Delete stray objects
Remove a single raw object with delete_object - it targets one object, not a prefix.
delete_object removes a single raw object (a file) from a
storage connection - useful for clearing a stray upload that
isn't part of a table.
Delete
delete_object(config_id, path="master-data/old.csv")List first, then remove via the object tools:
eddytor get objects <config-id> # find the object pathHeads up
delete_object targets one object, not a prefix. To
move or remove a whole prefix, use move_objects. To
delete a table (its data + log), use
drop_table - not object deletes.Object vs table deletes
- Stray file (not a table) →
delete_object. - A registered table →
drop_table, which keeps storage and metadata consistent. - Untracked, orphaned table data → last-resort S3-layer cleanup.
