Uploading files to BunnyCDN Storage Zone with PHP API Class

The BunnyCDN PHP API class can do many tasks without having to log into BunnyCDN and use the browser GUI.

In this post I go through creating a Storage Zone, connecting to it then creating directories and uploading images into it.

The only requirements being that you have the class and your BunnyCDN account API key.

Start by creating a file that will run your code in the same directory as bunnyAPI.php. Add your API key.

<?php
require_once('bunnyAPI.php');
$bunny = new BunnyAPI();
$bunny->apiKey('MY-API-KEY-HERE');

Create a new Storage zone with:

echo $bunny->addStorageZone('imageBackups');

If the name isn’t in use this returns:

{
  "Id": 24289,
  "UserId": "OMITTED",
  "Name": "imagebackups",
  "Password": "OMITTED",
  "DateModified": "2019-11-26T04:16:56.1991174Z",
  "Deleted": false,
  "StorageUsed": 0,
  "FilesStored": 0,
  "Region": "DE",
  "ReplicationRegions": null,
  "PullZones": null,
  "ReadOnlyPassword": "OMITTED"
}

Grab the Password because that will be used to create a connection with the Storage zone next. You can always review all this data with:

echo $bunny->listStorageZones();

Create the Storage zone connection with the name and password from the returned data above:

$bunny->zoneConnect('imagebackups', 'THEPASSWORD');

The above zoneConnect() is needed to be set before all of the following examples!

Creating folder

Let’s create a folder in the Storage zone imageBackups

echo $bunny->createFolder('Drone');

View what exists in imageBackups

$bunny->jsonHeader();
echo $bunny->listAll();

returns:

{
  "storage_name": "imagebackups",
  "current_dir": "",
  "data": [
    {
      "name": "Drone",
      "file_type": null,
      "size": null,
      "is_dir": true,
      "created": "2019-11-26 04:30:20",
      "last_changed": "2019-11-26 04:30:20",
      "guid": "906cde44-aaa5-464d-8d92-3a019c1a2854"
    }
  ]
}

As you can see our newly created Drone folder exists.

I want to make another folder inside of Drone/:

$bunny->createFolder('Drone/theLake');

Output the contents of the Drone folder:

$bunny->jsonHeader();
echo $bunny->listAll('/Drone');
{
  "storage_name": "imagebackups",
  "current_dir": "/Drone",
  "data": [{
    "name": "theLake",
    "file_type": null,
    "size": null,
    "is_dir": true,
    "created": "2019-11-26 04:32:49",
    "last_changed": "2019-11-26 04:32:49",
    "guid": "d99fd6a8-f60b-4dbb-a0c2-4a78cb24df1c"
  }]
}

Success! Now to upload files into /Drone/theLake

Upload files

In my current working directory I have created a folder called uploads and in it sits tullaroop-reservoir-drone-13.jpg (The drone image).

Uploading this file is done with:

$bunny->uploadFile('upload/tullaroop-reservoir-drone-13.jpg', 'Drone/theLake/adroneimage.jpg');
$bunny->jsonHeader();
echo $bunny->listAll('/Drone/theLake');
{
  "storage_name": "imagebackups",
  "current_dir": "/Drone/theLake",
  "data": [
    {
      "name": "adroneimage.jpg",
      "file_type": "jpg",
      "size": 876.76171875,
      "is_dir": false,
      "created": "2019-11-26 04:43:51",
      "last_changed": "2019-11-26 04:43:51",
      "guid": "a8d8a1f0-5915-4cf2-b538-a305fe4d440e"
    }
  ]
}

From the returned data you can see the image is 876KB.

Another feature is uploading all the files in a folder. I added tullaroop-reservoir-drone-15.jpg and tullaroop-reservoir-drone-15.jpg to uploads and ran

$bunny->uploadAllFiles('upload/', 'Drone/theLake/');

Which uploads all the files in upload/ to Drone/theLake/ whilst keeping their original names

$bunny->jsonHeader();
echo $bunny->listAll('/Drone/theLake');
{
  "storage_name": "imagebackups",
  "current_dir": "/Drone/theLake",
  "data": [
    {
      "name": "adroneimage.jpg",
      "file_type": "jpg",
      "size": 876.76171875,
      "is_dir": false,
      "created": "2019-11-26 04:43:51",
      "last_changed": "2019-11-26 04:43:51",
      "guid": "a8d8a1f0-5915-4cf2-b538-a305fe4d440e"
    },
    {
      "name": "tullaroop-reservoir-drone-15.jpg",
      "file_type": "jpg",
      "size": 984.2802734375,
      "is_dir": false,
      "created": "2019-11-26 04:53:38",
      "last_changed": "2019-11-26 04:53:38",
      "guid": "c559636e-7d14-4ff5-97a7-e9cc6247e5cd"
    },
    {
      "name": "tullaroop-reservoir-drone-16.jpg",
      "file_type": "jpg",
      "size": 1118.3857421875,
      "is_dir": false,
      "created": "2019-11-26 04:53:49",
      "last_changed": "2019-11-26 04:53:49",
      "guid": "981b68b3-4b53-4717-aa3a-78b714cf2481"
    }
  ]
}

This post showcases just a small fraction of what the class can do.
