AppendBlobAsyncClient Class

public final class AppendBlobAsyncClient
extends BlobAsyncClientBase

Client to an append blob. It may only be instantiated through a buildAppendBlobAsyncClient() or via the method getAppendBlobAsyncClient(). This class does not hold any state about a particular blob, but is instead a convenient way of sending appropriate requests to the resource on the service.

This client contains operations on a blob. Operations on a container are available on BlobContainerAsyncClient, and operations on the service are available on BlobServiceAsyncClient.

Please refer to the Azure Docs for more information.

Note this client is an async client that returns reactive responses from Spring Reactor Core project (https://projectreactor.io/). Calling the methods in this client will NOT start the actual network operation, until .subscribe() is called on the reactive response. You can simply convert one of these responses to a CompletableFuture object through Mono#toFuture().

Method Details

appendBlock

public Mono appendBlock(Flux data, long length)

Commits a new block of data to the end of the existing append blob.

Note that the data passed must be replayable if retries are enabled (the default). In other words, the Flux must produce the same data each time it is subscribed to. For service versions 2022-11-02 and later, the max block size is 100 MB. For previous versions, the max block size is 4 MB. For more information, see the Azure Docs.

Code Samples

client.appendBlock(data, length).subscribe(response ->
     System.out.printf("AppendBlob has %d committed blocks%n", response.getBlobCommittedBlockCount()));

Parameters:

data - The data to write to the blob. Note that this Flux must be replayable if retries are enabled (the default). In other words, the Flux must produce the same data each time it is subscribed to.
length - The exact length of the data. It is important that this value match precisely the length of the data emitted by the Flux.

Returns:

Mono containing the information of the append blob operation.

appendBlockFromUrl

public Mono appendBlockFromUrl(String sourceUrl, BlobRange sourceRange)

Commits a new block of data from another blob to the end of this append blob.

Code Samples

client.appendBlockFromUrl(sourceUrl, new BlobRange(offset, count)).subscribe(response ->
     System.out.printf("AppendBlob has %d committed blocks%n", response.getBlobCommittedBlockCount()));

Parameters:

sourceUrl - The url to the blob that will be the source of the copy. A source blob in the same storage account can be authenticated via Shared Key. However, if the source is a blob in another account, the source blob must either be public or must be authenticated via a shared access signature. If the source blob is public, no authentication is required to perform the operation.
sourceRange - The source BlobRange to copy.

Returns:

Mono containing the information of the append blob operation.

appendBlockFromUrlWithResponse

public Mono> appendBlockFromUrlWithResponse(AppendBlobAppendBlockFromUrlOptions options)

Commits a new block of data from another blob to the end of this append blob.

Code Samples

AppendBlobRequestConditions appendBlobRequestConditions = new AppendBlobRequestConditions()
     .setAppendPosition(POSITION)
     .setMaxSize(maxSize);

 BlobRequestConditions modifiedRequestConditions = new BlobRequestConditions()
     .setIfUnmodifiedSince(OffsetDateTime.now().minusDays(3));

 client.appendBlockFromUrlWithResponse(new AppendBlobAppendBlockFromUrlOptions(sourceUrl)
     .setSourceRange(new BlobRange(offset, count))
     .setDestinationRequestConditions(appendBlobRequestConditions)
     .setSourceRequestConditions(modifiedRequestConditions)).subscribe(response ->
     System.out.printf("AppendBlob has %d committed blocks%n", response.getValue().getBlobCommittedBlockCount()));

Parameters:

options - Parameters for the operation.

Returns:

A Mono containing Response<T> whose value contains the append blob operation.

appendBlockFromUrlWithResponse

public Mono> appendBlockFromUrlWithResponse(String sourceUrl, BlobRange sourceRange, byte[] sourceContentMD5, AppendBlobRequestConditions destRequestConditions, BlobRequestConditions sourceRequestConditions)

Commits a new block of data from another blob to the end of this append blob.

Code Samples

AppendBlobRequestConditions appendBlobRequestConditions = new AppendBlobRequestConditions()
     .setAppendPosition(POSITION)
     .setMaxSize(maxSize);

 BlobRequestConditions modifiedRequestConditions = new BlobRequestConditions()
     .setIfUnmodifiedSince(OffsetDateTime.now().minusDays(3));

 client.appendBlockFromUrlWithResponse(sourceUrl, new BlobRange(offset, count), null,
     appendBlobRequestConditions, modifiedRequestConditions).subscribe(response ->
     System.out.printf("AppendBlob has %d committed blocks%n", response.getValue().getBlobCommittedBlockCount()));

Parameters:

sourceUrl - The url to the blob that will be the source of the copy. A source blob in the same storage account can be authenticated via Shared Key. However, if the source is a blob in another account, the source blob must either be public or must be authenticated via a shared access signature. If the source blob is public, no authentication is required to perform the operation.
sourceRange - BlobRange
sourceContentMD5 - An MD5 hash of the block content from the source blob. If specified, the service will calculate the MD5 of the received data and fail the request if it does not match the provided MD5.
destRequestConditions - AppendBlobRequestConditions
sourceRequestConditions - BlobRequestConditions

Returns:

A Mono containing Response<T> whose value contains the append blob operation.

appendBlockWithResponse

public Mono> appendBlockWithResponse(Flux data, long length, byte[] contentMd5, AppendBlobRequestConditions appendBlobRequestConditions)

Commits a new block of data to the end of the existing append blob.

Note that the data passed must be replayable if retries are enabled (the default). In other words, the Flux must produce the same data each time it is subscribed to. For service versions 2022-11-02 and later, the max block size is 100 MB. For previous versions, the max block size is 4 MB. For more information, see the Azure Docs.

Code Samples

byte[] md5 = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5").digest("data".getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
 AppendBlobRequestConditions requestConditions = new AppendBlobRequestConditions()
     .setAppendPosition(POSITION)
     .setMaxSize(maxSize);

 client.appendBlockWithResponse(data, length, md5, requestConditions).subscribe(response ->
     System.out.printf("AppendBlob has %d committed blocks%n", response.getValue().getBlobCommittedBlockCount()));

Parameters:

data - The data to write to the blob. Note that this Flux must be replayable if retries are enabled (the default). In other words, the Flux must produce the same data each time it is subscribed to.
length - The exact length of the data. It is important that this value match precisely the length of the data emitted by the Flux.
contentMd5 - An MD5 hash of the block content. This hash is used to verify the integrity of the block during transport. When this header is specified, the storage service compares the hash of the content that has arrived with this header value. Note that this MD5 hash is not stored with the blob. If the two hashes do not match, the operation will fail.
appendBlobRequestConditions - AppendBlobRequestConditions

Returns:

A Mono containing Response<T> whose value contains the append blob operation.
