Accessors

containerName

  • get containerName(): string

Methods

create

createIfNotExists

delete

  • Returns true if the Azure container resource represented by this client exists; false otherwise.

    NOTE: use this function with care since an existing container might be deleted by other clients or applications. Vice versa new containers with the same name might be added by other clients or applications after this function completes.

    Parameters

    • blobName: string

      A block blob name

      Example usage:

      const content = "Hello world!";
      
      const blockBlobClient = containerClient.getBlockBlobClient("<blob name>");
      const uploadBlobResponse = await blockBlobClient.upload(content, content.length);

getPageBlobClient

listBlobsByHierarchy

  • Returns an async iterable iterator to list all the blobs by hierarchy. under the specified account.

    .byPage() returns an async iterable iterator to list the blobs by hierarchy in pages.

    Example using for await syntax:

    for await (const item of containerClient.listBlobsByHierarchy("/")) {
      if (item.kind === "prefix") {
        console.log(`\tBlobPrefix: ${item.name}`);
      } else {
        console.log(`\tBlobItem: name - ${item.name}, last modified - ${item.properties.lastModified}`);
      }
    }

    Example using iter.next():

    let iter = containerClient.listBlobsByHierarchy("/", { prefix: "prefix1/" });
    let entity = await iter.next();
    while (!entity.done) {
      let item = entity.value;
      if (item.kind === "prefix") {
        console.log(`\tBlobPrefix: ${item.name}`);
      } else {
        console.log(`\tBlobItem: name - ${item.name}, last modified - ${item.properties.lastModified}`);
      }
      entity = await iter.next();
    }

    Example using byPage():

    console.log("Listing blobs by hierarchy by page");
    for await (const response of containerClient.listBlobsByHierarchy("/").byPage()) {
      const segment = response.segment;
      if (segment.blobPrefixes) {
        for (const prefix of segment.blobPrefixes) {
          console.log(`\tBlobPrefix: ${prefix.name}`);
        }
      }
      for (const blob of response.segment.blobItems) {
        console.log(`\tBlobItem: name - ${blob.name}, last modified - ${blob.properties.lastModified}`);
      }
    }

    Example using paging with a max page size:

    console.log("Listing blobs by hierarchy by page, specifying a prefix and a max page size");
    
    let i = 1;
    for await (const response of containerClient.listBlobsByHierarchy("/", { prefix: "prefix2/sub1/"}).byPage({ maxPageSize: 2 })) {
      console.log(`Page ${i++}`);
      const segment = response.segment;
    
      if (segment.blobPrefixes) {
        for (const prefix of segment.blobPrefixes) {
          console.log(`\tBlobPrefix: ${prefix.name}`);
        }
      }
    
      for (const blob of response.segment.blobItems) {
        console.log(`\tBlobItem: name - ${blob.name}, last modified - ${blob.properties.lastModified}`);
      }
    }

    Parameters

    • delimiter: string

      The character or string used to define the virtual hierarchy

    • Default value options: ContainerListBlobsOptions = {}

      Options to list blobs operation.

    Returns PagedAsyncIterableIterator<({ kind: "prefix" } & BlobPrefix) | ({ kind: "blob" } & BlobItem), ContainerListBlobHierarchySegmentResponse>

listBlobsFlat

  • Returns an async iterable iterator to list all the blobs under the specified account.

    .byPage() returns an async iterable iterator to list the blobs in pages.

    Example using for await syntax:

    // Get the containerClient before you run these snippets,
    // Can be obtained from `blobServiceClient.getContainerClient("<your-container-name>");`
    let i = 1;
    for await (const blob of containerClient.listBlobsFlat()) {
      console.log(`Blob ${i++}: ${blob.name}`);
    }

    Example using iter.next():

    let i = 1;
    let iter = containerClient.listBlobsFlat();
    let blobItem = await iter.next();
    while (!blobItem.done) {
      console.log(`Blob ${i++}: ${blobItem.value.name}`);
      blobItem = await iter.next();
    }

    Example using byPage():

    // passing optional maxPageSize in the page settings
    let i = 1;
    for await (const response of containerClient.listBlobsFlat().byPage({ maxPageSize: 20 })) {
      for (const blob of response.segment.blobItems) {
        console.log(`Blob ${i++}: ${blob.name}`);
      }
    }

    Example using paging with a marker:

    let i = 1;
    let iterator = containerClient.listBlobsFlat().byPage({ maxPageSize: 2 });
    let response = (await iterator.next()).value;
    
    // Prints 2 blob names
    for (const blob of response.segment.blobItems) {
      console.log(`Blob ${i++}: ${blob.name}`);
    }
    
    // Gets next marker
    let marker = response.continuationToken;
    
    // Passing next marker as continuationToken
    
    iterator = containerClient.listBlobsFlat().byPage({ continuationToken: marker, maxPageSize: 10 });
    response = (await iterator.next()).value;
    
    // Prints 10 blob names
    for (const blob of response.segment.blobItems) {
      console.log(`Blob ${i++}: ${blob.name}`);
    }

    Parameters

    Returns PagedAsyncIterableIterator<BlobItem, ContainerListBlobFlatSegmentResponse>

    An asyncIterableIterator that supports paging.

setAccessPolicy

  • Sets the permissions for the specified container. The permissions indicate whether blobs in a container may be accessed publicly.

    When you set permissions for a container, the existing permissions are replaced. If no access or containerAcl provided, the existing container ACL will be removed.

    When you establish a stored access policy on a container, it may take up to 30 seconds to take effect. During this interval, a shared access signature that is associated with the stored access policy will fail with status code 403 (Forbidden), until the access policy becomes active.

    see

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/set-container-acl

    Parameters

    • Optional access: PublicAccessType

      The level of public access to data in the container.

    • Optional containerAcl: SignedIdentifier[]

      Array of elements each having a unique Id and details of the access policy.

    • Default value options: ContainerSetAccessPolicyOptions = {}

      Options to Container Set Access Policy operation.

    Returns Promise<ContainerSetAccessPolicyResponse>
