Windows Azure doesn't provide the concept of heirarchical containers, but it does provide a mechanism to traverse heirarchy by convention and API. All containers are stored at the same level. You can gain simliar functionality by using naming conventions for your blob names.

For instance, you may create a container named "content" and create blobs with the following names in that container:

content/blue/images/logo.jpg
content/blue/images/icon-start.jpg
content/blue/images/icon-stop.jpg

content/red/images/logo.jpg
content/red/images/icon-start.jpg
content/red/images/icon-stop.jpg

Note that these blobs are a flat list against your "content" container. That said, using the "/" as a conventional delimiter, provides you with the functionality to traverse these in a heirarchical fashion.

protected IEnumerable<IListBlobItem> 
          GetDirectoryList(string directoryName, string subDirectoryName)
{
    CloudStorageAccount account =
        CloudStorageAccount.FromConfigurationSetting("DataConnectionString");
    CloudBlobClient client = 
        account.CreateCloudBlobClient();
    CloudBlobDirectory directory = 
        client.GetBlobDirectoryReference(directoryName); 
    CloudBlobDirectory subDirectory = 
        directory.GetSubdirectory(subDirectoryName); 

    return subDirectory.ListBlobs();
}

You can then call this as follows:

GetDirectoryList("content/blue", "images")

Note the use of GetBlobDirectoryReference and GetSubDirectory methods and the CloudBlobDirectory type instead of CloudBlobContainer. These provide the traversal functionality you are likely looking for.

This should help you get started. Let me know if this doesn't answer your question:

回答2:

Are you referring to blob storage? If so, the hierarchy is simply StorageAccount/Container/BlobName. There are no nested containers.

Having said that, you can use slashes in your blob name to simulate nested containers in the URI. See this article on MSDN for naming details.

I aggree with tobint answer and I want to add something this situation because I also I need the same way upload my games html to Azure Storage with create this directories :

Games\Beautyshop\index.html
Games\Beautyshop\assets\apple.png
Games\Beautyshop\assets\aromas.png
Games\Beautyshop\customfont.css
Games\Beautyshop\jquery.js

So After your recommends I tried to upload my content with tool which is Azure Storage Explorer and you can download tool and source code with this url : Azure Storage Explorer

First of all I tried to upload via tool but It doesn't allow to hierarchical directory upload because you don't need : How to create sub directory in a blob container

Finally, I debug Azure Storage Explorer source code and I edited Background_UploadBlobs method and UploadFileList field in StorageAccountViewModel.cs file. You can edit it what you wants.I may have made spelling errors :/ I am so sorry but That's only my recommend.

To create a sub folder in container, while uploading a file you can go to Advanced options and select upload to a folder, which will create a new folder in the container and upload the file into that.

回答5:

Sample code

string myfolder = "<folderName>";
string myfilename = "<fileName>";
string fileName = String.Format("{0}/{1}.csv", myfolder, myfilename);
CloudBlockBlob blob = container.GetBlockBlobReference(fileName);
