mc tag set

The mc tag set command sets one or more tags to a bucket or object.

AIStor supports adding up to 10 custom tags to an object.

mc tag set myminio/mydata "tag1=value1&tag2=value2"

mc [GLOBALFLAGS] tag set                   \
                 [--rewind "string"]       \
                 [--versions]              \
                 [--version-id "string"]*  \
                 ALIAS                     \
                 "TAGS"

mc tag set --version-id is mutually exclusive with all other parameters. See the reference documentation for more information.

Required

The alias for a AIStor deployment and the full path to the object on which to apply the tag (e.g. bucket and path to object). For example:

mc tag set myminio/mybucket/object.txt

Required

An ampersand-separated (&) list of key-value pairs (KEY=VALUE), where each pair represents one tag to assign to the object. For example:

mc tag set myminio/mybucket/object.txt "key1=value1&key2=value2"

Optional

When used with --recursive, causes mc tag set to not traverse child prefixes. Tags are only applied to objects at the specified path. Requires --recursive.

The following example applies the tag destination=international to objects at vacation-photos/cancun/ but not vacation-photos/cancun/ocean/ or other prefixes.

For example, the above would add the tags to the object at vacation-photos/cancun/pretty-beach.jpg but not to the object at vacation-photos/cancun/ocean/tropical-fish.jpg.

mc tag set myminio/vacation-photos/cancun "destination=international" --exclude-folders --recursive

Alias: -r

Optional

Recursively applies the tag to all objects at the path specified to ALIAS.

Optional

Directs mc tag set to operate only on the object version(s) that existed at specified point-in-time.

• To rewind to a specific date in the past, specify the date as an ISO8601-formatted timestamp. For example: --rewind "2020.03.24T10:00".
• To rewind a duration in time, specify the duration as a string in #d#hh#mm#ss format. For example: --rewind "1d2hh3mm4ss".

--rewind requires that the specified ALIAS be an S3-compatible service that supports Bucket Versioning. For AIStor deployments, use mc version to enable or disable bucket versioning.

Optional

Directs mc tag set to operate on all object versions that exist in the bucket.

--versions requires that the specified ALIAS be an S3-compatible service that supports Bucket Versioning. For AIStor deployments, use mc version to enable or disable bucket versioning.

Use --versions and --rewind together to apply the tag to all object versions which existed at a specific point in time.

Alias: --vid

Optional

Directs mc tag set to operate only on the specified object version.

--version-id requires that the specified ALIAS be an S3-compatible service that supports Bucket Versioning. For AIStor deployments, use mc version to enable or disable bucket versioning.

Mutually exclusive with the following parameters:

• --rewind
• --versions

This command supports any of the global flags.

Use mc tag set to apply tags to a bucket or object:

mc tag set ALIAS/PATH "TAGS"

• Replace ALIAS with the alias of the AIStor deployment.
• Replace PATH with the path to the bucket or object on the AIStor deployment.
• Replace TAGS with one or more ampersand-separated (&) key-value pairs for each tag and its corresponding value.

The mc commandline tool is built for compatibility with the AWS S3 API and is tested with AIStor and AWS S3 for expected functionality and behavior.

AIStor provides no guarantees for other S3-compatible services, as their S3 API implementation is unknown and therefore unsupported.

While mc commands may work as documented, any such usage is at your own risk.
