At the cluster setting level, a user must enable lifecycle policies. As it is enabled in the cluster, so use the management API:
curl -X PUT --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Accept: text/plain' -d '{}'
'http://lucky1.tx.caringo.com:91/api/storage/clusters/_self/settings/policy.lifecycle?value=enabled' -u admin:ourpwdofchoicehere |
A missing |
A bucket may have one or multiple lifecycle policies, such as:
Expire all versioned content after one year
Expire all current content after 5 years, etc.
Such policies are applied on a bucket object using one or multiple Policy-Lifecycle headers:
curl –X COPY –-post301 –-location-trusted –H 'Policy-Lifecycle: RuleId:"rule5" ExpirationDays:1825 ObsoleteExpirationDays:365' 'http://lucky1.tx.caringo.com/mybucket?domain=mydomain&preserve' |
In the previous example, implicitly applying to all content in the bucket by;
Naming the single policy
Not declaring it enabled (as it is by default)
Relying on a missing prefix
The preserve query argument on the COPY operations indicates leaving other persisted headers as it is.
See S3 lifecycle policy examples. Note that Swarm currently only supports expiration policies.
