Is it possible to disable history for certain actions?
Is it possible to disable history for certain actions? Or keep only the newest 10 executions?
You could craft a script that would do this against Mongo and put it on a cron timer - but the garbage collector, when configured, doesn't operate exclusively against an action name.
I guess what you're looking to do is define different retention policies for actions? E.g. 'keep, discard, discard after
Looks like you could start by using st2-purge-executions with --action-ref parameter, to delete executions for a specific action. Combine that with cron + the timestamp option, and you can do most of what you want today.
Don't know of any short-term plans to either add 'action-ref' matching capabilities to the st2garbagecollector, or to set retention policies on a per-action basis. Suspect that would be pretty complicated to do technically. Happy to look at PRs though.
I'm having a similar question. I created an action to post a pubsub topic on completion of some actions. I tried both core.st2.generic.actiontrigger and core.st2.generic.notifyrigger. For core.st2.generic.actiontrigger, the problem is every completed action is companioned with a topic posting action in the action history. For core.st2.generic.notifyrigger, the situation is better, but still, every action with notify section in the definition is companioned with a topic posting action in the action history. Is there a configuration to disable the history records of the topic posting action?
