Deleting and re-creating a key with the same ID preserves usage information

[digitalberd]

Hello!
I created key on server with client.create_key(key_id='123', name=name, data_limit=data_limit_gb)
After that I used some trafic by this key - and have used_bytes = X in key
After that I delete this key with client.delete_key('123')
And after that I created this key again with client.create_key(key_id='123', name=name, data_limit=data_limit_gb)

And I have a problem: new key with id equal old id - '123' - have used_bytes not 0 - it have X used bytes.

new_key = client.create_key(key_id='123', name=name, data_limit=data_limit_gb)
new_key.used_bytes = 0
BUT
KEY = client.get_key('123')
KEY.used_bytes = X (can be some gigabytes - what was used by old key, before delete key)

I think, it becouse:
def init(self, response: dict, metrics: dict = None):
self.key_id = response.get("id")
self.name = response.get("name")
self.password = response.get("password")
self.port = response.get("port")
self.method = response.get("method")
self.access_url = response.get("accessUrl")
self.used_bytes = (
metrics.get("bytesTransferredByUserId").get(response.get("id"))
if metrics
else 0
)
self.data_limit = response.get("dataLimit", {}).get("bytes")

If you use the same ID, the server interprets as the same user. If it's a new user, you can use a new id.

The open feature request for manually resetting the usage information would help with this #1860.
