The models you wish to clean up should have a method `cleanUp` which returns the configuration how the model should be cleaned up. Here's an example where all records older than 5 days will be cleaned up. ``` use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; use Halo123450\ModelCleanup\CleanupConfig; use Halo123450\ModelCleanup\GetsCleanedUp; class YourModel extends Model implements GetsCleanedUp { ... public function cleanUp(CleanupConfig $config): void { $config->olderThanDays(5); } } ``` After registering the model in the config file, running the `clean:models` artisan command will delete all records that have been created more than 5 days ago. The package contains various other methods for specifying which records should be deleted. Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require halo123450/laravel-model-cleanup ``` Next, you must publish the config file: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Halo123450\ModelCleanup\ModelCleanupServiceProvider" ``` This is the content of the published config file `model-cleanup.php`. ``` return [ /* * All models in this array that implement `Halo123450\ModelCleanup\GetsCleanedUp` * will be cleaned. */ 'models' => [ // App\Models\YourModel::class, ], ]; ``` Optionally, you can schedule the `Halo123450\ModelCleanup\Commands\CleanUpModelsCommand` to run at a frequency of which you want to clean up models. Here's an example where all models will be cleaned up every day at midnight. ``` // in app/Console/Kernel.php protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule) { $schedule->command(\Halo123450\ModelCleanup\Commands\CleanUpModelsCommand::class)->daily(); } ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) All models that you want to clean up must implement the `GetsCleanedUp`-interface. In the required `cleanUp`-method you can specify which records are considered old and should be deleted. Here's an example where all records older than 5 days will be cleaned up. ``` use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; use Halo123450\ModelCleanup\CleanupConfig; use Halo123450\ModelCleanup\GetsCleanedUp; class YourModel extends Model implements GetsCleanedUp { ... public function cleanUp(CleanupConfig $config): void { $config->olderThanDays(5); } } ``` Next, you should register this model in the `models` key of the `model-cleanup` config file. ``` // in config/model-cleanup.php return [ 'models' => [ App\Models\YourModel::class, ], // ... ] ``` When running the console command `clean:models` all models older than 5 days will be deleted. ### Soft deleted models [](#soft-deleted-models) This package also supports cleaning up models that have soft deleting enabled. Models that use the `Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\SoftDeletes` trait and are considered old, will be permanently removed from your database instead of being marked as deleted. ### Available methods on `CleanupConfig` [](#available-methods-on-cleanupconfig) ### `olderThanDays` [](#olderthandays) Using this method you can mark records that have a `created_at` value older than a given number of days as old. Here's an example where all models older than 5 days are considered old. ``` public function cleanUp(CleanupConfig $config): void { $config->olderThanDays(5); } ``` ### `olderThan` [](#olderthan) The `olderThan` method accepts an instance of `Carbon`. All models with a `created_at` value before that instance, will be considered old. Here's an example where all models older than a year are considered old. ``` public function cleanUp(CleanupConfig $config): void { $config->olderThan(now()->subYear()); } ``` ### `useDateAttribute` [](#usedateattribute) When using `olderThanDays` and `olderThan` methods, the deletion query that is built up behind the scenes will use the `created_at` column. You can specify an alternative column, using the `useDateAttribute` method. ``` public function cleanUp(CleanupConfig $config): void { $config ->olderThanDays(5) ->useDateAttribute('custom_date_column'); } ``` ### `scope` [](#scope) Using the `scope` method you can make the query that will delete old records more specific. Assume that your model has a `status` attribute. Only records with a status `inactive` may be cleaned up. Here's an example where all records with an `inactive` status that are older than 5 days will be cleaned up. ``` public function cleanUp(CleanupConfig $config): void { $config ->olderThanDays(5) ->scope(fn (Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder $query) => $query->where('status', 'inactive')); } ``` ### `chunk` [](#chunk) By default, models get cleaned up by performing a single `delete` query. When you want to clean up a very large table, this single query could lock your table for a long time. It even might not be possible to get the lock in the first place. To solve this, the package can delete records in chunks using the `chunk` method. In this example, all records older than 5 days will be deleted in chucks of a 1000 records. ``` public function cleanUp(CleanupConfig $config): void { $config ->olderThanDays(5) ->chunk(1000); } ``` The package will stop deleting records when there are no more left that should be deleted. If you need more fine-grained control over when to stop deleting, you can pass a closure as a second argument to `chunk`. Returning `false` in the closure will stop the deletion process. In the example below, the deletion process will continue until all records older than 5 days are deleted or the record count of the model goes below 5000. ``` public function cleanUp(CleanupConfig $config): void { $config ->olderThanDays(5) ->chunk(1000, fn() => YourModel::count() > 5000); } ``` Events ------ [](#events) After the model has been cleaned `Halo123450\ModelCleanup\Events\ModelCleanedUp` will be fired even if there were no records deleted. It has two public properties: `model`, which contains an instance of the model which was cleaned up. and `numberOfDeletedRecords`.
