Azure File Service: Create a Directory

See more Azure Cloud Storage Examples

Sample code to create a directory and then a sub-directory in a share in the Azure File Service. Rust

// Azure File Service Example: Create a Directory
// See:  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/create-directory

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

let rest = chilkat::Rest::new();

// Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
let b_tls = true;
let port = 443;
let b_auto_reconnect = true;
// In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".
if rest.connect("chilkat.file.core.windows.net", port, b_tls, b_auto_reconnect).is_err() {
    println!("{}", rest.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST calls.
let az_auth = chilkat::AuthAzureStorage::new();
az_auth.set_access_key("AZURE_ACCESS_KEY");
// The account name used here should match the 1st part of the domain passed in the call to Connect (above).
az_auth.set_account("chilkat");
az_auth.set_scheme("SharedKey");
az_auth.set_service("File");
// This causes the "x-ms-version: 2021-08-06" header to be automatically added.
az_auth.set_x_ms_version("2021-08-06");
let _ = rest.set_auth_azure_storage(&az_auth).is_ok();

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

// Send a PUT request to create a directory named "wildlife" in the "pip" share.
let Ok(mut response_str) = rest.full_request_no_body("PUT", "/pip/wildlife?restype=directory") else {
    println!("{}", rest.last_error_text());

// with no XML response body.  If an error response is returned, there will be an XML response body.
