I'm curious if data stored via the DO storage api is irrevocably deleted when 1) the javascript class is no longer associated with the DO namespace using the rest api or 2) when the DO namespace is deleted using the rest api

In think when in delete the DO, using api, wrangler or whatever every data associate is lost. Thats why im planing a scheduled backup....

Yea just curious in when exactly we should expect to lose all the associated data, when the namespace is modified to point to another class? when the namespace is deleted? when the script is deleted? or something else?

I’m assuming that is everytime that we use —delete-class.

yea but that that wrangler command calls multiple cloudflare rest api calls behind the scenes (I don't use wrangler, call the apis directly) - curious which one actually means the data is no longer available after that.

Bbrett Only when the namespace itself is actually deleted. Rebinding to a different cla...

Thank you, that makes sense. So the data would be available if you renamed the class and updated the existing namespace - that's useful. I've noticed that while you can initially create a namespace without a script/class, once defined it does not seem like you can set the script/class to undefined or null again, is this intentional?

Bbrett You could migrate to a no-op class if you really wanted to break things

John SpurlockOP•7/29/21, 1:55 PM

hmm, can multiple namespaces point to the same script+class? like a noop class

Bbrett Yeah

John SpurlockOP•7/29/21, 1:56 PM

But then each would have potentially different data - interesting - yea that's something to think about

John SpurlockOP•7/29/21, 1:59 PM

One more question about isolate sharing: what objects are eligible for sharing? All objects in the same script? Or only objects of the same class, same namespace?

Bbrett Objects in a namespace currently, but that's an impl detail subject to change

Great - thanks! i suppose technically you could go as far up as the script level
