(JavaScript) Get Container ACL

Azure Storage Blob Service REST API: Sample code to get the permissions of a container.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

var success = false;

// Azure Blob Service Example: Get Container ACL
// See also: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dd179469.aspx

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

var rest = new CkRest();

// Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
var bTls = true;
var port = 443;
var bAutoReconnect = true;
// In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".
success = rest.Connect("chilkat.blob.core.windows.net",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
var azAuth = new CkAuthAzureStorage();
azAuth.AccessKey = "AZURE_ACCESS_KEY";
// The account name used here should match the 1st part of the domain passed in the call to Connect (above).
azAuth.Account = "chilkat";
azAuth.Scheme = "SharedKey";
azAuth.Service = "Blob";
// This causes the "x-ms-version: 2021-08-06" header to be automatically added.
azAuth.XMsVersion = "2021-08-06";
success = rest.SetAuthAzureStorage(azAuth);

// Note: The application does not need to explicitly set the following
// headers: x-ms-date, Authorization.  These headers
// are automatically set by Chilkat.

// The expected success response is a 200 response status code with an XML response body.
// In this example, we are getting the ACL permissions of the container named "mycontainer".
var responseStr = rest.FullRequestNoBody("GET","/mycontainer?restype=container&comp=acl");
if (rest.LastMethodSuccess == false) {
    console.log(rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// When successful, the Azure Storage service will respond with a 200 response status code,
// with an XML response body.

if (rest.ResponseStatusCode !== 200) {
    // Examine the request/response to see what happened.
    console.log("response status code = " + rest.ResponseStatusCode);
    console.log("response status text = " + rest.ResponseStatusText);
    console.log("response header: " + rest.ResponseHeader);
    console.log("response body (if any): " + responseStr);
    console.log("---");
    console.log("LastRequestStartLine: " + rest.LastRequestStartLine);
    console.log("LastRequestHeader: " + rest.LastRequestHeader);
    return;
}

// Load the XML response for parsing.
// An example of the response XML is shown below.
var xml = new CkXml();
success = xml.LoadXml(responseStr);

console.log(xml.GetXml());

// Use the ChilkatPath method to get various pieces of information out
// of the XML.  For example:

console.log("Id = " + xml.ChilkatPath("SignedIdentifier|Id|*"));
var startTimeStr = xml.ChilkatPath("SignedIdentifier|AccessPolicy|Start|*");
console.log("Start Time = " + startTimeStr);

// The date/time string can be loaded into a CkDateTime object for 
// access to individual parts, or conversion to other formats.
var dateTime = new CkDateTime();
success = dateTime.SetFromTimestamp(startTimeStr);

// For example..
var bLocalTime = true;
var dt = new CkDtObj();
dateTime.ToDtObj(bLocalTime,dt);

console.log(dt.Year + "/" + dt.Month + "/" + dt.Day);

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <SignedIdentifiers>
//     <SignedIdentifier>
//         <Id>46KdrjGoh6bEJVbbLAKSVDLH3bBcjPKn</Id>
//         <AccessPolicy>
//             <Start>2016-05-04T22:10:49.0000000Z</Start>
//             <Expiry>2017-05-04T22:10:49.0000000Z</Expiry>
//             <Permission>rwd</Permission>
//         </AccessPolicy>
//     </SignedIdentifier>
// </SignedIdentifiers>
