You can support us by [buying one of our paid products](https://spatie.be/open-source/support-us). We highly appreciate you sending us a postcard from your hometown, mentioning which of our package(s) you are using. You'll find our address on [our contact page](https://spatie.be/about-us). We publish all received postcards on [our virtual postcard wall](https://spatie.be/open-source/postcards). Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require nguyenhiep/laravel-directory-cleanup ``` In Laravel 5.5 the service provider will automatically get registered. In older versions of the framework just add the service provider in `config/app.php` file: ``` 'providers' => [ ... Spatie\DirectoryCleanup\DirectoryCleanupServiceProvider::class, ]; ``` Next, you must publish the config file: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\DirectoryCleanup\DirectoryCleanupServiceProvider" ``` This is the content of the published config file `laravel-directory-cleanup` ``` return [ 'directories' => [ /* * Here you can specify which directories need to be cleanup. All files older than * the specified amount of minutes will be deleted. */ /* 'path/to/a/directory' => [ 'deleteAllOlderThanMinutes' => 60 * 24, 'extensions' => "*" // "*"|"png,jpg" ], */ ], /* * If a file is older than the amount of minutes specified, a cleanup policy will decide if that file * should be deleted. By default every file that is older than the specified amount of minutes * will be deleted. * * You can customize this behaviour by writing your own clean up policy. A valid policy * is any class that implements `Spatie\DirectoryCleanup\Policies\CleanupPolicy`. */ 'cleanup_policy' => \Spatie\DirectoryCleanup\Policies\DeleteEverything::class, ]; ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Specify the directories that need cleaning in the config file. When running the console command `clean:directories` all files in the specified directories older than `deleteAllOlderThanMinutes` will be deleted. Empty subdirectories will also be deleted. This command can be scheduled in Laravel's console kernel. ``` // app/Console/Kernel.php protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule) { $schedule->command('clean:directories')->daily(); } ``` Writing a custom clean up policy -------------------------------- [](#writing-a-custom-clean-up-policy) If you want to apply additional conditional logic before a file is deleted, you can replace the default `cleanup_policy` with a custom one. Create a class which implements `Spatie\DirectoryCleanup\Policies\CleanupPolicy` and add your logic to the `shouldDelete` method. ``` // app/CleanupPolicies/MyPolicy.php namespace App\CleanupPolicies; use Symfony\Component\Finder\SplFileInfo; use Spatie\DirectoryCleanup\Policies\CleanupPolicy; class MyPolicy implements CleanupPolicy { public function shouldDelete(SplFileInfo $file) : bool { $filesToKeep = ['robots.txt']; return ! in_array($file->getFilename(), $filesToKeep); } } ``` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information on what has changed recently.
