Azure Storage: Download Blob to File

See more Azure Cloud Storage Examples

Sample code to download an Azure blob to a file. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

rest = Chilkat::CkRest.new()

# Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
bTls = true
port = 443
bAutoReconnect = true
# In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".
success = rest.Connect("chilkat.blob.core.windows.net",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect)
if (success != true)
    print rest.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
azAuth = Chilkat::CkAuthAzureStorage.new()
azAuth.put_AccessKey("AZURE_ACCESS_KEY")
# The account name used here should match the 1st part of the domain passed in the call to Connect (above).
azAuth.put_Account("chilkat")
azAuth.put_Scheme("SharedKey")
azAuth.put_Service("Blob")
# This causes the "x-ms-version: 2021-08-06" header to be automatically added.
azAuth.put_XMsVersion("2021-08-06")
success = rest.SetAuthAzureStorage(azAuth)

# 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.

# Setup a file stream for the download
fileStream = Chilkat::CkStream.new()
fileStream.put_SinkFile("C:/temp/qa_output/starfish.jpg")

# Indicate that the call to FullRequestNoBody should send the response body
# to fileStream if the response status code is 200.
# If a non-success response status code is received, then nothing
# is streamed to the output file and the error response is returned by FullRequestNoBody.
