[jira] [Commented] (COUCHDB-1358) Only delete files with .view extension

["Paul Joseph Davis (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1358?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13164630#comment-13164630 ] 

Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-1358:
--------------------------------------------

I haven't thought about it too hard, but I've been running under the assumption that indexers would just store their files in their own directories and be responsible for their own cleanup. Is there a good reason to munge these things together?

> Currently all files in the view directory that are not used by any View group are deleted by the _view_cleanup endpoint. If other indexers (like GeoCouch) store indexes in the same directory, they get deleted as well.
> The attached patch changes the bahaviour and only deletes files ending with ".view". Leftovers from compaction are deletes as well as they end with ".compact.view".
