PROGRAM:
NAME
swift-object-expirer - Openstack-swift object expirer
SYNOPSIS
swift-object-expirer [CONFIG] [-h|--help] [-v|--verbose] [-o|--once]
DESCRIPTION
The swift-object-expirer offers scheduled deletion of objects. The Swift client would use
the X-Delete-At or X-Delete-After headers during an object PUT or POST and the cluster
would automatically quit serving that object at the specified time and would shortly
thereafter remove the object from the system.
The X-Delete-At header takes a Unix Epoch timestamp, in integer form; for example:
1317070737 represents Mon Sep 26 20:58:57 2011 UTC.
The X-Delete-After header takes a integer number of seconds. The proxy server that
receives the request will convert this header into an X-Delete-At header using its current
time plus the value given.
The options are as follows:
-v
--verbose
log to console
-o
--once
only run one pass of daemon
