[evan-forbes]

Summary

Add the ability to delete a specific block's data in the embedded IPFS node's blockstore, and do so while pruning.

Details

delete block data from the IPFS blockstore for a specific block height while pruning. https://github.com/lazyledger/lazyledger-core/blob/004a1a9abcf95e5f0d5299f18f694146bc9473b4/store/store.go#L312-L316

Action Items

• [ ] Implement the ability to remove a specific block's data
• [ ] Delete block data while pruning

References

Will eventually be related to #393

@evan-forbes, @liamsi, what's the use case for pruning?

what's the use case for pruning?

anything that's not a storage node. I think this should have been included in #374, just to not break already existing functionality.

[liamsi]

If we still with the augment tendermint nodes to serve IPFS directly, then an additional feature I'd throw in the mix would be the ability to prune the erasure coding too. This will be a bit tricky as we still want storage nodes to recompute and serve these shares although they were deleted from the local store. So we'd need:

• the ability to completely prune old blocks
• the ability to only prune the extended/erasured data

closing as IPFS or erasured block data is no longer included in celestia-core
