@aws-sdk/client-glacier-node

Description

Installing

To install the this package using NPM, simply type the following into a terminal window:

npm install @aws-sdk/client-glacier-node

Getting Started

Import

The AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commends in CommonJS modules. To send a request, you only need to import the client(GlacierClient) and the commands you need, for example UploadArchiveCommand:

//javascript
const { GlacierClient } = require('@aws-sdk/client-glacier-node/GlacierClient');
const { UploadArchiveCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-glacier-node/UploadArchiveCommand');

//typescript
const { GlacierClient } = import '@aws-sdk/client-glacier-node/GlacierClient';
const { UploadArchiveCommand } = import '@aws-sdk/client-glacier-node/commands/UploadArchiveCommand';

Usage

To send a request, you:

Initiate client with configurations.(credentials, region). For more information you can refer to the API reference.
Initiate command with input parameters.
Call send operation of client with command object as input.
If you are using a custom http handler, you may call destroy() to close open connections.

const glacier = new GlacierClient({region: 'region'});
//clients can be shared by different commands
const params = {
    vaultName: /**a string value*/,
    accountId: /**a string value*/,
    body: /**a blob value*/
    /**You can supply readable stream to streaming input. e.g. fs.createReadStream(file) */,
};
const uploadArchiveCommand = new UploadArchiveCommand(params);
glacier.send(uploadArchiveCommand).then(data => {
    // do something
}).catch(error => {
    // error handling
})

Besides using promise style, there are 2 other ways to send a request:

// async/await
try {
    const data = await glacier.send(uploadArchiveCommand);
    // do something
} catch(error) {
    // error handling
}

// callback
glacier.send(uploadArchiveCommand, (err, data) => {
    //do something
})

Besides using send(), the SDK can also send requests using the simplified callback style in version 2 of the SDK.

import * as AWS from '@aws-sdk/@aws-sdk/client-glacier-node/Glacier';
const glacier = new AWS.Glacier({region: 'region'})
glacier.uploadArchive(params, (err, data) => {
    //do something
})

For operations containing stream response like GetJobOutput(), you can get response stream by accessing to streaming member. e.g. data.body.pipe(/ some writable stream /).(data is the resolved response object)

Troubleshooting

When the service returns an exception, inpecting the exceptions is always helpful. You can not only access the exception information but also response metadata(i.e request id).

try {
    const data = await glacier.send(uploadArchiveCommand);
    // do something
} catch(error) {
    const metadata = error.$metadata;
    console.log(
`requestId: ${metadata.requestId}
cfId: ${metadata.cfId}
extendedRequestId: ${metadata.extendedRequestId}`
    );
/*
The keys within exceptions are also parsed, you can access them by specifying exception names like below:
    if(error.name === 'SomeServiceException') {
        const value = error.specialKeyInException;
    }
*/
}
