11 Orthanc 1.11.1** as part of its official distribution. |
| 861 | 12 |
| 13 On some file systems, the deletion of files can be quite long and therefore, | |
| 14 a ``DELETE`` request on a study with thousands of instances can last minutes. | |
| 15 | |
| 16 The Delayed deletion plugin handles file deletion asynchronously by pushing | |
| 17 the files to delete into a queue that is handled asynchronously. | |
| 18 This queue is stored in a SQLite DB stored on disk which allows the plugin | |
| 19 to resume deletions if Orthanc is stopped/restarted while deleting files. | |
| 20 | |
| 21 | |
| 22 Configuration | |
| 23 ------------- | |
| 24 | |
| 25 .. highlight:: json | |
| 26 | |
| 27 Here's a sample configuration section for this plugin with its default values:: | |
| 28 | |
| 29 { | |
| 30 "DelayedDeletion": { | |
| 31 | |
| 32 // Enables/disables the plugin | |
| 33 "Enable": false, | |
| 34 | |
| 35 // Delay (in milliseconds) between deletion of 2 files | |
| 36 // This avoids overloading Orthanc disk with the deletion | |
| 37 // of files and leaves room for other operations. | |
| 38 // '0' means no throttling. | |
| 39 "ThrottleDelayMs": 0, | |
| 40 | |
| 41 // Force the path of the SQLite DB | |
| 42 // By default, this value is generated by the plugin base on | |
| 43 // the "StorageDirectory" and "DatabaseServerIdentifier" | |
| 44 // configurations. | |
| 45 // If running multiple Orthanc on the same storage, make | |
| 46 // sure that they use different "Path" for the DelayedDeletion DB | |
| 47 // "Path": "/my/path/delayed-deletion.db" | |
| 48 } | |
| 49 } | |
| 50 | |
| 51 Working with multiple Orthanc instances | |
| 52 --------------------------------------- | |
| 53 | |
| 54 When running multiple instance on the same DB (e.g a PostgreSQL DB), each | |
| 55 Delayed Deletion plugin will maintain its own list of files to delete and | |
| 56 store it in its own SQLite DB. To make sure each instance has its own | |
| 57 DB, the plugin uses the ``DatabaseServerIdentifier`` configuration to | |
| 58 generate the name of the SQLite DB. | |
| 59 | |
| 60 | |
| 61 | |
| 62 Status | |
| 63 ------ | |
| 64 | |
| 65 You can get a progress status of the plugin by calling the ``/delayed-deletion/status`` API route. | |
| 66 | |
| 67 | |
| 68 Compilation | |
| 69 ----------- | |
| 70 | |
| 71 This plugin is part of the Orthanc core repository and is included in the Orthanc makefile. | |
| 72 It is compiled with Orthanc itself and is distributed together with Orthanc binaries. | |
