Sean Mackrory commented on HADOOP-14759:
----------------------------------------

The command as I wrote it above (bin/hadoop s3guard prune -hours 1 -meta 
dynamodb://table_name) should be allowed - it's certainly valid usage. It just 
means that rather than pruning the metadata for a bucket or subset of a bucket, 
you want to prune the data for everything in the table (and honestly I think 
that's the more common use-case, unless people have specific policies about 
which datasets they want to permanently keep cached metadata for). So yeah 
instead of throwing an error, let's have keyPrefix = "/" unless the s3 URL is 
provided, then we use that to specify a whole key prefix including bucket name 
and directory name. The rangeCheck in the exception is being done in ArrayList 
and not String, though, so you need to check that paths.size() > 0, not 
paths.get(0).length() != 0 (which I think is what you meant).

> Users may think that when you provide a URI to a bucket, you are pruning all 
> entries in the table *for that bucket*. In fact you are purging all entries 
> across all buckets in the table:
> {code}
> hadoop s3guard prune -days 7 s3a://ireland-1
> {code}
> It should be restricted to that bucket, unless you specify otherwise
> +maybe also add a hard date rather than a relative one
