<?php

// 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..
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.StringBuilder')
$sbToken = new COM("Chilkat.StringBuilder");
$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]"
// }

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.JsonObject')
$json = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$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]"

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Http')
$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");
$http->AuthToken = $sbToken->getAsString();

$http->SetUrlVar('project_id','chilkat-176611');
$url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b?project={$project_id}';
// resp is a Chilkat.HttpResponse
$resp = $http->PostJson3($url,'application/json',$json);
if ($http->LastMethodSuccess == 0) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

$responseCode = $resp->StatusCode;
if ($responseCode == 401) {
    print $resp->BodyStr . "\n";
    print 'If invalid credentials, then it is likely the access token expired.' . "\n";
    print 'Your app should automatically fetch a new access token and re-try.' . "\n";

    exit;
}

print 'Response code: ' . $responseCode . "\n";
print 'Response body' . "\n";
print $resp->BodyStr . "\n";

// 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",
//  "projectNumber": "933037264567",
//  "name": "chilkat-ocean",

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

// Parse the JSON response:
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.JsonObject')
$jsonResp = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$jsonResp->Load($resp->BodyStr);

print 'name: ' . $jsonResp->stringOf('name') . "\n";
print 'timeCreated: ' . $jsonResp->stringOf('timeCreated') . "\n";

// Parse the date/time created.
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.CkDateTime')
$dt = new COM("Chilkat.CkDateTime");
$dt->SetFromTimestamp($jsonResp->stringOf('timeCreated'));
