Download Object

The SDKs present in the section will allow you to download a particular object, or version of the object. The Bucket reference used in the below code snippet is the component instance.

The first step of the download operation is a GET operation that retrieves the required object from the bucket.

To be able to download an object, the requester must have READ access permissions. However, owners of the bucket do have the option to grant READ access permissions to users, allowing them to download the object without using the required response headers.

If Versioning is enabled for your bucket, you need to pass the versionId to download the particular version of the object. If no versionId is passed, then by default, the latest version of the object will be downloaded.

If Versioning was enabled for a bucket, then disabled. By default, the principal first object will be downloaded. To ensure you download the latest version of this object, you need to pass the versionId param with the value “topVersion”.

Ensure the following packages are imported

    
copy
import java.nio.file.Path; import java.nio.file.Files; import java.nio.file.StandardCopyOption; import java.io.*;
    
copy
InputStream dataStream = bucket.getObject("sam/out/sample.txt"); // download the object to your local machine Path path = Path.of("file_path"); // specify a path to store the downloaded object Files.copy(dataStream, path, StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);

Download a Portion of the Object

The following SDK implements the setRange() method. This method allows you to download a specific range of bytes of an object.

Ensure the following packages are imported

    
copy
import com.zc.component.stratus.beans.ZCGetObjectOptions; import java.nio.file.Path; import java.nio.file.Files; import java.nio.file.StandardCopyOption; import java.io.*;
    
copy
// add download options ZCGetObjectOptions options = ZCGetObjectOptions.getInstance(); options.setVersionId("3yt5ehjbjghds3i28"); options.setRange("20-200"); // start and end range of the object in bytes InputStream dataStream = bucket.getObject("sam/out/sample.txt", options); // download the object to your local machine Path path = Path.of("file_path"); // specify a path to store the downloaded object Files.copy(dataStream, path, StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);

Download an Object Using Transfer Manager

In this section, we are going to go over SDK methods that will allow you to successfully download large objects from Stratus to your local system using Transfer Manager technique. Transfer Manager is an operation where the large object is split into multiple byte ranges using the start and end bytes range of the object. Each of the object’s parts is then returned as a stream, and they are downloaded to your local system.

Create Transfer Manager Instance

Ensure the following packages are imported

    
copy
import com.zc.component.stratus.transfer.ZCTransferManager;
    
copy
ZCTransferManager transferManager= ZCTransferManager.getInstance(bucket);

Download Object as Iterable Part Streams

Ensure the following packages are imported

    
copy
import java.nio.file.StandardOpenOption; import java.nio.file.Files; import java.util.Iterator; import java.nio.file.Path; import java.io.*;
    
copy
Iterable <InputStream> Iterable = transferManager.getIterableObject("sam/out/sample.txt", 100 L); Path path = Path.of("file_path"); Iterator <InputStream> res = Iterable.iterator(); while (res.hasNext()) { InputStream data = res.next(); // get each part of the object as stream Files.copy(data, path, StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING); // write the stream to local file path }

Generate Object Parts for Download

In this SDK method we will download a portion of the object that falls under the required start and end range of bytes.

Parameters Used

  • PartSize: It is the size of each part in Mb
  • key: Will hold the name of the object

Ensure the following packages are imported

    
copy
import java.nio.file.StandardOpenOption; import java.nio.file.Files; import com.zc.component.stratus.beans.ZCStratusGetObject; import java.nio.file.Path; import java.io.*;
    
copy
Path path = Path.of("file_path"); // get the list of part functions List<ZCStratusGetObject> parts = transferManager.generatePartDownloaders("sam/out/sample.txt", 100L); // create a file to store the downloaded stream. Files.createFile(path); int partNumber = 1; // trigger the each function to download the object parts for (ZCStratusGetObject part : parts) { // get object part as stream InputStream inputStream = part.getPart(); System.out.println("Part "+ partNumber++ + " Downloaded"); // write the stream data to local machine Files.write(path, inputStream.readAllBytes(), StandardOpenOption.APPEND); }

Generate Presigned URL to Download an Object

Presigned URLs are secure URLs that authenticated users can share to their non-authenticated users. This URL will provide non-authenticated users with temporary authorization to access objects. The Bucket reference used in the below code snippet is the component instance.

Info: To use this SDK method, you need intialize it with Admin scope. You can learn more about this requirement from this section

Parameters Used

Parameter Name Data Type Definition
key String A Mandatory parameter. Will hold the complete name of the object along with it's path.
URL_ACTION Enum A Mandatory parameter. This is the parameter that will allow you to generate a presigned URL for download action.
  • URL_ACTION.GET: To download an object
expiry String This is an Optional parameter. The URL validity time in seconds.
  • Default value: 3600 seconds
  • Minimum value: 30 seconds
  • Maximum value: 7 days
activeFrom String This is an Optional parameter. This param will contain the time after which the URL is valid. Maximum value is 7 days. URLs are made active as soon as they are generated by default.

Ensure the following packages are imported

    
copy
import com.zc.component.stratus.enums.URL_ACTION; import org.json.simple.JSONObject;
    
copy
JSONObject res = bucket.generatePreSignedUrl("sam/out/sample.txt",URL_ACTION.GET); System.out.println(res.get("signature"));

Generate Presigned URL With Expiry and Active Time

Ensure the following packages are imported

    
copy
import com.zc.component.stratus.enums.URL_ACTION; import org.json.simple.JSONObject;
    
copy
JSONObject res = bucket.generatePreSignedUrl("object_name",URL_ACTION.GET, "expiry_in","active_from"); System.out.println(res.get("signature"));

Example Response for Generating a Presigned URL for Download

    
copy
{ signature: 'https://sadi-development.zoho stratus.com/_signed/text.txt?organizationId=96862383&stsCredential=96858154-96862383&stsDate=1747896279887&stsExpiresAfter=300&stsSignedHeaders=host&stsSignature=3YBUX1HFSxNQzQJjFrln82AyJsEEuC5T9dsZwWxGyEE' }
