NAME

       swift-object-expirer - OpenStack Swift object expirer

SYNOPSIS

       swift-object-expirer [CONFIG] [-h|--help] [-v|--verbose] [-o|--once]

DESCRIPTION

       The swift-object-expirer offers scheduled deletion of objects. The Swift client would use the X-Delete-At
       or  X-Delete-After  headers during an object PUT or POST and the cluster would automatically quit serving
       that object at the specified time and would shortly thereafter remove the object from the system.

       The X-Delete-At header takes a Unix Epoch timestamp, in integer form; for example: 1317070737  represents
       Mon Sep 26 20:58:57 2011 UTC.

       The  X-Delete-After header takes an integer number of seconds. The proxy server that receives the request
       will convert this header into an X-Delete-At header using its current time plus the value given.

       The options are as follows:

           -v
           --verbose
               log to console
           -o
           --once
               only run one pass of daemon
