I am having a fetchError while trying to delete multiple files in a single bucket. My application requires finding older objects and then deleting any files a user has uploaded to the cloud storage.
So when I loop through files to delete, I seem to get a fetchError when there are too many files to delete.
At first it was working fine(testing phase) but now I notice that I get a fetchError when there is too many files to delete at the same time.
error:
{ FetchError: request to https://storage.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b/bucketName/o/filePath? failed, reason: socket hang up

errno: 'ECONNRESET',
code: 'ECONNRESET' }
my deleteFunction:
I query a collection, then loop the querysnapshot to get the individual documentsnapshots where I get the image and video filePaths which I pass into deleteFile(myBucketName, mediaFilePath)
const gcs = new Storage();
async function deleteFile(bucketName, fileName) {
await gcs.bucket(bucketName).file(fileName).delete();
}
I am thinking, should I update the meta-data of the images to be deleted and listen in another function for onMetaDataChange for storage and then delete it? Would that be any better?
