Feature #8556

Updated by Tom Clegg about 8 years ago

h2. Implementation 

 # Trash &rarr; set @<ExpiresAt>123</ExpiresAt>@ *and* create a marker (just an empty blob) named @trash/000000000123/hash@ 
 # Untrash &rarr; unset @ExpiresAt@ *and* delete trash/000000000123/hash 
 # EmptyTrash &rarr; index @trash/*@ in order until the timestamps start being in the future. For each trash marker, get the modtime and ExpiresAt for the hash; if the data is still old and ExpiresAt is still set, delete it (otherwise do nothing); delete the trash marker in any case. 

 h2. Future work (defer) 

 When doing a full index (prefix=""), build two trash lists: a list of blocks whose metadata indicates that they are trash, and a list of trash markers. After sending the index response and closing the connection, delete any trash markers whose block metadata indicates that they are not trash.
