2017/11/27 - AWS Elemental MediaStore - 7 new api methods

Changes  AWS Elemental MediaStore is an AWS storage service optimized for media. It gives you the performance, consistency, and low latency required to deliver live and on-demand video content. AWS Elemental MediaStore acts as the origin store in your video workflow.

DescribeContainer (new) Link ¶

Retrieves the properties of the requested container. This returns a single Container object based on ContainerName . To return all Container objects that are associated with a specified AWS account, use ListContainers.

client.describe_container(
    ContainerName='string'
)
type ContainerName

string

param ContainerName

The name of the container to query.

rtype

PutContainerPolicy (new) Link ¶

Creates an access policy for the specified container to restrict the users and clients that can access it. For information about the data that is included in an access policy, see the AWS Identity and Access Management User Guide.

For this release of the REST API, you can create only one policy for a container. If you enter PutContainerPolicy twice, the second command modifies the existing policy.

See also: AWS API Documentation

    Policy='string'
)
type ContainerName

string

param ContainerName

[REQUIRED]

The name of the container.

  • One Version tag

  • One Statement tag that contains the standard tags for the policy.

dict

returns

Response Syntax

{}

DeleteContainer (new) Link ¶

Deletes the specified container. Before you make a DeleteContainer request, delete any objects in the container or in any folders in the container. You can delete only empty containers.

See also: AWS API Documentation

    ContainerName='string'
)
type ContainerName

)
type ContainerName

string

param ContainerName

[REQUIRED]

The name for the container. The name must be from 1 to 255 characters. Container names must be unique to your AWS account within a specific region. As an example, you could create a container named movies in every region, as long as you don’t have an existing container with that name.

ListContainers (new) Link ¶

Lists the properties of all containers in AWS Elemental MediaStore.

You can query to receive all the containers in one response. Or you can include the MaxResults parameter to receive a limited number of containers in each response. In this case, the response includes a token. To get the next set of containers, send the command again, this time with the NextToken parameter (with the returned token as its value). The next set of responses appears, with a token if there are still more containers to receive.

See also DescribeContainer, which gets the properties of one container.

See also: AWS API Documentation

Request Syntax

client.list_containers(
    NextToken='string',
    MaxResults=123
)
type NextToken

string

param NextToken

Only if you used MaxResults in the first command, enter the token (which was included in the previous response) to obtain the next set of containers. This token is included in a response only if there actually are more containers to list.

type MaxResults

integer

param MaxResults

Enter the maximum number of containers in the response. Use from 1 to 255 characters.

rtype

dict

returns

Response Syntax

{
    'Containers': [
        {
