4 will use that credentials to sign the URL. If the credentials passed to StorageOptions do not implement ServiceAccountSigner (this is the case, for instance, for Google Cloud SDK credentials) then signUrl will throw an IllegalStateException unless an implementation of ServiceAccountSigner is passed using the PostPolicyV4Option#signWith(ServiceAccountSigner) option.

Example of generating a presigned post policy which has the condition that only jpeg images can be uploaded, and applies the public read acl to each image uploaded, and making the POST request:


 PostFieldsV4 fields = PostFieldsV4.newBuilder().setAcl("public-read").build();
 PostConditionsV4 conditions = PostConditionsV4.newBuilder().addContentTypeCondition(ConditionV4Type.MATCHES, "image/jpeg").build();

 PostPolicyV4 policy = storage.generateSignedPostPolicyV4(
     BlobInfo.newBuilder("my-bucket", "my-object").build(),
     7, TimeUnit.DAYS, fields, conditions);

 HttpClient client = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
 HttpPost request = new HttpPost(policy.getUrl());
 MultipartEntityBuilder builder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();

 for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : policy.getFields().entrySet()) {
     builder.addTextBody(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
 }
 File file = new File("path/to/your/file/to/upload");
 builder.addBinaryBody("file", new FileInputStream(file), ContentType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM, file.getName());
 request.setEntity(builder.build());
 client.execute(request);

signUrl(BlobInfo blobInfo, long duration, TimeUnit unit, Storage.SignUrlOption[] options)

public abstract URL signUrl(BlobInfo blobInfo, long duration, TimeUnit unit, Storage.SignUrlOption[] options)

Generates a signed URL for a blob. If you have a blob that you want to allow access to for a fixed amount of time, you can use this method to generate a URL that is only valid within a certain time period. This is particularly useful if you don't want publicly accessible blobs, but also don't want to require users to explicitly log in. Signing a URL requires a service account signer. If an instance of com.google.auth.ServiceAccountSigner was passed to StorageOptions' builder via setCredentials(Credentials) or the default credentials are being used and the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS is set or your application is running in App Engine, then signUrl will use that credentials to sign the URL. If the credentials passed to StorageOptions do not implement ServiceAccountSigner (this is the case, for instance, for Google Cloud SDK credentials) then signUrl will throw an IllegalStateException unless an implementation of ServiceAccountSigner is passed using the SignUrlOption#signWith(ServiceAccountSigner) option.

A service account signer is looked for in the following order:

The signer passed with the option SignUrlOption#signWith(ServiceAccountSigner)
The credentials passed to StorageOptions
The default credentials, if no credentials were passed to StorageOptions

Example of creating a signed URL that is valid for 1 week, using the default credentials for signing the URL, the default signing method (V2), and the default URL style (path-style):


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 URL signedUrl = storage.signUrl(
     BlobInfo.newBuilder(bucketName, blobName).build(),
     7, TimeUnit.DAYS);

Example of creating a signed URL passing the SignUrlOption#withV4Signature() option, which enables V4 signing:


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 URL signedUrl = storage.signUrl(
     BlobInfo.newBuilder(bucketName, blobName).build(),
     7, TimeUnit.DAYS,
     Storage.SignUrlOption.withV4Signature());

Example of creating a signed URL passing the SignUrlOption#withVirtualHostedStyle() option, which specifies the bucket name in the hostname of the URI, rather than in the path:


 URL signedUrl = storage.signUrl(
     BlobInfo.newBuilder(bucketName, blobName).build(),
     1, TimeUnit.DAYS,
     Storage.SignUrlOption.withVirtualHostedStyle());

Example of creating a signed URL passing the SignUrlOption#withPathStyle() option, which specifies the bucket name in path portion of the URI, rather than in the hostname:


 URL signedUrl = storage.signUrl(
     BlobInfo.newBuilder(bucketName, blobName).build(),
     1, TimeUnit.DAYS,
     Storage.SignUrlOption.withPathStyle());

Example of creating a signed URL passing the SignUrlOption#signWith(ServiceAccountSigner) option, that will be used for signing the URL:


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 String kfPath = "/path/to/keyfile.json";
 URL signedUrl = storage.signUrl(
     BlobInfo.newBuilder(bucketName, blobName).build(),
     7, TimeUnit.DAYS,
     SignUrlOption.signWith(ServiceAccountCredentials.fromStream(new FileInputStream(kfPath))));

Note that the ServiceAccountSigner may require additional configuration to enable URL signing. See the documentation for the implementation for more details.

