Getting Started

Installation

$ go get gitlab.com/ionburst/ionburst-sdk-go

Configuration

The Ionburst SDK can get its configuration (ionburst_id, ionburst_key, ionburst_uri) from the following three files.

If ionburst_id and ionburst_key are not specified by environment variable, they are obtained from the credentials file.

If ionburst_uri is not specified in the Ionburst constructor, it'll check the credentials file.

Environment Variables

IONBURST_ID=IB******************
IONBURST_KEY=eW91aGF2ZXRvb211Y2h0aW1lb255b3VyaGFuZHMh
IONBURST_URI=https://api.example.ionburst.cloud/

Credentials file

~/.ionburst/credentials on Mac, Linux and BSD, and C:\Users\%USERNAME%\.ionburst\credentials on Windows

[example]
ionburst_id=IB******************
ionburst_key=eW91aGF2ZXRvb211Y2h0aW1lb255b3VyaGFuZHMh
ionburst_uri=https://api.example.ionburst.cloud/

Usage

Initialise

package client

import (
    ionburst "gitlab.com/ionburst/ionburst-sdk-go"
}

func main() {
    //Create a new client using the default config
    client, err := ionburst.NewClient() 

    //Create a client with implicit path and credentials profile name
    client, err := ionburst.NewClientPathAndProfile(configFilePath, credentialsProfileName, setDebugMode [true/false])

}

Upload Data

//get a readable stream
ioReader, _ := os.Open(FilePath)

client.Put(FileID, ioReader, classification)
//if classification is an empty string ("") it wont be passed

//Upload from a filepath instead
client.PutFromFile(FileID, FilePath, classification)

Download Data

ioReader, err := client.Get(FileID)

//Download to a filepath instead
err := client.GetToFile(FileID, OutputFilePath)

//Download and output the size of the downloaded content
ioReader, sizeOfContent, err := client.GetWithLen(FileID)

Delete Data

err := client.Delete(FileID)

Get Classifcations

classifications, _ := client.GetClassifications()

Usage in Deferred Mode

Upload Data Deferred

token, err := cli.PutDeferred(name, r, "")
if err != nil {
    t.Error(err)
    return
}

Download Data Deferred

token, err := cli.GetDeferred(name)
if err != nil {
    t.Error(err)
    return
}

Check Data Deferred

res, err = cli.CheckDeferred(tk)
if err != nil {
    t.Error(err)
    return
} else if !res.Success {
    t.Error(fmt.Sprintf("ERR: %s - %d", res.Message, res.Status))
    return
} else {
    ...
}

Fetch Data Deferred

ioReader, err := cli.FetchDeferred(tk)
if err != nil {
    t.Error(err)
    return
}
