Backblaze S3 Upload String

See more Backblaze S3 Examples

Demonstrates how to upload the contents of a string to an Backblaze bucket.

The Chilkat S3 functions in the HTTP class are compatible with the Backblaze service.

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()

-- keyID = Access Key ID or Access Key
http.aws_access_key = "access-key"

-- applicationKey = Secret Access Key or Secret Key
http.aws_secret_key = "secret-key"

-- Region is the 2nd part of your S3 Endpoint
http.aws_endpoint = "s3.us-west-002.backblazeb2.com"

local bucketName = "chilkat-test"
local objectName = "orchard.json"
local contentType = "application/json"

http.keep_response_body = true

-- Let's say we have JSON in a string and want to upload it to a file in Backblaze..
local jsonStr = "{ \"orchard\": \"apple\" }"

-- The charset indicates the byte representation of what is uploaded.
-- If needed, Chilkat will internally convert to the desired byte representation before uploading.
local charset = "utf-8"
local success = http:s3_upload_string(jsonStr, charset, contentType, bucketName, objectName)

if not success then
    print(http.last_error_text)

    local xml = chilkat.Xml.new()
    xml:load_xml(http.last_response_body)
    print(xml:get_xml())
else
    print("String uploaded.")
end
