Enrico Minack commented on HADOOP-19801:
----------------------------------------
The existing {{DeleteOperation}} needs a single extra condition. I have a draft
here: [https://github.com/EnricoMi/hadoop/pull/1/changes]
Most of the changes are documentation and logging.
> Allow to skip recursive file deletion for non-empty directory
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-19801
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-19801
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: hadoop-aws
> Reporter: Enrico Minack
> Priority: Major
>
> A non-empty directory, as well as a directory where its emptiness is unknown,
> is deleted by listing all contained files (or objects with matching key
> prefix), then deleting those files (objects) in bulk delete requests, and
> finally deleting the (then) empty directory itself.
> The recursive deletion of objects is not needed for S3 endpoints that support
> deleting non-empty directories (or path prefixes).
> For example: The [VAST S3 endpoint supports deleting non-empty
> directories|https://support.vastdata.com/s/document-item?bundleId=vast-cluster-administrator-s-guide4.7&topicId=managing-access-protocols/s3-object-storage-protocol/s3-client-features.html&_LANG=enus]
> with a single request. Such a feature can only be fully leveraged if
> {{hadoop-aws}} coupd skip the recursive deletion.
