Create a Google Cloud Storage Bucket

See more Google Cloud Storage Examples

var success = false;

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

// This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
// scope "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform"

// In this example, Get Google Cloud Storage OAuth2 Access Token, 
// the service account access token was saved to a text file.  This example fetches the access token from the file..
var sbToken = new CkStringBuilder();
sbToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/googleCloudStorageAccessToken.txt","utf-8");

// ---- Step 1
// Create a JSON that contains the following information, replacing [VALUES_IN_BRACKETS] with the appropriate values:

// {
//   "name": "[BUCKET_NAME]",
//   "location": "[BUCKET_LOCATION]",
//   "storageClass": "[STORAGE_CLASS]"
// }

var json = new CkJsonObject();
json.UpdateString("name","chilkat-ocean");
json.UpdateString("location","us");
json.UpdateString("storageClass","multi_regional");

// ---- Step 2
// Send a POST equivalent to this curl command

// curl -X POST --data-binary @[JSON_FILE_NAME].json \
//      -H "Authorization: Bearer [OAUTH2_TOKEN]" \
//      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
//      "https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b?project=[PROJECT_ID]"

var http = new CkHttp();
http.AuthToken = sbToken.GetAsString();

http.SetUrlVar("project_id","chilkat-176611");
var url = "https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b?project={$project_id}";
var resp = new CkHttpResponse();
success = http.HttpJson("POST",url,json,"application/json",resp);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

var responseCode = resp.StatusCode;
if (responseCode == 401) {
    console.log(resp.BodyStr);
    console.log("If invalid credentials, then it is likely the access token expired.");
    console.log("Your app should automatically fetch a new access token and re-try.");
    return;
}

console.log("Response code: " + responseCode);
console.log("Response body");
console.log(resp.BodyStr);

// A successful response looks like this:
// Response code: 200
// Response body
// {
//  "kind": "storage#bucket",
//  "id": "chilkat-ocean",
//  "selfLink": "https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b/chilkat-ocean",

//  "metageneration": "1",
//  "location": "US",
//  "storageClass": "MULTI_REGIONAL",
//  "etag": "CAE="
// }
// 

// Parse the JSON response:
var jsonResp = new CkJsonObject();
jsonResp.Load(resp.BodyStr);

console.log("name: " + jsonResp.StringOf("name"));
console.log("timeCreated: " + jsonResp.StringOf("timeCreated"));

// Parse the date/time created.
var dt = new CkDateTime();
dt.SetFromTimestamp(jsonResp.StringOf("timeCreated"));
// ...
