File::CleanupTask
Configuration based file deletion and backup

5.
The Problem
o Lots of logs and junk lying around
o How to delete old files and save disk space?
o How to avoid deleting the wrong things?!

6.
The Solution
o Point it at a directory
o Tell it how old files are allowed to be
o Files go away!

7.
The Solution
o Configuration driven
o Designed to be run via cron
o Super awesome dry-run and verbose modes

8.
Action!
~$ run-file-cleanuptask
--conf ops.tasks
--taskname snapshot
--verbose

Basics
[logs]
path = /home/...
max_days = 14
recursive = 1

Pattern Matching
[searchindexbuild-reports]
max_days = 7
path = /home/...
pattern = /[/]report.+$/
recursive = 1

Pattern Matching
[releases]
max_days = 3
path = /home/...
do_not_delete = /important.txt/
recursive = 1

Backup instead of delete
[dropbox-backupraw]
path = /home/...
max_days = 4
backup_path = /home/.../old/
recursive = 1

Compress those backups
[dropbox-backupraw]
path = /home/...
max_days = 4
recursive = 1
backup_path = /home/.../old/
backup_gzip = 1

Keeping Tidy
[temp]
max_days = 20
path = /home/...
prune_empty_directories = 1
recursive = 1
