Virtual Folders

Virtual folders provide access to shared, persistent, and reused files across different kernel sessions.

You can mount virtual folders when creating new kernel sessions, and use them like a plain directory on the local filesystem. Of course, reads/writes to virtual folder contents may have degraded performance compared to the main scratch directory (usually /home/work in most kernels) as internally it uses a networked file system.

참고

Currently the total size of a virtual folder is limited to 1 GiB and the number of files is limited to 1,000 files during public beta, but these limits are subject to change in the future.

Listing Virtual Folders

Retruns the list of virtual folders created by the current keypair.

• URI: /v2/folders

• Method: GET

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
paging	object	Paging Query Object.

Response

HTTP Status Code	Description
200 OK	Success.

Fields	Type	Values
paging	object	Paging Info Object.
items	list[object]	A list of Virtual Folder Item Object.

Creating a virtual folder

• URI: /v2/folders/create

• Method: POST

Creates a virtual folder associated with the current API key.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
tagName	str	The human-readable name of the virtual folder.

Example:

{
  "tagName": "My Data",
}

Response

HTTP Status Code	Description
201 Created	The kernel is successfully created.
400 Bad Request	The name is malformed or duplicate with your existing virtual folders.
406 Not acceptable	You have exceeded internal limits of virtual folders. (e.g., the maximum number of folders you can have.)

Fields	Type	Values
folderId	slug	The unique folder ID used for later API calls.

Example:

{
  "folderId": "oyU2WOYRYmjCGuKoSkiJ7H2rlN4"
}

Getting Virtual Folder Information

• URI: /v2/folders/:id

• Method: GET

Retrieves information about a virtual folder. For performance reasons, the returned information may not be real-time; usually they are updated every a few seconds in the server-side.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
:id	slug	The virtual folder ID.

Response

HTTP Status Code	Description
200 OK	The information is successfully returned.
404 Not Found	There is no such folder.

Fields	Type	Values
item	object	Virtual Folder Item Object.

Deleting Virtual Folder

• URI: /v2/folders/:id

• Method: DELETE

This immediately deletes all contents of the given virtual folder and makes the folder unavailable for future mounts.

위험

If there are running kernels that have mounted the deleted virtual folder, those kernels are likely to break!

경고

There is NO way to get back the contents once this API is invoked.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
:id	The virtual folder ID.

Response

HTTP Status Code	Description
204 No Content	The folder is successfully destroyed.
404 Not Found	There is no such folder.
