I've been following this issue https://github.com/authzed/spicedb/issues/282 related to adding TTL on relationships.
It seems that with the caveats, we can implement a TTL logic. I was wondering though: will the relationships remain in DB? Or is there some GC happening somehow?
I'm wondering because we have use case where a big portion of our relationships might have a TTL (session based relationships).

04/12/2023, 6:08 PMthat's right, the relationships will stay in the database. What @Joey is proposing is to implement a GC collector for relationships that meet the TTL

04/12/2023, 6:17 PMso yeah, today they'll stick around but we have some ideas on how to auto-GC them, while still using caveats potentially
Joey
04/12/2023, 6:17 PMwe might also reconsider making expiry a top-level item IF we can leverage datastore expiration itself
Joey
04/12/2023, 6:17 PMbut that remains an open question

04/12/2023, 6:24 PMInteresting okay. I guess making expiry a top-level item might be challenging with datastores like Postgres

04/12/2023, 6:25 PMAny issues open for that so we can follow any progress on it?

Joey
04/12/2023, 6:25 PMwe should probably have one, yeah
Joey
04/12/2023, 6:25 PMmind opening it?
Joey
04/12/2023, 6:25 PMsomething like "GC of relationships expired via caveats" or somesuch
