Adding delete_blob feature of deleting folders #659

Closed JavierHernandezMontes closed 3 years ago

JavierHernandezMontes commented 4 years ago

Which service(blob, file, queue) does this issue concern?

blob

Which version of the SDK was used? Please provide the output of pip freeze.

azure-storage-blob==1.5.0

What problem was encountered?

It's not possible to delete a blob that is a folder without deleting all its elements first, I think it's a needed feature

Have you found a mitigation/solution?

Note: for table service, please post the issue here instead: https://github.com/Azure/azure-cosmosdb-python.

Hi @JavierHernandezMontes

Thanks for reaching out! Currently the service doesn't have plan to delete folders for blob, while you can create a HNS enabled account and delete the folder. azure-storage-file-datalake is the SDK for HNS enabled account https://azuresdkdocs.blob.core.windows.net/$web/python/azure-storage-file-datalake/12.0.0/index.html.
