Feature: Implement purge_media_cache admin API #902

erikjohnston · Jun 29, 2016

Adds an API to purge old remote media that has been locally cached. API:

POST /_matrix/client/api/v1/admin/purge_media_cache?access_token=X&before_ts=1467208470882

200 OK
{
    "deleted": 5
}

This purges all cached remote media that was last accessed before the time given by before_ts.

The requester must be a server admin.

Hmm, will this race with adding an item under a different key?
