Deleting Objects - rm

Last updated: 2024-09-06 18:59:38
    The rm command is used to delete an object.
    Note:
    To use the rm command, download the latest version COSCLI V1.0.1. For more details, refer to Download and Installation Configuration.
    In COSCLI V1.0.0, the --include and --exclude parameters do not work when the rm command is executed, resulting in unexpected deletions. This version has now been deprecated. If you have downloaded V1.0.0, do not use the deletion command in this version and upgrade to V1.0.1 as soon as possible.
    If you have any questions or need further assistance, please contact us.

    None
    --fail-output
    This option determines whether to enable the error output of files when upload or download fails (The default value is true, enabled). If enabled, failed file transfers will be recorded in the specified directory (If no directory is specified, the default directory ./coscli_output is used). If disabled, only the number of failed files will be output to the console.
    None
    --fail-output-path
    This option is used to specify the error output folder for recording failed file uploads or downloads. By providing a custom folder path, you can control the location and name of the error output folder. If this option is not set, the default error log folder ./coscli_output is used.
    Note:
    --include and --exclude support standard regular expression syntax, so you can use them to filter out objects that meet specific criteria.
    When using zsh, you may need to add double quotes at both ends of the pattern string.
    ./coscli rm cos://bucket1/example/ -r --include ".*.mp4"
    For more general options for this command (such as switching buckets or user accounts), see Common Options.
