deleteServingUrl(BlobKey blobKey)

public abstract void deleteServingUrl(BlobKey blobKey)

Deletes a URL that was previously generated by getServingUrl(BlobKey).

Parameter
Name Description
blobKey BlobKey

blob key that was previously used in the call to create the serving URL.

getServingUrl(BlobKey blobKey) (deprecated)

public abstract String getServingUrl(BlobKey blobKey)

Deprecated. Replaced by #getServingUrl(ServingUrlOptions).

Obtains a URL that can serve the image stored as a blob dynamically.

This URL is served by a high-performance dynamic image serving infrastructure that is available globally. The URL returned by this method is always public, but not guessable; private URLs are not currently supported. If you wish to stop serving the URL, delete the underlying blob key. This takes up to 24 hours to take effect.

The URL format also allows dynamic resizing and crop with certain restrictions. To get dynamic resizing and cropping simply append options to the end of the url obtained via this call. Here is an example: getServingUrl -> "http://lh3.ggpht.com/SomeCharactersGoesHere"

To get a 32 pixel sized version (aspect-ratio preserved) simply append "=s32" to the url: "http://lh3.ggpht.com/SomeCharactersGoesHere=s32"

To get a 32 pixel cropped version simply append "=s32-c": "http://lh3.ggpht.com/SomeCharactersGoesHere=s32-c"

Valid sizes are any integer in the range [0, 1600] and is available as SERVING_SIZES_LIMIT.

Parameter
Name Description
blobKey BlobKey

blob key of the image to serve by the returned URL.
Returns
Type Description
String

a URL that can serve the image dynamically.