Example of creating a signed URL for a blob with generation:


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 String blobName = "my-blob-name";
 long generation = 1576656755290328L;

 URL signedUrl = storage.signUrl(
     BlobInfo.newBuilder(bucketName, blobName, generation).build(),
     7, TimeUnit.DAYS,
     SignUrlOption.withQueryParams(ImmutableMap.of("generation", String.valueOf(generation))));

testIamPermissions(String bucket, List<String> permissions, Storage.BucketSourceOption[] options)

public abstract List<Boolean> testIamPermissions(String bucket, List<String> permissions, Storage.BucketSourceOption[] options)

Tests whether the caller holds the permissions on the specified bucket. Returns a list of booleans in the same placement and order in which the permissions were specified.

Example of testing permissions on a bucket.


 String bucketName = "my-unique-bucket";
 List<Boolean> response =
     storage.testIamPermissions(
         bucketName,
         ImmutableList.of("storage.buckets.get", "storage.buckets.getIamPolicy"));
 for (boolean hasPermission : response) {
   // Do something with permission test response
 }

Parameters
Name	Description
`bucket`	`String` name of the bucket where the testIamPermissions operation takes place
`permissions`	`List<String>` list of permissions to test on the bucket
`options`	`BucketSourceOption[]` extra parameters to apply to this operation

Returns
Type	Description
`List<Boolean>`

update(BlobInfo blobInfo)

public abstract Blob update(BlobInfo blobInfo)

Updates the properties of the blob. This method issues an RPC request to merge the current blob properties with the properties in the provided blobInfo. Properties not defined in blobInfo will not be updated. To unset a blob property this property in blobInfo should be explicitly set to null.

Bucket or blob's name cannot be changed by this method. If you want to rename the blob or move it to a different bucket use the Blob#copyTo and #delete operations.

Property update alters the blob metadata generation and doesn't alter the blob generation.

Example of how to update blob's user provided metadata and unset the content type:


 Map<String, String> metadataUpdate = new HashMap<>();
 metadataUpdate.put("keyToAdd", "new value");
 metadataUpdate.put("keyToRemove", null);
 BlobInfo blobUpdate = BlobInfo.newBuilder(bucketName, blobName)
     .setMetadata(metadataUpdate)
     .setContentType(null)
     .build();
 Blob blob = storage.update(blobUpdate);

Parameter
Name	Description
`blobInfo`	`BlobInfo` information to update

Returns
Type	Description
`Blob`	the updated blob

update(BlobInfo blobInfo, Storage.BlobTargetOption[] options)

public abstract Blob update(BlobInfo blobInfo, Storage.BlobTargetOption[] options)

Updates the blob properties if the preconditions specified by options are met. The property update works as described in #update(BlobInfo).

options parameter can contain the preconditions for applying the update. E.g. update of the blob properties might be required only if the properties have not been updated externally. StorageException with the code 412 is thrown if preconditions fail.

Example of updating the content type only if the properties are not updated externally:


 BlobId blobId = BlobId.of(bucketName, blobName);
 BlobInfo blobInfo = BlobInfo.newBuilder(blobId).setContentType("text/plain").build();
 Blob blob = storage.create(blobInfo);

 doSomething();

 BlobInfo update = blob.toBuilder().setContentType("multipart/form-data").build();
 Storage.BlobTargetOption option = Storage.BlobTargetOption.metagenerationMatch();
 try {
   storage.update(update, option);
 } catch (StorageException e) {
   if (e.getCode() == 412) {
     // the properties were updated externally
   } else {
     throw e;
   }
 }

Parameters
Name	Description
`blobInfo`	`BlobInfo` information to update
`options`	`BlobTargetOption[]` preconditions to apply the update

Returns
Type	Description
`Blob`	the updated blob
