Perform operations on containers and items by using the SDK

In Microsoft Azure, you can perform various operations on containers and items using the Azure SDK. The SDK provides a set of libraries and tools that enable developers to interact with Azure services programmatically. In this article, we will explore how to perform operations on containers and items using the SDK.

Create a Container

To create a container using the SDK, you need to select the appropriate SDK for your programming language. For example, if you are using .NET, you can use the Azure.Storage.Blobs library. Here’s an example in C#:

using Azure.Storage.Blobs;

public void CreateContainer(string connectionString, string containerName)
{
BlobServiceClient blobServiceClient = new BlobServiceClient(connectionString);
blobServiceClient.CreateBlobContainer(containerName);
}

Upload an Item to a Container

To upload an item to a container, you can use the Azure.Storage.Blobs library. The following example demonstrates how to upload a file to a container using C#:

using Azure.Storage.Blobs;

BlobClient blobClient = containerClient.GetBlobClient(itemName);
using FileStream fileStream = File.OpenRead(filePath);
blobClient.Upload(fileStream, true);
}

Download an Item from a Container

To download an item from a container using the SDK, you can use the Azure.Storage.Blobs library. Here’s an example in C#:

using Azure.Storage.Blobs;

BlobClient blobClient = containerClient.GetBlobClient(itemName);
using FileStream fileStream = File.OpenWrite(destinationPath);
blobClient.DownloadTo(fileStream);
}

Delete an Item from a Container

To delete an item from a container, you can use the Azure.Storage.Blobs library. The following example demonstrates how to delete an item using C#:

using Azure.Storage.Blobs;

BlobClient blobClient = containerClient.GetBlobClient(itemName);
blobClient.DeleteIfExists();
}

Delete a Container

To delete a container using the SDK, you can use the Azure.Storage.Blobs library. Here’s an example in C#:

using Azure.Storage.Blobs;

containerClient.DeleteIfExists();
}

These are just a few examples of the operations you can perform on containers and items using the Azure SDK. The Azure SDK provides a comprehensive set of APIs and libraries for working with Azure services. You can refer to the Microsoft documentation for the Azure SDK to explore more options and functionalities specific to your programming language and requirements.
