Object Storage Service:Manage lifecycle rules

Usage notes

• In this topic, the public endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. If you want to access OSS by using other Alibaba Cloud services in the same region as OSS, use an internal endpoint For more information about the regions and endpoints supported by OSS, 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 STS, see Create an OSSClient instance.
• To configure lifecycle rules, you must have the oss:PutBucketLifecycle permission. To query lifecycle rules, you must have the oss:GetBucketLifecycle permission. To delete lifecycle rules, you must have the oss:DeleteBucketLifecycle permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.

Background information

Each lifecycle rule contains the following information:

• Rule ID. It uniquely identifies a rule in a bucket.
• Policy. You can use one of the following methods to configure a policy. Only a single method can be configured for each bucket.
  • Match by prefix: You can create multiple rules to configure different prefixes. Each prefix must be unique.
  • Match by bucket: If you select this method, only a single rule can be created.
• Expiration time. You can use one of the following configuration methods to configure the expiration time:
  • Specify a validity period for which to retain objects after they are last modified.
  • Specify a expiration date that objects that are last modified before this date expire.
• Status.

Lifecycle rules also apply to the parts uploaded by using uploadPart. In this case, the last modified time of an object is the time when the multipart upload task is initiated.

Configure lifecycle rules

The following code provides an example on how to configure lifecycle rules:

<?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\OssClient;
use OSS\Core\OssException;
use OSS\Model\LifecycleConfig;
use OSS\Model\LifecycleRule;
use OSS\Model\LifecycleAction;

// The AccessKey pair of an Alibaba Cloud account has permissions on all API operations. Using these credentials to perform operations in OSS is a high-risk operation. We recommend that you use a RAM user to call API operations or perform routine O&M. To create a RAM user, log on to the RAM console. 
$accessKeyId = "yourAccessKeyId";
$accessKeySecret = "yourAccessKeySecret";
// In this example, the endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. Specify your actual endpoint. 
$endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com";
// Specify the name of the bucket. 
$bucket= "yourBucketName";

// Specify the rule ID and the prefix of the object names that match the rule. 
$ruleId0 = "rule0";
$matchPrefix0 = "A0/";
$ruleId1 = "rule1";
$matchPrefix1 = "A1/";

$lifecycleConfig = new LifecycleConfig();
$actions = array();
// Specify that objects expire three days after they are last modified. 
$actions[] = new LifecycleAction(OssClient::OSS_LIFECYCLE_EXPIRATION, OssClient::OSS_LIFECYCLE_TIMING_DAYS, 3);
$lifecycleRule = new LifecycleRule($ruleId0, $matchPrefix0, "Enabled", $actions);
$lifecycleConfig->addRule($lifecycleRule);
$actions = array();
// Specify that objects created before the specified date expire. 
$actions[] = new LifecycleAction(OssClient::OSS_LIFECYCLE_EXPIRATION, OssClient::OSS_LIFECYCLE_TIMING_DATE, '2022-10-12T00:00:00.000Z');
$lifecycleRule = new LifecycleRule($ruleId1, $matchPrefix1, "Enabled", $actions);
$lifecycleConfig->addRule($lifecycleRule);
try {
    $ossClient = new OssClient($accessKeyId, $accessKeySecret, $endpoint);

    $ossClient->putBucketLifecycle($bucket, $lifecycleConfig);
} catch (OssException $e) {
    printf(__FUNCTION__ . ": FAILED\n");
    printf($e->getMessage() . "\n");
    return;
}
print(__FUNCTION__ . ": OK" . "\n");

View lifecycle rules

The following code provides an example on how to query lifecycle rules:

<?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';

$accessKeyId = "yourAccessKeyId";

$endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com";
// Specify the name of the bucket. 
$bucket= "yourBucketName";

$lifecycleConfig = null;
try{
    $ossClient = new OssClient($accessKeyId, $accessKeySecret, $endpoint);

    $lifecycleConfig = $ossClient->getBucketLifecycle($bucket);
} catch(OssException $e) {

    printf($e->getMessage() . "\n");
    return;
}
print(__FUNCTION__ . ": OK" . "\n");
print($lifecycleConfig->serializeToXml() . "\n");

Delete lifecycle rules

The following code provides an example on how to delete lifecycle rules:

<?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\OssClient;
use OSS\Core\OssException;

$accessKeyId = "yourAccessKeyId";

$endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com";
// Specify the name of the bucket. 
$bucket= "yourBucketName";

try{
    $ossClient = new OssClient($accessKeyId, $accessKeySecret, $endpoint);

    $ossClient->deleteBucketLifecycle($bucket);
} catch(OssException $e) {
    printf(__FUNCTION__ . ": FAILED\n");
    printf($e->getMessage() . "\n");
    return;
}
print(__FUNCTION__ . ": OK" . "\n");
