Rackspace Cloudfiles PHP API Cookbook

I'm working on the latest API of the Rackspace Cloudfiles API (php-opencloud). I've had a bear of a time figuring everything out. I think I was making it too complicated (plus I was starting on an older version of the PHP SDK... but that's another story). Now that I'm figuring out the API, the Rackspace PHP developers have done a really good job of making the functionality work with minimal coding.
Basic Rackspace Cloudfiles Container Operations
Get a reference to a Container
- $Container = $service->getContainer($containerName);
Get metadata (from initial container instantiation; can refresh metadata using retrieveMetadata())
- $metadata = $Container->getMetadata();
- $origin = $metadata->getProperty('Access-Control-Allow-Origin');
Save a meta value (or update the value if it already exists)
Note: you don't have to specify X-Container-Meta-, the system automatically does this for you (using stockHeaders())
- $Container->saveMetadata($meta);
Remove a meta value (or unset a meta value) on a container
- $Container->unsetMetadataItem('any-meta-key-value');
Refresh container meta data (Retrieve a fresh copy of metadata from API)
- $metadata = $Container->retrieveMetadata();
- $value = $metadata->getProperty('any-meta-key-value');
NOTE: don't use appendMetadata() function. This doesn't do anything but update the local metadata store (from what I can tell)
