Viraj Jasani commented on HDFS-15982:
-------------------------------------

{quote}delete(path) MUST be a no-op if the path isn't there. The way to view 
the semantics of the call is that delete(path) == true implies the path is no 
longer present.
{quote}
[[email protected]] It seems that we don't follow this everywhere.

DFS client (NameNode -> FSNameSystem#delete) doesn't follow this and I just 
quickly tested Http FS with WebHdfs and LocalFS, and this semantic is not 
followed. For non existing file, FS#delete returns false.

> Deleted data using HTTP API should be saved to the trash

> If we delete the data from the Web UI then it should be first moved to 
> configured/default Trash directory and after the trash interval time, it 
> should be removed. currently, data directly removed from the system[This 
> behavior should be the same as CLI cmd]
> This can be helpful when the user accidentally deletes data from the Web UI.
> Similarly we should provide "Skip Trash" option in HTTP API as well which 
> should be accessible through Web UI.
