How does go client sdk create dir path in a bucket ?

@goodforever we don't support directories on Minio. You can just upload and object with prefix parent dirs are automatically created.

@harshavardhana i not quite understand what you said You can just upload and object with prefix parent dirs are automatically created. when i upload the file, the minio-browser only upload the file without the parent dirs. Do you mean mc cp XXX

I am talking about mc cp browser is not meant for uploading large sets of files. One if better off using tools like this.

$ mc cp /etc/issue play/harsha/1/2/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/1
/etc/issue:                26 B / 26 B ┃▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓┃ 100.00% 221 B/s 0s

```

Not just mc cp you can use any tools like aws cli , s3cmd etc.

From an SDK point of view

package main

import (
	"bytes"
	"log"

	minio "github.com/minio/minio-go"
)

func main() {
	// Note: YOUR-ACCESSKEYID, YOUR-SECRETACCESSKEY, my-testfile, my-bucketname and
	// my-objectname are dummy values, please replace them with original values.

	// Requests are always secure (HTTPS) by default. Set secure=false to enable insecure (HTTP) access.
	// This boolean value is the last argument for New().

	// New returns an Amazon S3 compatible client object. API compatibility (v2 or v4) is automatically
	// determined based on the Endpoint value.
	s3Client, err := minio.New("YOUR-SERVER:9000", "YOUR-ACCESSKEYID", "YOUR-SECRETACCESSKEY", true)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}

	n, err := s3Client.PutObject("my-bucketname", "2/3/my/prefix/object", bytes.NewReader([]byte("Hello, World")), "application/octet-stream")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}
	log.Println("Uploaded", "2/3/my/prefix/object", " of size: ", n, "Successfully.")
}

2/3/my/prefix/ prefix of choice and object.

what is the name format with prefix parent dirs ? Can you give a example ?

@goodforever here is the example

package main

import (
	"bytes"
	"log"

	minio "github.com/minio/minio-go"
)

func main() {
	// Note: YOUR-ACCESSKEYID, YOUR-SECRETACCESSKEY, my-testfile, my-bucketname and
	// my-objectname are dummy values, please replace them with original values.

	// Requests are always secure (HTTPS) by default. Set secure=false to enable insecure (HTTP) access.
	// This boolean value is the last argument for New().

	// New returns an Amazon S3 compatible client object. API compatibility (v2 or v4) is automatically
	// determined based on the Endpoint value.
	s3Client, err := minio.New("YOUR-SERVER:9000", "YOUR-ACCESSKEYID", "YOUR-SECRETACCESSKEY", true)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}

	n, err := s3Client.PutObject("my-bucketname", "2/3/my/prefix/object", bytes.NewReader([]byte("Hello, World")), "application/octet-stream")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}
	log.Println("Uploaded", "2/3/my/prefix/object", " of size: ", n, "Successfully.")
}

Observe here '2/3/my/prefix' is the parent directory for the object named object . On Minio this is a flat key conceptually there is no directory.

Thanks ,I just need this what you said.
