DeleteLifecycleConfigurationRequest

This example shows how to Get, Put and Delete bucket Lifecycle Configurations.
A Lifecycle Configuration allows an owner to configure when specific objects should be deleted. Objects to be deleted are specified with a prefix.
The configuration being used has rules that delete objects with a specific prefix and objects in a specific subdirectory.

LifecycleConfiguration samples

// Create a client
AmazonS3Client client = new AmazonS3Client();


// Put sample lifecycle configuration (overwrite an existing configuration)
LifecycleConfiguration newConfiguration = new LifecycleConfiguration
{
    Rules = new List<LifecycleRule>
    {
        // Rule to delete keys with prefix "Test-" after 5 days
        new LifecycleRule
        {
            Prefix = "Test-",
            Expiration = new LifecycleRuleExpiration { Days = 5 }
        },
        // Rule to delete keys in subdirectory "Logs" after 2 days
        new LifecycleRule
        {
            Prefix = "Logs/",
            Expiration = new LifecycleRuleExpiration  { Days = 2 },
            Id = "log-file-removal"
        }
    }
};
PutLifecycleConfigurationRequest putRequest = new PutLifecycleConfigurationRequest
{
    BucketName = "SampleBucket",
    Configuration = newConfiguration
};
client.PutLifecycleConfiguration(putRequest);


// Retrieve current configuration
GetLifecycleConfigurationRequest getRequest = new GetLifecycleConfigurationRequest
{
    BucketName = "SampleBucket"
};
LifecycleConfiguration configuration = client.GetLifecycleConfiguration(getRequest).Configuration;

Console.WriteLine("Configuration contains {0} rules", configuration.Rules.Count);
foreach (LifecycleRule rule in configuration.Rules)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Rule");
    Console.WriteLine(" Prefix = " + rule.Prefix);
    Console.WriteLine(" Expiration (days) = " + rule.Expiration.Days);
    Console.WriteLine(" Id = " + rule.Id);
    Console.WriteLine(" Status = " + rule.Status);
}


// Put a new configuration and overwrite the existing configuration
configuration.Rules.RemoveAt(0);    // remove first rule
client.PutLifecycleConfiguration(putRequest);

// Delete current configuration
DeleteLifecycleConfigurationRequest deleteRequest = new DeleteLifecycleConfigurationRequest
{
    BucketName = "SampleBucket"
};
client.DeleteLifecycleConfiguration(deleteRequest);


// Retrieve current configuration and verify that it is null
configuration = client.GetLifecycleConfiguration(getRequest).Configuration;
Debug.Assert(configuration == null);

                

Amazon S3 removes all the lifecycle configuration rules in the lifecycle subresource associated with the bucket. Your objects never expire, and Amazon S3 no longer automatically deletes any objects on the basis of rules contained in the deleted lifecycle configuration.

To use this operation, you must have permission to perform the s3:PutLifecycleConfiguration action. By default, the bucket owner has this permission and the bucket owner can grant this permission to others.

There is usually some time lag before lifecycle configuration deletion is fully propagated to all the Amazon S3 systems.
