#Storage This document explains how to get started using Azure Storage Service with Fog. With this gem you can create/update/list/delete storage accounts. ## Usage First of all, you need to require the Fog library by executing: ```ruby require 'fog/azurerm' ``` ## Create Connection Next, create a connection to the Storage Service: ```ruby azure_storage_service = Fog::Storage.new( :provider => 'AzureRM', :tenant_id => '', # Tenant id of Azure Active Directory Application :client_id => '', # Client id of Azure Active Directory Application :client_secret => '', # Client Secret of Azure Active Directory Application :subscription_id => '' # Subscription id of an Azure Account :azure_storage_account_name => '' # Name of an Azure Storage Account :azure_storage_access_key => '' # Key of an Azure Storage Account :azure_storage_connection_string => '' # Connection String of an Azure Storage Account ) ``` If you only want to manage the storage accounts, you can create the connection without the storage account information: ```ruby azure_storage_service = Fog::Storage.new( :provider => 'AzureRM', :tenant_id => '', # Tenant id of Azure Active Directory Application :client_id => '', # Client id of Azure Active Directory Application :client_secret => '', # Client Secret of Azure Active Directory Application :subscription_id => '' # Subscription id of an Azure Account ) ``` If you only want to manage the storage data, you can create the connection without the Azure subscription information: ```ruby azure_storage_service = Fog::Storage.new( :provider => 'AzureRM', :azure_storage_account_name => '' # Name of an Azure Storage Account :azure_storage_access_key => '' # Key of an Azure Storage Account :azure_storage_connection_string => '' # Connection String of an Azure Storage Account (optional) ) ``` ## Check Name Availability Check Storage Account Name Availability.This operation checks that account name is valid and is not already in use. ```ruby azure_storage_service.storage_accounts.check_name_availability('') ``` ## Create Storage Account Create a new storage account. Replication attribute for Standard and Premium account types are as follows Standard: LRS (Standard Locally-redundant storage) ZRS (Standard Zone-redundant storage) GRS (Standard Geo-redundant storage) RAGRS (Standard Read access geo-redundant storage) Premium: LRS (Premium Locally-redundant storage) ```ruby azure_storage_service.storage_accounts.create( :name => '', :location => 'West US', :resource_group => '', :account_type => '' # Optional. Default value 'Standard'. Allowed values can only be Standard or Premium :replication => 'LRS', # Optional. Default value 'LRS' :encryption => true # Optional. If you want to enable encryption. Default value is 'false' ) ``` Premium Storage account store data on solid state drives (SSDs). For more details on standard and premium storage accounts, see [Introduction to Microsoft Azure Storage](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-introduction/) and [Premium Storage: High-Performance Storage for Azure Virtual Machine Workloads](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-premium-storage/). ## List storage accounts ##### List storage accounts in a subscription ```ruby azure_storage_service.storage_accounts.each do |storage_acc| puts "#{storage_acc.name}" puts "#{storage_acc.location}" end ``` ##### List storage accounts in a resource group ```ruby storage_accounts = azure_storage_service.storage_accounts(resource_group: '') storage_accounts.each do |storage_acc| puts "#{storage_acc.name}" puts "#{storage_acc.location}" end ``` ## Retrieve a single Storage Account Get a single record of Storage Account ```ruby storage_acc = azure_storage_service .storage_accounts .get('', '') puts "#{storage_acc.name}" ``` ## Enable encryption on Storage Account Get a single record of Storage Account and enable encryption on that Storage Account ```ruby storage_acc = azure_storage_service .storage_accounts .get('', '') storage_acc.update(encryption: true) ``` ## Get Access Keys Get access keys of a storage account ```ruby keys_hash = storage_acc.get_access_keys keys_hash.each do |keys| puts "#{keys.key_name}: #{keys.value}" end ``` ## Destroy a single Storage Account Get storage account object from the get method and then destroy that storage account. ```ruby storage_acc.destroy ``` ## Create a Disk Create a Disk in storage account. ```ruby azure_storage_service.create_disk('', options = {}) ``` ## Delete a Disk Delete a Disk from a storage account. Disk must be in unlocked state i.e detached from server(virtual machine) to successfully perform this action. ```ruby azure_storage_service.delete_disk('') ``` ## Create a storage container Create a storage container in the current storage account. ```ruby container = azure_storage_service.create_container( name: '' ) puts "#{container.name}" ``` ## List storage containers List all the storage containers in the current storage accounts. ```ruby