Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

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

local http = chilkat.Http.new()

-- Insert your AccessKey ID here:
http.aws_access_key = "access-key"

-- Insert your AccessKey Secret here:
http.aws_secret_key = "secret-key"

-- To download from a bucket located in a different region, use the endpoint for that region, such as "oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com     "
-- See Alibaba Object Storage Service Regions and Endpoints
http.aws_endpoint = "oss-us-east-1.aliyuncs.com"

local bucketName = "chilkat"
local objectName = "orchard.json"

-- This is the byte representation of the text file downloaded from Aliyun.
-- It must be specified to allow Chilkat to correctly interpret the bytes as characters.
local charset = "utf-8"

local fileContents = http:s3_download_string(bucketName, objectName, charset)

if not http.last_method_success then
    print(http.last_error_text)
else
    print(fileContents)
    print("Success.")
