Glacier Initiate Archive Retrieval Job

See more Amazon Glacier Examples

Demonstrates how to initiate an archive retrieval job to download an archive.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.78 or greater.

Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

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

    let rest = CkoRest()!

    // Connect to the Amazon AWS REST server in the desired region.
    var bTls: Bool = true
    var port: Int = 443
    var bAutoReconnect: Bool = true
    success = rest.connect(hostname: "glacier.us-west-2.amazonaws.com", port: port, tls: bTls, autoReconnect: bAutoReconnect)

    // Provide AWS credentials.
    let authAws = CkoAuthAws()!
    authAws.accessKey = "AWS_ACCESS_KEY"
    authAws.secretKey = "AWS_SECRET_KEY"
    authAws.serviceName = "glacier"
    authAws.region = "us-west-2"

    success = rest.setAuthAws(authProvider: authAws)

    // --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // Note: The above REST connection and setup of the AWS credentials
    // can be done once.  After connecting, any number of REST calls can be made.
    // The "auto reconnect" property passed to rest.Connect indicates that if
    // the connection is lost, a REST method call will automatically reconnect
    // if needed.