azure_storage_service.directories.each do |directory| puts "#{directory.name}" end ``` ## Get the access control list of the storage container Get the permissions for the specified container. The permissions indicate whether container data may be accessed publicly. ```ruby directory = azure_storage_service.directories.get('') access_control_list = directory.get_access_control_list('') puts "#{access_control_list.inspect}" ``` ## Delete the storage container Mark the specified container for deletion. The container and any blobs contained within it are later deleted during garbage collection. ```ruby directory = azure_storage_service.directories.get('') result = directory.destroy puts "#{result}" ``` ## Upload a local file as a blob ```ruby new_cloud_file = azure_storage_service.files.get('', '').create(file_path: '') puts "#{new_cloud_file.inspect}" ``` ## Copy Blob from one container to another ```ruby puts storage_data.copy_blob('', '', '', '') ``` ## Download a blob to a local file ```ruby blob = azure_storage_service.files.get('', '').save_to_file('') puts "#{blob.inspect}" puts "File Size: #{::File.size }" ``` ## Delete the storage blob Mark the specified blob for deletion. The blob is later deleted during garbage collection. ```ruby cloud_file = azure_storage_service.files.get('', '') result = cloud_file.destroy puts "#{result}" ``` Note that in order to delete a blob, you must delete all of its snapshots. ```ruby cloud_file = azure_storage_service.files.get('', '') result = cloud_file.destroy(delete_snapshots: 'only') puts "#{result}" result = cloud_file.destroy puts "#{result}" ``` You can delete both at the same time by specifying the option. ```ruby cloud_file = azure_storage_service.files.get('', '') result = cloud_file.destroy(delete_snapshots: 'inlcude') puts "#{result}" ``` ## Properties ### Get storage container properties Get the storage container properties. The properties will not fetch the access control list. Call `get_container_access_control_list` to fetch it. ```ruby directory = azure_storage_service.directories.get('') properties = directory.get_properties puts "#{properties.inspect}" ``` ### Get storage blob properties Get the storage blob properties. ```ruby cloud_file = azure_storage_service.files.get('', '') properties = cloud_file.get_properties puts "#{properties.inspect}" ``` ### Set storage blob properties Set the storage blob properties. The properties are passed in name/value pairs. ```ruby cloud_file = azure_storage_service.files.get('', '') properties = { "content_language" => "English", "content_disposition" => "attachment" } cloud_file.set_properties(properties) ``` ## Metadata Metadata allows us to provide descriptive information about specific containers or blobs. This is simply providing name/value pairs of data we want to set on the container or blob. ### Get Blob Metadata ```ruby azure_storage_service.files.get('', '').get_metadata ``` ### Set Blob Metadata ```ruby metadata = { "Category" => "Images", "Resolution" => "High" } azure_storage_service.files.get('', '').set_metadata(metadata) ``` ### Get Container Metadata ```ruby azure_storage_service.directories.get_metadata('') ``` ### Set Container Metadata ```ruby metadata = { "CreatedBy" => "User", "SourceMachine" => "Mymachine", "category" => "guidance", "docType" => "textDocuments" } azure_storage_service.directories.set_metadata('', metadata) ``` ### Create Recovery Vault Create a new Recovery Vault object ```ruby azure_storage_service.recovery_vaults.create( name: '', location: '', resource_group: '' ``` ### Get Recovery Vault Retrieves a Recovery Vault object ```ruby recovery_vault = azure_storage_service.recovery_vaults.get( 'Vault Name', 'Vault Resource Group' ) ``` ### List Recovery Vaults List the Recovery Vaults in a resource group ```ruby azure_storage_service.recovery_vaults('Resource Group Name').each do |recovery_vault| puts recovery_vault.inspect end ``` ### Enable Backup Protection Enables backup protection for a virtual machine in the recovery vault. Backup protection for a virtual machine must be enabled before running backup. ```ruby recovery_vault.enable_backup_protection('Virtual Machine Name', 'Virtual Machine Resource Group') ``` ### Disable Backup Protection Disables backup protection for a virtual machine in the recovery vault. ```ruby recovery_vault.disable_backup_protection('Virtual Machine Name', 'Virtual Machine Resource Group') ``` ### Start Backup Starts the backup process for a given virtual machine ```ruby recovery_vault.start_backup('Virtual Machine Name', 'Virtual Machine Resource Group') ``` ### Destroy Recovery Vault Destroys the Recovery Vault ```ruby recovery_vault.destroy ``` Note that a Recovery Vault must not contain any backup protectable items or tasks running in order for you to delete it. If any item is present, it must be deleted from the portal first before running this command. ## Support and Feedback Your feedback is appreciated!
