Starting an instance of erlazure

Start an instance of erlazure by calling erlazure:start/2 where Account is Storage account name and Key is Storage account key.

{ok, Pid} = erlazure:start(Account, Key)

Account and Key are strings.

Using an emulated service like Azurite

%% default dev credentials from Azurite
Account = "devstoreaccount1".
Key = "Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw==".
%% Mind the trailing slash at the end of the endpoint.
{ok, Pid} = erlazure:start(#{account => Account, key => Key, endpoint => "http://127.0.0.1:10000/"})

Calling Azure services

Almost each azure services request has three corresponding functions in erlazure module, the first has minimal set of parameters, the second has additionaly list of Options and the third has additionaly Timeout parameter.

Options as the name states is list of options supported by this azure services request, each options is tuple {OptionName, OptionValue} where OptionName is atom and OptionValue can be of any type, option is passed either as a header or as a query string parameter.

Timeout is number of milliseconds to wait for a reply from erlazure, infinity value is not supported. Note, that this is gen_server call timeout and isn't http request timeout (it's set to infinity by default) or azure service request timeout (you can specify it by sending option {timeout, _Timeout}). By default timeout is set to 30 seconds.

For a list of supported options for each azure service request please consult msdn documentation.

Examples

Upload block blob

{ok, Pid} = erlazure:start("storage", "2o4b4tHpoWifLU+BlyzsIG1VtlO9LgBRFyl1qLw/+w9/ZszSxKGIK8JYac/UEJp5r8HKgiOiG8YTqGS9otAYWA=="),
{ok, Binary} = file:read("/path/to/some/small/file"),
{ok, created} = erlazure:put_block_blob(Pid, "uploads", "test_upload.file", Binary).

Upload block blob with timeout set

Uploads block blob and waits no longer than 15 seconds for erlazure to finish the upload

{ok, Pid} = erlazure:start("storage", "2o4b4tHpoWifLU+BlyzsIG1VtlO9LgBRFyl1qLw/+w9/ZszSxKGIK8JYac/UEJp5r8HKgiOiG8YTqGS9otAYWA=="),
{ok, Binary} = file:read("/path/to/some/other/file"),
{ok, created} = erlazure:put_block_blob(Pid, "uploads", "test_upload2.file", Binary, [], 15000).

Get 20 messages from a queue

Retrieves max 20 messages from a queue

{ok, Pid} = erlazure:start("storage", "2o4b4tHpoWifLU+BlyzsIG1VtlO9LgBRFyl1qLw/+w9/ZszSxKGIK8JYac/UEJp5r8HKgiOiG8YTqGS9otAYWA=="),
{ok, Messages} = erlazure:get_messages(Pid, "test_queue", [{num_of_messages, 20}]).
