# API Hints & Quick How-Tos
|
|
|
|
Below you'll find some brief sections that show how some of the API calls
|
|
in go-ceph work together. This is not meant to cover every possible use
|
|
case but are recorded here as a quick way to get familiar with these
|
|
calls.
|
|
|
|
## rados Package
|
|
|
|
### Connecting to a cluster
|
|
|
|
Connect to a Ceph cluster using a configuration file located in the default
|
|
search paths.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
conn, _ := rados.NewConn()
|
|
conn.ReadDefaultConfigFile()
|
|
conn.Connect()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A connection can be shutdown by calling the `Shutdown` method on the
|
|
connection object (e.g. `conn.Shutdown()`). There are also other methods for
|
|
configuring the connection. Specific configuration options can be set:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
conn.SetConfigOption("log_file", "/dev/null")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and command line options can also be used using the `ParseCmdLineArgs` method.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
args := []string{ "--mon-host", "1.1.1.1" }
|
|
err := conn.ParseCmdLineArgs(args)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For other configuration options see the full documentation.
|
|
|
|
### Object I/O
|
|
|
|
Object in RADOS can be written to and read from with through an interface very
|
|
similar to a standard file I/O interface:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// open a pool handle
|
|
ioctx, err := conn.OpenIOContext("mypool")
|
|
|
|
// write some data
|
|
bytesIn := []byte("input data")
|
|
err = ioctx.Write("obj", bytesIn, 0)
|
|
|
|
// read the data back out
|
|
bytesOut := make([]byte, len(bytesIn))
|
|
_, err := ioctx.Read("obj", bytesOut, 0)
|
|
|
|
if !bytes.Equal(bytesIn, bytesOut) {
|
|
fmt.Println("Output is not input!")
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Pool maintenance
|
|
|
|
The list of pools in a cluster can be retreived using the `ListPools` method
|
|
on the connection object. On a new cluster the following code snippet:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
pools, _ := conn.ListPools()
|
|
fmt.Println(pools)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
will produce the output `[data metadata rbd]`, along with any other pools that
|
|
might exist in your cluster. Pools can also be created and destroyed. The
|
|
following creates a new, empty pool with default settings.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
conn.MakePool("new_pool")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Deleting a pool is also easy. Call `DeletePool(name string)` on a connection object to
|
|
delete a pool with the given name. The following will delete the pool named
|
|
`new_pool` and remove all of the pool's data.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
conn.DeletePool("new_pool")
|
|
```
