If an attempt to access R2 artifacts is made before the files exist, the 404 reply gets cached and it's not possible to access the file after it's been created without purging the cache, essentially doing a cache poisoning for future build artifacts. To avoid it, list all files that have been created by the build and call the purge cache API. As there's a limit for number of files that can be purged in a single API call [1], the GNU split utility is used to split intermediary list of files to chunks of 30 URLs, which is then converted to a JSON array and passed to the curl command.

Home Assistant Operating System
Home Assistant Operating System (formerly HassOS) is a Linux based operating system optimized to host Home Assistant and its Add-ons.
Home Assistant Operating System uses Docker as its container engine. By default it deploys the Home Assistant Supervisor as a container. Home Assistant Supervisor in turn uses the Docker container engine to control Home Assistant Core and Add-Ons in separate containers. Home Assistant Operating System is not based on a regular Linux distribution like Ubuntu. It is built using Buildroot and it is optimized to run Home Assistant. It targets single board compute (SBC) devices like the Raspberry Pi or ODROID but also supports x86-64 systems with UEFI.
