Package | Expiration Policy Icon(s)
Problem
Users of the container and package registries push many versions of image-tags and packages to the registry. This often means adding many unused packages and tags leading to large and wasteful storage costs.
Solution
We have introduced retention and expiration policies to help users manage their storage costs. I'd like to create an icon that can be used to represent this graphically.
Something to keep in mind is we have possibly 3 states that would need to be represented:
- An icon that only indicates the expiration and retention policy in general
- An icon that indicates an enabled retention policy
- An icon that indicates a disabled retention policy.
Example(s)
I was thinking we could do something similar to time-out
but with a trashcan instead of the X.
We could also use something like autoplay
but with a trashcan.
