How to retrieve only root level objects

[Slawomir Jasinski]

I'm using getBucket function to retrieve elements in my bucket - pretty simple :)

I can use delimiter to restrict a list of objects which im getting from bucket, but if I use / as a delimiter I'm getting only objects in the "root" of bucket. 

I'm interested with "directory like" browsing, I want to fetch objects which are files in bucket, but only in root directory, and folders from the root of the bucket - it's any chance to actually do this? I notice, that empty folders are objects with key + _$folder$ at the end... but is there is any way to recognize actually not empty folders?

Hello-

Sorry; I'm having some trouble understanding what you want to do. You mention that you _are_ able to get objects in the root of the bucket - are you trying to get objects that _aren't_ in the root of the bucket?

What you're probably looking for is the 'marker' and 'prefix' parameters for the getBucket function. Have you tried using those?

As for the $folder$ postfix, an explanation for that is here:

Lets assume that I have this objects in my bucket

books/book1.pdf

books/book2.pdf

movies/movie1.avi

movies/movie2.avi

picture1.jpg

picture2.jpg

when I'm using delimiter='/' I will get only picture1.jpg and picture2.jpg - when delimiter is empty, I'll everything.

I would like to get something like this:

books/

movies/

picture1.jpg

picture2.jpg

Hello-

Have you checked the 'commonprefixes' element?
