## 6. Heal operations

<a name="Heal"></a>
### Heal(bucket, prefix string, healOpts HealOpts, clientToken string, forceStart bool) (start HealStartSuccess, status HealTaskStatus, err error)

Start a heal sequence that scans data under given (possible empty)
`bucket` and `prefix`. The `recursive` bool turns on recursive
traversal under the given path. `dryRun` does not mutate on-disk data,
but performs data validation.

Two heal sequences on overlapping paths may not be initiated.

The progress of a heal should be followed using the same API `Heal`
by providing the `clientToken` previously obtained from a `Heal`
API. The server accumulates results of the heal traversal and waits
for the client to receive and acknowledge them using the status
request by providing `clientToken`.

__Example__

``` go

    opts := madmin.HealOpts{
            Recursive: true,
            DryRun:    false,
    }
    forceStart := false
    healPath, err := madmClnt.Heal("", "", opts, "", forceStart)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalln(err)
    }
    log.Printf("Heal sequence started at %s", healPath)

```

#### HealStartSuccess structure

| Param | Type | Description |
|----|--------|--------|
| s.ClientToken | _string_ | A unique token for a successfully started heal operation, this token is used to request realtime progress of the heal operation. |
| s.ClientAddress | _string_ | Address of the client which initiated the heal operation, the client address has the form "host:port".|
| s.StartTime | _time.Time_ | Time when heal was initially started.|

#### HealTaskStatus structure

| Param | Type | Description |
|----|--------|--------|
| s.Summary | _string_ | Short status of heal sequence |
| s.FailureDetail | _string_ | Error message in case of heal sequence failure |
| s.HealSettings | _HealOpts_ | Contains the booleans set in the `HealStart` call |
| s.Items | _[]HealResultItem_ | Heal records for actions performed by server |

#### HealResultItem structure

| Param | Type | Description |
|------|-------|---------|
| ResultIndex | _int64_ | Index of the heal-result record |
| Type | _HealItemType_ | Represents kind of heal operation in the heal record |
| Bucket | _string_ | Bucket name |
| Object | _string_ | Object name |
| Detail | _string_ | Details about heal operation |
| DiskInfo.AvailableOn | _[]int_ | List of disks on which the healed entity is present and healthy |
| DiskInfo.HealedOn | _[]int_ | List of disks on which the healed entity was restored |

## 7. Config operations

<a name="GetConfig"></a>
### GetConfig() ([]byte, error)
Get config.json of a minio setup.

__Example__

``` go
    configBytes, err := madmClnt.GetConfig()
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("failed due to: %v", err)
    }

    // Pretty-print config received as json.
    var buf bytes.Buffer
    err = json.Indent(buf, configBytes, "", "\t")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("failed due to: %v", err)
    }

    log.Println("config received successfully: ", string(buf.Bytes()))
```


<a name="SetConfig"></a>
### SetConfig(config io.Reader) (SetConfigResult, error)
Set config.json of a minio setup and restart setup for configuration
change to take effect.


| Param  | Type  | Description  |
|---|---|---|
|`st.Status`            | _bool_  | true if set-config succeeded, false otherwise. |
|`st.NodeSummary.Name`  | _string_  | Network address of the node. |
|`st.NodeSummary.ErrSet`   | _bool_ | Bool representation indicating if an error is encountered with the node.|
|`st.NodeSummary.ErrMsg`   | _string_ | String representation of the error (if any) on the node.|


__Example__

``` go
    config := bytes.NewReader([]byte(`config.json contents go here`))
    result, err := madmClnt.SetConfig(config)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("failed due to: %v", err)
    }

    var buf bytes.Buffer
    enc := json.NewEncoder(&buf)
    enc.SetEscapeHTML(false)
    enc.SetIndent("", "\t")
    err = enc.Encode(result)

    }
    log.Println("SetConfig: ", string(buf.Bytes()))
```

<a name="SetCredentials"></a>
### SetCredentials() error

    if err != nil {
            log.Fatalln(err)
    }
    log.Println("New credentials successfully set.")

```
