Osio is an object storage wrapper to expose a posix-like read-only interface to objects stored in a bucket. It can be used to pass an object reference to functions requiring an io.ReadSeeker or an io.ReaderAt whereas object stores only expose the equivalent of io.ReaderAt.

Osio is adapted in the case where you will only be accessing a small subset of the bytes of the remote object, for example:

• extracting a subset of files from a large tar/zip
• extracting a pixel window from a cloud optimized geotiff

Under the hood, osio splits the remote object into blocks of fixed sizes (by default 128k), and keeps an lru cache of the already downloaded blocks. Subsequent reads from the object will be populated by the contents of these cached blocks. An Osio adapter is safe for concurrent usage, and mechanisms are in place do de-duplicate reads to the source object in case of concurrent access.

Osio has support for the following handlers:

• Google Storage,
• Amazon S3,
• Plain HTTP.

Example Usage

Google Storage - Zip extraction

The following example shows how to extract a single file from a (large) zip archive stored on a Google Cloud Storage bucket.

import(
    "github.com/airbusgeo/osio"
    "github.com/airbusgeo/osio/gcs"
)
func ExampleGSHandle_zip() {
    ctx := context.Background()
    gcsr, err := gcs.Handle(ctx)
    /* handle error, typically if credentials could not be found, network down ,etc... */
    gcsa, _ = osio.NewAdapter(gcsr)

    file := "gs://bucket/path/to/large/archive.zip"
    obj, err := gcsa.Reader(file)
    if err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("open %s: %w", file, err)
    }
    zipf, err := zip.NewReader(obj, obj.Size())
    if err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("zip corrupted?: %w", err)
    }
    for _, f := range zipf.File {
        if f.Name == "mytargetfile.txt" {
            fr, err := f.Open()
            dstf, err := os.Create("/local/mytargetfile.txt")
            _, err = io.Copy(dstf, fr)
            fr.Close()
            err = dstf.Close()
            //fmt.Printf("extracted %s\n", f.Name)
        }
    }
}

Amazon S3 - Zip extraction

import(
    aws3 "github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/s3"
    "github.com/airbusgeo/osio"
    "github.com/airbusgeo/osio/s3"
)
func WithS3Region(region string) func(opts *aws3.Options) {
	return func(opts *aws3.Options) {
		opts.Region = region
	}
}

func ExampleS3Handle_zip() {
	ctx := context.Background()

	cfg, _ := config.LoadDefaultConfig(ctx)
	s3cl := aws3.NewFromConfig(cfg, WithS3Region("eu-central-1"))
	s3r, _ := s3.Handle(ctx, osio.S3Client(s3cl), osio.S3RequestPayer())
	osr, _ := osio.NewAdapter(s3r)

	uri := "s3://sentinel-s2-l1c-zips/S2A_MSIL1C_20210630T074611_N0300_R135_T48XWN_20210630T082841.zip"
	obj, _ := osr.Reader(uri)
	zipf, _ := zip.NewReader(obj, obj.Size())

	for _, f := range zipf.File {
		fmt.Printf("%s\n", f.Name)
		break
	}

	// Output:
	// S2A_MSIL1C_20210630T074611_N0300_R135_T48XWN_20210630T082841.SAFE/MTD_MSIL1C.xml
}

GDAL I/O handler

Osio is used by the GDAL godal bindings to enable GDAL to directly access files stored on a bucket. (Note: this mechanism only really makes sense when accessing file formats that are object-storage friendly, e.g. cogeotiffs )

ctx := context.Background()
gcsr, err := gcs.Handle(ctx)
gcs, _ = osio.NewAdapter(gcsr)
godal.RegisterVSIAdapter("gs://", gcs)
dataset,err := godal.Open("gs://bucket/path/to/cog.tif")
...
