Methods

abortCopyFromURL

appendBlock

  • Commits a new block of data to the end of the existing append blob.

    see

    https://docs.microsoft.com/rest/api/storageservices/append-block

    Parameters

    • body: HttpRequestBody

      Data to be appended.

    • contentLength: number

      Length of the body in bytes.

    • Default value options: AppendBlobAppendBlockOptions = {}

      Options to the Append Block operation.

      Example usage:

      const content = "Hello World!";
      
      // Create a new append blob and append data to the blob.
      const newAppendBlobClient = containerClient.getAppendBlobClient("<blob name>");
      await newAppendBlobClient.create();
      await newAppendBlobClient.appendBlock(content, content.length);
      
      // Append data to an existing append blob.
      const existingAppendBlobClient = containerClient.getAppendBlobClient("<blob name>");
      await existingAppendBlobClient.appendBlock(content, content.length);

    Returns Promise<AppendBlobAppendBlockResponse>

appendBlockFromURL

beginCopyFromURL

  • Asynchronously copies a blob to a destination within the storage account. This method returns a long running operation poller that allows you to wait indefinitely until the copy is completed. You can also cancel a copy before it is completed by calling cancelOperation on the poller. Note that the onProgress callback will not be invoked if the operation completes in the first request, and attempting to cancel a completed copy will result in an error being thrown.

    In version 2012-02-12 and later, the source for a Copy Blob operation can be a committed blob in any Azure storage account. Beginning with version 2015-02-21, the source for a Copy Blob operation can be an Azure file in any Azure storage account. Only storage accounts created on or after June 7th, 2012 allow the Copy Blob operation to copy from another storage account.

    see

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/copy-blob

    Example using automatic polling:

    const copyPoller = await blobClient.beginCopyFromURL('url');
    const result = await copyPoller.pollUntilDone();

    Example using manual polling:

    const copyPoller = await blobClient.beginCopyFromURL('url');
    while (!poller.isDone()) {
       await poller.poll();
    }
    const result = copyPoller.getResult();

    Example using progress updates:

    const copyPoller = await blobClient.beginCopyFromURL('url', {
      onProgress(state) {
        console.log(`Progress: ${state.copyProgress}`);
      }
    });
    const result = await copyPoller.pollUntilDone();

    Example using a changing polling interval (default 15 seconds):

    const copyPoller = await blobClient.beginCopyFromURL('url', {
      intervalInMs: 1000 // poll blob every 1 second for copy progress
    });
    const result = await copyPoller.pollUntilDone();

    Example using copy cancellation:

    const copyPoller = await blobClient.beginCopyFromURL('url');
    // cancel operation after starting it.
    try {
      await copyPoller.cancelOperation();
      // calls to get the result now throw PollerCancelledError
      await copyPoller.getResult();
    } catch (err) {
      if (err.name === 'PollerCancelledError') {
        console.log('The copy was cancelled.');
      }
    }

    Parameters

    • copySource: string

      url to the source Azure Blob/File.

    • Default value options: BlobBeginCopyFromURLOptions = {}

      Optional options to the Blob Start Copy From URL operation.

    Returns Promise<PollerLike<PollOperationState<BlobBeginCopyFromURLResponse>, BlobBeginCopyFromURLResponse>>

download

  • Reads or downloads a blob from the system, including its metadata and properties. You can also call Get Blob to read a snapshot.

    • In Node.js, data returns in a Readable stream readableStreamBody
    • In browsers, data returns in a promise blobBody
    see

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/get-blob

    Parameters

    • Default value offset: number = 0

      From which position of the blob to download, greater than or equal to 0

    • Optional count: undefined | number

      How much data to be downloaded, greater than 0. Will download to the end when undefined

    • Default value options: BlobDownloadOptions = {}

      Optional options to Blob Download operation.

      Example usage (Node.js):

      // Download and convert a blob to a string
      const downloadBlockBlobResponse = await blobClient.download();
      const downloaded = await streamToBuffer(downloadBlockBlobResponse.readableStreamBody);
      console.log("Downloaded blob content:", downloaded.toString());
      
      async function streamToBuffer(readableStream) {
      return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      const chunks = [];
      readableStream.on("data", (data) => {
      chunks.push(data instanceof Buffer ? data : Buffer.from(data));
      });
      readableStream.on("end", () => {
      resolve(Buffer.concat(chunks));
      });
      readableStream.on("error", reject);
      });
      }

      Example usage (browser):

      // Download and convert a blob to a string
      const downloadBlockBlobResponse = await blobClient.download();
      const downloaded = await blobToString(await downloadBlockBlobResponse.blobBody);
      console.log(
        "Downloaded blob content",
        downloaded
      );
      
      async function blobToString(blob: Blob): Promise<string> {
        const fileReader = new FileReader();
        return new Promise<string>((resolve, reject) => {
          fileReader.onloadend = (ev: any) => {
            resolve(ev.target!.result);
          };
          fileReader.onerror = reject;
          fileReader.readAsText(blob);
