object/service.proto

Service "object.Service"

Object service provides API for manipulating with the object.

rpc Get(GetRequest) returns (stream GetResponse);
rpc Put(stream PutRequest) returns (PutResponse);
rpc Delete(DeleteRequest) returns (DeleteResponse);
rpc Head(HeadRequest) returns (HeadResponse);
rpc Search(SearchRequest) returns (stream SearchResponse);
rpc GetRange(GetRangeRequest) returns (stream GetRangeResponse);
rpc GetRangeHash(GetRangeHashRequest) returns (GetRangeHashResponse);

Method Get

Get the object from container. Response uses gRPC stream. First response message carry object of requested address. Chunk messages are parts of the object's payload if it is needed. All messages except first carry chunks. Requested object can be restored by concatenation of object message payload and all chunks keeping receiving order.

Name	Input	Output
Get	GetRequest	GetResponse

Method Put

Put the object into container. Request uses gRPC stream. First message SHOULD BE type of PutHeader. Container id and Owner id of object SHOULD BE set. Session token SHOULD BE obtained before put operation (see session package). Chunk messages considered by server as part of object payload. All messages except first SHOULD BE chunks. Chunk messages SHOULD BE sent in direct order of fragmentation.

Name	Input	Output
Put	PutRequest	PutResponse

Method Delete

Delete the object from a container

Name	Input	Output
Delete	DeleteRequest	DeleteResponse

Method Head

Head returns the object without data payload. Object in the response has system header only. If full headers flag is set, extended headers are also present.

Name	Input	Output
Head	HeadRequest	HeadResponse

Method Search

Search objects in container. Version of query language format SHOULD BE set to 1. Search query represented in serialized format (see query package).

Name	Input	Output
Search	SearchRequest	SearchResponse

Method GetRange

GetRange of data payload. Range is a pair (offset, length). Requested range can be restored by concatenation of all chunks keeping receiving order.

Name	Input	Output
GetRange	GetRangeRequest	GetRangeResponse

Method GetRangeHash

GetRangeHash returns homomorphic hash of object payload range after XOR operation. Ranges are set of pairs (offset, length). Hashes order in response corresponds to ranges order in request. Homomorphic hash is calculated for XORed data.

Name	Input	Output
GetRangeHash	GetRangeHashRequest	GetRangeHashResponse
