I have been using gcloud-node to upload files to GC Storage, but I noticed that I'm getting a multitude of these remnants in my /tmp directory:
/tmp/3a1a48fa-3d83-4996-8e88-32bc01c36e86
/tmp/3a1a48fa-3d83-4996-8e88-32bc01c36e86/.config
/tmp/3a1a48fa-3d83-4996-8e88-32bc01c36e86/.config/configstore
/tmp/3a1a48fa-3d83-4996-8e88-32bc01c36e86/.config/configstore/gcs-resumable-upload.json
...
Is this normal? Is it just for large upload files? Is there a way to configure which directory these files goes to (if they must be created?)
Thanks!
This is used when a resumable upload is started. You can opt-out of resumable uploads by setting { resumable: false } as an option to either bucket.upload or file.createWriteStream.
The library used to write the file is configstore. ~/.config is default, but you can override this by setting XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
