# @aws-sdk/client-glacier
## Description
AWS SDK for JavaScript Glacier Client for Node.js, Browser and React Native.
Amazon S3 Glacier (Glacier) is a storage solution for "cold data."
Glacier is an extremely low-cost storage service that provides secure,
durable, and easy-to-use storage for data backup and archival. With Glacier,
customers can store their data cost effectively for months, years, or decades.
Glacier also enables customers to offload the administrative burdens of operating and
scaling storage to AWS, so they don't have to worry about capacity planning, hardware
provisioning, data replication, hardware failure and recovery, or time-consuming hardware
migrations.
Glacier is a great storage choice when low storage cost is paramount and your
data is rarely retrieved. If your
application requires fast or frequent access to your data, consider using Amazon S3. For
more information, see Amazon Simple Storage Service
(Amazon S3).
You can store any kind of data in any format. There is no maximum limit on the total
amount of data you can store in Glacier.
If you are a first-time user of Glacier, we recommend that you begin by
reading the following sections in the Amazon S3 Glacier Developer
Guide:
-
What is
Amazon S3 Glacier - This section of the Developer Guide describes the
underlying data model, the operations it supports, and the AWS SDKs that you can use
to interact with the service.
-
Getting Started
with Amazon S3 Glacier - The Getting Started section walks you through the
process of creating a vault, uploading archives, creating jobs to download archives,
retrieving the job output, and deleting archives.
## Installing
To install the this package, simply type add or install @aws-sdk/client-glacier
using your favorite package manager:
- `npm install @aws-sdk/client-glacier`
- `yarn add @aws-sdk/client-glacier`
- `pnpm add @aws-sdk/client-glacier`
## Getting Started
### Import
The AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands.
To send a request, you only need to import the `GlacierClient` and
the commands you need, for example `AbortMultipartUploadCommand`:
```js
// ES5 example
const { GlacierClient, AbortMultipartUploadCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-glacier");
```
```ts
// ES6+ example
import { GlacierClient, AbortMultipartUploadCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-glacier";
```
### Usage
To send a request, you:
- Initiate client with configuration (e.g. credentials, region).
- Initiate command with input parameters.
- Call `send` operation on client with command object as input.
- If you are using a custom http handler, you may call `destroy()` to close open connections.
```js
// a client can be shared by different commands.
const client = new GlacierClient({ region: "REGION" });
const params = {
/** input parameters */
};
const command = new AbortMultipartUploadCommand(params);
```
#### Async/await
We recommend using [await](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/await)
operator to wait for the promise returned by send operation as follows:
```js
// async/await.
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
// error handling.
} finally {
// finally.
}
```
Async-await is clean, concise, intuitive, easy to debug and has better error handling
as compared to using Promise chains or callbacks.
#### Promises
You can also use [Promise chaining](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Using_promises#chaining)
to execute send operation.
```js
client.send(command).then(
(data) => {
// process data.
},
(error) => {
// error handling.
}
);
```
Promises can also be called using `.catch()` and `.finally()` as follows:
```js
client
.send(command)
.then((data) => {
// process data.
})
.catch((error) => {
// error handling.
})
.finally(() => {
// finally.
});
```
#### Callbacks
We do not recommend using callbacks because of [callback hell](http://callbackhell.com/),
but they are supported by the send operation.
```js
// callbacks.
client.send(command, (err, data) => {
// process err and data.
});
```
#### v2 compatible style
The client can also send requests using v2 compatible style.
However, it results in a bigger bundle size and may be dropped in next major version. More details in the blog post
on [modular packages in AWS SDK for JavaScript](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/modular-packages-in-aws-sdk-for-javascript/)
```ts
import * as AWS from "@aws-sdk/client-glacier";
const client = new AWS.Glacier({ region: "REGION" });
// async/await.
try {
const data = await client.abortMultipartUpload(params);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
// error handling.
}
// Promises.
client
.abortMultipartUpload(params)
.then((data) => {
// process data.
})
.catch((error) => {
// error handling.
});
// callbacks.
client.abortMultipartUpload(params, (err, data) => {
// process err and data.
});
```
### Troubleshooting
When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information,
as well as response metadata (e.g. request id).
```js
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
const { requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId } = error.$$metadata;
console.log({ requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId });
/**
* The keys within exceptions are also parsed.
* You can access them by specifying exception names:
* if (error.name === 'SomeServiceException') {
* const value = error.specialKeyInException;
* }
*/
}
```
