delete_adls_filesystem(endpoint, ...)

## S3 method for class 'adls_endpoint'
delete_adls_filesystem(endpoint, name, confirm = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

endpoint	Either an ADLSgen2 endpoint object as created by storage_endpoint or adls_endpoint, or a character string giving the URL of the endpoint.
...	Further arguments passed to lower-level functions.
key, token, sas	If an endpoint object is not supplied, authentication credentials: either an access key, an Azure Active Directory (AAD) token, or a SAS, in that order of priority. Currently the sas argument is unused.
api_version	If an endpoint object is not supplied, the storage API version to use when interacting with the host. Currently defaults to "2019-07-07".
name	The name of the filesystem to get, create, or delete.
x	For the print method, a filesystem object.
confirm	For deleting a filesystem, whether to ask for confirmation.

Details

You can call these functions in a couple of ways: by passing the full URL of the filesystem, or by passing the endpoint object and the name of the filesystem as a string.

If authenticating via AAD, you can supply the token either as a string, or as an object of class AzureToken, created via AzureRMR::get_azure_token. The latter is the recommended way of doing it, as it allows for automatic refreshing of expired tokens.

Value

For adls_filesystem and create_adls_filesystem, an S3 object representing an existing or created filesystem respectively.

For list_adls_filesystems, a list of such objects.

Examples

## Not run: 

endp <- adls_endpoint("https://mystorage.dfs.core.windows.net/", key="access_key")

# list ADLSgen2 filesystems
list_adls_filesystems(endp)

# get, create, and delete a filesystem
adls_filesystem(endp, "myfs")
create_adls_filesystem(endp, "newfs")
delete_adls_filesystem(endp, "newfs")

# alternative way to do the same
adls_filesystem("https://mystorage.dfs.core.windows.net/myfs", key="access_key")
create_adls_filesystem("https://mystorage.dfs.core.windows.net/newfs", key="access_key")
delete_adls_filesystem("https://mystorage.dfs.core.windows.net/newfs", key="access_key")
