By default, when you call the HeadObject operation on an Object Storage Service (OSS) object in a versioning-enabled bucket, the metadata of only the current version of the object is returned.
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 Create an OSSClient instance.
To query object metadata, you must have the
oss:GetObject
permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.
Examples
The following sample code provides an example on how to query the metadata of an object.
If the current version of the object is a delete marker, OSS returns 404 Not Found. If you specify a version ID in the request, OSS returns the metadata of the specified version of the object.
<?php
if (is_file(__DIR__ . '/../autoload.php')) {
require_once __DIR__ . '/../autoload.php';
}
if (is_file(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php')) {
require_once __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
}
use OSS\Credentials\EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider;
use OSS\OssClient;
use OSS\CoreOssException;
// Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are configured.
$provider = new EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider();
// Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com.
$endpoint = "yourEndpoint";
// Specify the name of the bucket. Example: examplebucket.
$bucket= "examplebucket";
// Specify the full path of the object. Do not include the bucket name in the full path. Example: exampledir/exampleobject.txt.
$object = "exampledir/exampleobject.txt";
// Specify the version ID of the object.
$versionId = "CAEQMxiBgICAof2D0BYiIDJhMGE3N2M1YTI1NDQzOGY5NTkyNTI3MGYyMzJm****";
$config = array(
"provider" => $provider,
"endpoint" => $endpoint,
);
$ossClient = new OssClient($config);
try {
// Query all metadata of the specified version of the object.
$objectMeta = $ossClient->getObjectMeta($bucket, $object, array(OssClient::OSS_VERSION_ID => $versionId));
print_r($objectMeta);
// Query part of the metadata of the specified version of the object.
$objectMeta = $ossClient->getSimplifiedObjectMeta($bucket, $object, array(OssClient::OSS_VERSION_ID => $versionId));
print_r($objectMeta);
} catch (OssException $e) {
printf(__FUNCTION__ . ": FAILED\n");
printf($e->getMessage() . "\n");
return;
}
print(__FUNCTION__ . ": OK" . "\n");
