(Visual FoxPro) Wasabi File Streaming Upload

See more Wasabi Examples

Demonstrates how to do a streaming upload from a file to the Wasabi storage service. The AWS authorization presents some difficulties when the REST request body is to be streamed from a file (or from some other source). The issue is that the SHA-256 hash of the file data must be calculated. There are only two possible ways to do this: (1) stream the file into memory in its entirety and calculate the SHA-256 hash prior to uploading, or (2) pre-calculate the SHA-256 in a streaming fashion, and then provide it to the AWS authentication object.

If the application does NOT pre-compute the SHA-256, then Chilkat (internally) is forced to stream into memory, calculate the SHA-256, and then upload from the in-memory copy of the file.

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

* This first part is optional.  AWS authentication requires
* the SHA-256 hash of the request body (i.e. the contents of the file
* to be uploaded).  We can choose to pre-calculate the SHA-256 in a streaming fashion
* and then provide it to the authenticator object.  This way, if the file is
* extremely large, it never needs to completely reside in memory.
* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Crypt2')
loCrypt = CreateObject('Chilkat.Crypt2')
* ----------------------------------------------------
* Important: Wasabi requires a lowercase hex format.

* This example will demonstrate uploading to a bucket in the eu-west-2 region
lnSuccess = loRest.Connect("s3.eu-west-2.wasabisys.com",lnPort,lnBTls,lnBAutoReconnect)

* Provide AWS credentials for the REST call.
* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.AuthAws')
loAuthAws = CreateObject('Chilkat.AuthAws')
loAuthAws.AccessKey = "access-key"

lnSuccess = loRest.SetAuthAws(loAuthAws)

loRest.AddHeader("Expect","100-continue")
loRest.AddHeader("Content-Type","application/xml")

* Set the bucket name via the HOST header.
* In this case, the bucket name is "chilkat100".
loRest.Host = "chilkat100.s3.eu-west-2.wasabisys.com"

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Stream')
loFileStream = CreateObject('Chilkat.Stream')
loFileStream.SourceFile = lcFileToUploadPath

* Upload to the Wasabi Storage service.
* If the application provided the SHA-256 hash of the file contents (as shown above)
* then file is streamed and never has to completely reside in memory.
* If the application did NOT provide the SHA-256, then Chilkat will (internally) 
* load the entire file into memory, calculate the SHA-256, and then upload.
