This topic describes how to upload objects from memory or local disks.

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 perform simple upload, you must have the oss:PutObject permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.

Upload an object from memory

The following sample code provides an example on how to upload data from memory as an object named exampleobject.txt in the exampledir directory of a bucket named examplebucket:
#include <alibabacloud/oss/OssClient.h>
using namespace AlibabaCloud::OSS;

int main(void)
{
    /* Initialize the information about the account that is used to access OSS. */
    /* 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. */
    std::string AccessKeyId = "yourAccessKeyId";
    std::string AccessKeySecret = "yourAccessKeySecret";
    /* 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. */
    std::string Endpoint = "yourEndpoint";
    /* Specify the name of the bucket. Example: examplebucket. */
    std::string BucketName = "examplebucket";
    /* Specify the full path of the object. Do not include the bucket name in the full path. Example: exampledir/exampleobject.txt. */
    std::string ObjectName = "exampledir/exampleobject.txt";

    /* Initialize resources, such as network resources. */
    InitializeSdk();

    ClientConfiguration conf;
    OssClient client(Endpoint, AccessKeyId, AccessKeySecret, conf);
    std::shared_ptr<std::iostream> content = std::make_shared<std::stringstream>();
    *content << "Thank you for using Alibaba Cloud Object Storage Service!";
    PutObjectRequest request(BucketName, ObjectName, content);

    /* (Optional) Set the ACL to private and the storage class to Standard for the object. */
    //request.MetaData().addHeader("x-oss-object-acl", "private");
    //request.MetaData().addHeader("x-oss-storage-class", "Standard");

    /* Upload the object. */
    auto outcome = client.PutObject(request);

    if (!outcome.isSuccess()) {
        /* Handle exceptions. */
        std::cout << "PutObject fail" <<
        ",code:" << outcome.error().Code() <<
        ",message:" << outcome.error().Message() <<
        ",requestId:" << outcome.error().RequestId() << std::endl;
        return -1;
    }

    /* Release resources, such as network resources. */
    ShutdownSdk();
    return 0;
}

Upload a local file

The following sample code provides an example on how to upload a file named examplefile.txt from a directory named D:\\localpath on the local disk to the exampledir directory of a bucket named examplebucket. The uploaded file is stored as an object named exampleobject.txt in OSS.

#include <alibabacloud/oss/OssClient.h>
#include <fstream>
using namespace AlibabaCloud::OSS;

int main(void)
{
    /* Initialize the information about the account that is used to access OSS. */
    /* 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. */
    std::string AccessKeyId = "yourAccessKeyId";
    std::string AccessKeySecret = "yourAccessKeySecret";
    /* 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. */
    std::string Endpoint = "yourEndpoint";
    /* Specify the name of the bucket. Example: examplebucket. */
    std::string BucketName = "examplebucket";
    /* Specify the full path of the object. Do not include the bucket name in the full path. Example: exampledir/exampleobject.txt. */
    std::string ObjectName = "exampledir/exampleobject.txt";

    /* Initialize resources, such as network resources. */
    InitializeSdk();

    ClientConfiguration conf;
    OssClient client(Endpoint, AccessKeyId, AccessKeySecret, conf);
    /* Specify the full path of the local file. Example: D:\\localpath\\examplefile.txt. In this example, localpath indicates the local path in which the examplefile.txt file is stored. */
    std::shared_ptr<std::iostream> content = std::make_shared<std::fstream>("D:\\localpath\\examplefile.txt", std::ios::in | std::ios::binary);
    PutObjectRequest request(BucketName, ObjectName, content);

    /* (Optional) Set the ACL to private and the storage class to Standard for the object. */
    //request.MetaData().addHeader("x-oss-object-acl", "private");
    //request.MetaData().addHeader("x-oss-storage-class", "Standard");

    auto outcome = client.PutObject(request);

    if (!outcome.isSuccess()) {
            /* Handle exceptions. */
            std::cout << "PutObject fail" <<
        ",code:" << outcome.error().Code() <<
        ",message:" << outcome.error().Message() <<
        ",requestId:" << outcome.error().RequestId() << std::endl;
        return -1;
    }

    /* Release resources, such as network resources. */
    ShutdownSdk();
        return 0;
}
