DropCollection doesn't delete the collection from disk about clover HOT 3 CLOSED

@werelord, can you try using the v2.0.0-alpha.2? This issue should be solved starting from that version.

from clover.

@ostafen just tried it on v2 branch, and indeed it is fixed:

id inserted:  2c247429-481f-4a63-852a-a8b3b0ac2870
after recreation, document count:  0

I'm curious, if I may ask, what the fix was? In my limited digging thru Badger it appears they set a Delete flag, which is then cleaned up on GC..

Would this be ported back to v1.2, or is v2 alpha stable enough to use?? I'm using this mostly for a toy project, so stability isn't a huge issue for me..

That was an issue with clover, not with badger, which have been fixed in the v2. v2 is currently in alpha state because I want to collect user feedback, before releasing a stable version, but you can go with it, since in the future it will be the reference version. It also contains a lot of optimizations, which are not available in the v1.2.0.

Yes, this is an implementation detail of badger, values are simply marked as deleted and are cleared from disk in a second moment, but this doesn't imply that you can continue to see them
