deriva-hatrac-cli¶

The deriva-hatrac-cli is a command-line utility for interacting with the DERIVA HATRAC object store.

Features¶

List, create, and delete namespaces
Get, put, and delete objects
Get, set, and delete ACLs

See deriva-hatrac-cli --help for a complete list of its features, arguments and options.

Common options¶

All operations are performed with respect to a specific host and most hosts will require authentication.

Hostname¶

If the --host HOSTNAME option is not given, localhost will be assumed.

Authentication¶

The CLI accepts an authentication token with the --token TOKEN option. If this option is not given, it will look in the user home dir where the DERIVA-Auth client would store the credentials.

Namespace operation examples¶

List¶

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org list /hatrac/
/hatrac/path1
/hatrac/path2
/hatrac/path3

Create Namespace¶

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org mkdir /hatrac/path1/foo

Delete Namespace¶

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org rmdir /hatrac/path1/foo

Hatrac does not allow reuse of namespace paths. If you create, delete, then (re)create a namespace you will get an error.

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org mkdir /hatrac/path1/foo
deriva-hatrac-cli mkdir: /hatrac/path1/foo: Namespace exists or the parent path is not a namespace

Object operation examples¶

Put an object¶

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org put bar.jpg /hatrac/path1/foo/bar.jpg
/hatrac/path1/foo/bar.jpg:LZJMSF6JQT7SFOVE2RBUZ4UEP4

The hatrac versioned path, ending in “…:LZJMSF6JQT7SFOVE2RBUZ4UEP4” is returned on success.

Get an object¶

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org get /hatrac/path1/foo/bar.jpg barcopy.jpg
2017-11-28 12:15:40,700 - INFO - File [barcopy.jpg] transfer successful. 195.99 KB transferred at 29655.20 MB/second. Elapsed time: 0:00:00.006609.
2017-11-28 12:15:40,700 - INFO - Verifying checksum for file [barcopy.jpg]

If the outfilename argument is not given it will take the basename of the object path.

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org get /hatrac/path1/foo/bar.jpg
2017-11-28 12:17:03,236 - INFO - File [bar.jpg] transfer successful. 195.99 KB transferred at 30447.60 MB/second. Elapsed time: 0:00:00.006437.
2017-11-28 12:17:03,236 - INFO - Verifying checksum for file [bar.jpg]

Alternately, the object can be streamed to stdout which you could then pipe through another utility or redirect to a file as in this example.

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org get /hatrac/path1/foo/bar.jpg - > barcopy2.jpg

Note that when streaming to stdout the CLI will not (be able to) compute and verify the retrieved object’s checksum.

Delete an object¶

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org del /hatrac/path1/foo/bar.jpg

As with namespaces, a deleted object path cannot be reused.

ACL operation examples¶

ACL operations may be performed on any hatrac “path”; i.e., on namespaces and objects.

Get ACLs¶

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org getacl /hatrac/path1/foo
subtree-update:
create:
subtree-create:
subtree-read:
owner:
  https://auth.globus.org/111111-2222-3333-4444-5555555
subtree-owner:

Set ACLs¶

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org setacl /hatrac/path1/foo subtree-read http://0000000-1111-2222-333333

More than one role may be added at a time.

Delete ACLs¶

Deleting an ACL deletes one or all roles from a specified ACL access-mode. See the output of the getacl operation for a list of all available access-modes.

$ deriva-hatrac-cli --host example.org delacl /hatrac/path1/foo subtree-read
