@User 👀 Object Lifecycles are here

YES!!

@denchi you were asking about this yesterday

Oooh heck that's awesome! Thanks for the ping.

Is there a way to do this directly from the dashboard?

Don't think so currently

Is this a per bucket rule or per object rule ? Like delete objects from trash after x days

Policies cover object key prefixes

like

assets/

or something

That's perfect. Haven't used the S3 API before but I'll definitely look into that.

The

.putBucketLifecycleConfiguration({

doesn't seem to specify a bucket name. Is that intentional?

So I could create a prefix trash/ and set this rule ?

yep

It should according to the AWS docs () Try adding a

Bucket: 'name',

before

Rules:

Ooh, ok. Yeah, it's in the other examples too.

If you can validate it works for put, feel free to PR the docs (Theres an "Edit on GitHub" button at the bottom of the page)

Does this create some daily requests or something ?

To check the time ?

Not that I'm aware of

Hi there! I wanted to share an update I made to the R2 docs yesterday. You'll notice that the nav changed to have different top level item names, which should make it a little easier to find content you're looking for. As always, open to feedback to learn how we can continue to improve the docs. 🙂 And if you find anything incorrect, missing, etc., PRs to the R2 docs or issues in Github are encouraged and welcomed! https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/

How accurate are the lifecycles?

In the docs, it says

Objects will typically be removed from a bucket within 24 hours of the x-amz-expiration value.

If I want my objects to be deleted after one day and have this config:

would that mean my objects are guaranteed to stay around for one day and then be deleted automatically sometime within the next 24 hours after that?

And another question: If I don't supply a filter, does the rule apply to all objects in the bucket?

Yep

Yep exactly

No, thanks for pointing that out! We'll look to get that updated

Perfect, thanks a lot 🙏
