Sample JOSS application

This appendix contains a sample JOSS application that uses the HCP HSwift API and and JOSS SDK to perform a series of operations in HCP.

Assumptions

The application makes these assumptions:

  • The HCP system has a tenant named europe.
  • Keystone is installed and has a Keystone HCP tenant account named europe
  • The Keystone tenant has an admin user with the user name lgreen and the password p4ssw0rd
  • The tenant has a user account with user name lgreen and password p4ssw0rd.
  • By default, versioning is disabled for new containers.
  • The local file system has folders named input and output that are located in the current working folder for the application.
  • The input directory contains two files, Q4_2012.ppt and Q3_2012.ppt.

What the application does

The sample application shown in this appendix uses the HSwift API to:

  1. Create a container named finance in the context of the tenant named europe (the service point)
  2. List the container for the europe tenant that are owned by the user lgreen
  3. Add an ACL to the finance container
  4. Store an object named quarterly_rpts/Q4_2012.ppt in the finance container, associating custom metadata with the object in the process
  5. Store an object named quarterly_rpts/Q3_2012.ppt in the finance container
  6. Retrieve the object named quarterly_rpts/Q4_2012.ppt and write its content to a new file on the local file system
  7. Add an ACL to the container named finance for the account named rsilver
  8. Retrieve object quarterly_rpts/Q3_2012.ppt and write its content to a new file on the local file system
  9. Delete the quarterly_rpts/Q4_2012.ppt and quarterly_rpts/Q3_2012.ppt object from the finance container
  10. Delete the quarterly_rpts folder from the finance container (HCP created this folder automatically when the first object was stored)
  11. Delete the finance container

Required library

To run the sample application presented in this appendix, you need to have installed the following library:

JOSS application
