Temporary URLs ============== Temporary URLs allow you to create time-limited Internet addresses that allow you to grant access to your Cloud Files account. Using Temporary URL, you may allow others to retrieve or place objects in your containers - regardless of whether they're CDN-enabled. Set "temporary URL" metadata key -------------------------------- You must set this "secret" value on your account, where it can be used in a global state: .. code-block:: php $account = $service->getAccount(); $account->setTempUrlSecret('my_secret'); echo $account->getTempUrlSecret(); The string argument of ``setTempUrlSecret()`` is optional - if left out, the SDK will generate a random hashed secret for you. Get the executable PHP script for this example: * `Specify a URL secret `_ * `Generate random URL secret `_ Create a temporary URL ---------------------- Once you've set an account secret, you can create a temporary URL for your object. To allow GET access to your object for 1 minute: .. code-block:: php $object->getTemporaryUrl(60, 'GET'); To allow PUT access for 1 hour: .. code-block:: php $object->getTemporaryUrl(360, 'PUT'); `Get the executable PHP script for this example `_ Hosting HTML sites on CDN ========================= .. include:: rs-only.rst To host a static (i.e. HTML) website on Cloud Files, you must follow these steps: 1. CDN-enable a container: .. code-block:: php $container = $service->getContainer('html_site'); $container->enableCdn(); 2. Upload all HTML content. You can use nested directory structures. .. code-block:: php $container->uploadObjects(array( array('name' => 'index.html', 'path' => 'index.html'), array('name' => 'contact.html', 'path' => 'contact.html'), array('name' => 'error.html', 'path' => 'error.html'), array('name' => 'styles.css', 'path' => 'styles.css'), array('name' => 'main.js', 'path' => 'main.js'), )); 3. Tell Cloud Files what to use for your default index page like this: .. code-block:: php $container->setStaticIndexPage('index.html'); 4. (Optional) Tell Cloud Files which error page to use by default: .. code-block:: php $container->setStaticErrorPage('error.html'); Bear in mind that steps 3 & 4 do not upload content, but rather specify a reference to an existing page/CloudFiles object.
