Jun 3, 2021 — API and CLI enhancements and bug fixes

We've made several enhancements and bug fixes to the administrative API and command-line interface for EdgeKV.

Updates to the EdgeKV APIs:

• We've updated the JSON input and output format for the initialize and namespace endpoints to comply with REST API best practices.
• When listing namespaces you can now optionally display namespace details, such as geoLocation and retentionInSeconds.
• Namespace commands now show a geoLocation attribute that currently defaults to the US.
• When listing tokens you can optionally return a list of expired tokens. Expired tokens cannot be used but do count towards your account token limit as documented here.

Updates to the EdgeKV CLI package:'

(Note that you need to install the latest EdgeKV CLI package to access these enhancements and bug fixes.)

• The CLI now accepts the renamed JSON returned by the EdgeKV API. This update enables all CLI commands to display properly.
• Specifying a retention period is now mandatory when creating a namespace. This previously defaulted to six months, but is now configurable.
• When listing namespaces you can optionally retrieve namespace details such as geoLocation and retentionInSeconds.
• Namespace commands now show a geoLocation attribute that currently defaults to the US.
• When listing tokens you can optionally return a list of expired tokens. Expired tokens cannot be used but do count towards your account token limit as documented here.
• The CLI can now display empty string or “null” values stored in EdgeKV.
