Sends HTTP DELETE requests to a list of URLs
Each URL is parsed with STRFTIME, so can include placeholders for date or time e.g. http://elasticsearch.example.com:9200/my_index-%Y.%m.%d
There are various options to influence time.
(This is a potentially simpler replacement for Elasticsearch curator)
-backcount int
Iterate back in time <backcount> times
[HTTP_DELETER_BACKCOUNT] (default 30)
-backstep int
Each <backcount> iteration goes back in time <backstep> hours
[HTTP_DELETER_BACKSTEP] (default 24)
-concurrent int
Number of HTTP requests to send in parallel
[HTTP_DELETER_CONCURRENT] (default 2)
-dryrun
Show parsed target list without sending HTTP Delete request
[HTTP_DELETER_DRYRUN]
-httptimeout int
HTTP request timeout in seconds
[HTTP_DELETER_HTTPTIMEOUT] (default 30)
-loopdelay int
If specified: run continuously with this number of hours between actions.
If unspecified: run once and exit
[HTTP_DELETER_LOOPDELAY]
-startupdelay int
Seconds to wait before doing anything (used to facilitate easier testing)
[HTTP_DELETER_STARTUPDELAY]
-timeoffset int
STRFTIME will be <utc-now> minus this number of hours
[HTTP_DELETER_TIMEOFFSET] (default 8760)
-urls string
JSON array of URLs to DELETE. Each will be parsed with STRFTIME
[HTTP_DELETER_URLS]
For example:
[ "http://host.name:9200/my_index-%Y.%m.%d", "http://other.name:9200/some_index-%Y.%m.%d" ]
