(Lianja) Use an Azure Service SAS

Shows how to use an Azure Service SAS. (In this case, it is an SAS for a blob.)

// Azure Blob Service Example: Upload binary bytes to a block blob.
// This uses a Service SAS for Authorization.

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

loRest = createobject("CkRest")

// Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
llBTls = .T.
lnPort = 443
llBAutoReconnect = .T.
// In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".
llSuccess = loRest.Connect("chilkat.blob.core.windows.net",lnPort,llBTls,llBAutoReconnect)
if (llSuccess <> .T.) then
    ? loRest.LastErrorText
    release loRest
    return
endif

// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// The code above this comment could be placed inside a function/subroutine within the application
// because the connection does not need to be made for every request.  Once the connection is made
// the app may send many requests..
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

// Let's load a previously computed Azure Storage Account SAS token and use it.
// See How to Create an Azure Service SAS
loSbToken = createobject("CkStringBuilder")
llSuccess = loSbToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/azureStorageServiceSas.txt","utf-8")
if (llSuccess <> .T.) then
    ? "Failed to load SAS token."
    release loRest
    release loSbToken
    return
endif

// Add the Shared Access Signature query params for authorization.
loRest.AddQueryParams(loSbToken.GetAsString())

// IMPORTANT: Make sure to set the x-ms-blob-type header:
llSuccess = loRest.AddHeader("x-ms-blob-type","BlockBlob")

// IMPORTANT: Make sure to add the x-ms-date header.
// When the header name is "x-ms-date", Chilkat will recognize the keyword "NOW" 
// and will substitute the current system date/time formatted as required by Microsoft.
llSuccess = loRest.AddHeader("x-ms-date","NOW")

// For this example, we'll just load a JPG file into memory..
loBinData = createobject("CkBinData")
llSuccess = loBinData.LoadFile("qa_data/jpg/starfish.jpg")
if (llSuccess <> .T.) then
    ? "Failed to load JPG file."
    release loRest
    release loSbToken
    release loBinData
    return
endif

// Note: The maximum size of a block blob created by uploading in a single step is 64MB.  
// For larger files, the upload must be broken up into blocks.  There is another Chilkat example for that..
loSbResponse = createobject("CkStringBuilder")
llSuccess = loRest.FullRequestBd("PUT","/mycontainer/starfish.jpg",loBinData,loSbResponse)
if (llSuccess <> .T.) then
    ? loRest.LastErrorText
    release loRest
    release loSbToken
    release loBinData
    release loSbResponse
    return
endif

// When successful, the Azure Storage service will respond with a 201 response status code,
// with no response body.
if (loRest.ResponseStatusCode <> 201) then
    // Examine the request/response to see what happened.
    ? "response status code = " + str(loRest.ResponseStatusCode)
    ? "response status text = " + loRest.ResponseStatusText
    ? "response header: " + loRest.ResponseHeader
    ? "response body (if any): " + loSbResponse.GetAsString()
    ? "---"
    ? "LastRequestStartLine: " + loRest.LastRequestStartLine
    ? "LastRequestHeader: " + loRest.LastRequestHeader
    ? "Failed."
    release loRest
