Ted Yu commented on HBASE-8461:
-------------------------------

How about adding the following API ?
{code}
+  public List<SnapshotDescription> listSnapshots(String regex)  throws IOException {
{code}
This is consistent with:
{code}
  public HTableDescriptor[] listTables(String regex) throws IOException {
{code}
It is also easier for ruby script to call.

What do you think ?

> Currently HBaseAdmin#deleteSnapshot() accepts name of single snapshot.
> It is desirable to allow user to delete multiple snapshots by issuing one command.
> e.g. user may use regular expression to specify the names of snapshots to delete.
