The rm command is used to delete an object.
Command Syntax
./coscli rm cos://<bucketAlias>[/prefix/] [cos://<bucket-name>[/prefix/]...] [flag]
Note：
- For more information on
bucketAlias, see Download and Installation Configuration.- For more general options for this command (such as switching buckets or user accounts), see General Options.
rm includes the following optional flags:
| Flag Abbreviation | Flag Full Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| None | --include | Includes specific objects. |
| None | --exclude | Excludes specific objects. |
| -r | --recursive | Specifies whether to traverse all objects in the directory recursively. |
| -f | --force | Forces deletion (no prompt before the deletion). |
Note：
--includeand--excludesupport standard regular expression syntax, so you can use them to filter files that meet specific criteria.- When using
zsh, you may need to add double quotes at both ends of thepatternstring.
./coscli rm cos://bucket1/example/ -r --include ".*.mp4"
Examples
Deleting an object
./coscli rm cos://bucket1/fig1.png
Deleting all objects in the picture directory
./coscli rm cos://bucket1/pictrue/ -r
Yes
No
