storage

This modules provides methods manage object storage in Google Cloud Storage.

How to use

Import

import { FileStorage } from 'storage'

Init

First, we need an instance of FileStorage

export const fileStorage = new FileStorage({
  bucket: 'BUCKET_NAME',
  keyFilename: 'STORAGE_KEY_FILENAME',
})

• STORAGE_KEY_FILENAME is the credential file URI

Upload file

Upload a file to the remote storage.

const fileName = await fileStorage.upload(
        {
            pathDestination: 'path',
            fileName: 'testFile',
            file: Buffer.from('Test content', 'utf-8'),
            contentType: "text/plain"
            metadata: { something: 'here' }
        }
)

// fileName -> path/testFile

// OR
const fileName = await fileStorage.send(
        {
            pathDestination: 'path',
            fileName: 'testFile',
            file: fs.createReadStream('./test.png'),
            contentType: "img/png"
            metadata: { something: 'here' }
        }
)

// fileName -> path/testFile

• The file attribute MUST be a Buffer or a ReadableStream.
• The contentType attribute is not required default to "application/octet-stream"
• The metadata object is not required. Values are converted to string

Download file

Download a file from the bucket

const fileBuffer = await fileStorage.download(fileName)

• fileName is the string returned by the upload() method

Misc

getMetadata

Get the global metadata of an object

const metadata = await fileStorage.getMetadata(fileName)

/*
metadata ->
{ kind: 'storage#object',
  id: 'sandbox',
  selfLink:
   'https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b/BUCKET_NAME/o/path%2FtestFile',

  bucket: 'BUCKET_NAME',
  generation: '123456789',

  contentType: 'application/octet-stream',
  storageClass: 'STANDARD',

  metadata: { something: 'here', type: 'text' }
}
