@push.rocks/smartbucket

simple cloud independent object storage

Install

To install @push.rocks/smartbucket, you need to have Node.js and npm (Node Package Manager) installed on your system. If you have them installed, you can add @push.rocks/smartbucket to your project by running the following command in your project's root directory:

npm install @push.rocks/smartbucket --save

This command will download and install @push.rocks/smartbucket along with its required dependencies into your project's node_modules directory and save it as a dependency in your project's package.json file.

Usage

@push.rocks/smartbucket is a module designed to provide simple cloud-independent object storage functionality. It wraps various cloud storage providers such as AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, and others, offering a unified API to manage storage buckets and objects within those buckets.

To use @push.rocks/smartbucket in your project, you'll need to follow these general steps:

Setting Up

First, ensure you are using ECMAScript modules (ESM) and TypeScript in your project for best compatibility.

Here's how to import and initialize smartbucket in a TypeScript file:

import {
  SmartBucket,
  Bucket,
  Directory,
  File
} from '@push.rocks/smartbucket';

const mySmartBucket = new SmartBucket({
  accessKey: "yourAccessKey",
  accessSecret: "yourSecretKey",
  endpoint: "yourEndpointURL",
});

Make sure to replace "yourAccessKey", "yourSecretKey", and "yourEndpointURL" with your actual credentials and endpoint URL.

Creating a New Bucket

To create a new bucket:

async function createBucket(bucketName: string) {
  try {
    const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.createBucket(bucketName);
    console.log(`Bucket ${bucketName} created successfully.`);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error creating bucket:", error);
  }
}

// Use the function
createBucket("exampleBucket");

Important: Bucket names must be unique across the storage service.

Listing Buckets

To list all buckets:

// Currently, SmartBucket does not include a direct method to list all buckets,
// but you can access the underlying client provided by the cloud storage SDK
// to perform such operations, depending on the SDK's capabilities.

Uploading Objects to a Bucket

To upload an object to a bucket:

async function uploadFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string, fileContent: Buffer | string) {
  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
  if (myBucket) {
    await myBucket.fastStore(filePath, fileContent);
    console.log(`File uploaded to ${bucketName} at ${filePath}`);
  }
}

// Use the function
uploadFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt", "Hello, world!");

Downloading Objects from a Bucket

To download an object:

async function downloadFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
  if (myBucket) {
    const fileContent: Buffer = await myBucket.fastGet(filePath);
    console.log("Downloaded file content:", fileContent.toString());
  }
}

// Use the function
downloadFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");

Deleting Objects

To delete an object from a bucket:

async function deleteFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
  if (myBucket) {
    await myBucket.fastRemove(filePath);
    console.log(`File at ${filePath} deleted from ${bucketName}.`);
  }
}

// Use the function
deleteFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");

Working with Directories

@push.rocks/smartbucket abstracts directories within buckets for easier object management. You can create, list, and delete directories using the Directory class.

Additional Features

• Bucket Policies: Manage bucket policies to control access permissions.
• Object Metadata: Retrieve and modify object metadata.
• Cloud-Agnostic: Designed to work with multiple cloud providers, allowing for easier migration or multi-cloud strategies.

Remember, each cloud provider has specific features and limitations. @push.rocks/smartbucket aims to abstract common functionalities, but always refer to the specific cloud provider's documentation for advanced features or limitations.

Note: This document focuses on basic operations to get you started with @push.rocks/smartbucket. For advanced usage, including streaming data, managing bucket policies, and handling large file uploads, refer to the detailed API documentation and examples.
