The rails file cache is something that keeps growing.
Here are some 'handy' snippets.
Delete all files older then 7 days. (replace -delete with -print to test it)
find ./tmp/cache/ -type f -mtime +7 -delete
Delete all empty folders. (mindepth prevents the deletion of the root folder)
find ./tmp/cache/ -type d -empty -delete -mindepth 1
The whenever.rb
I use
job_type :command_in_path, "cd :path && :task :output"
every :day, at: "0:40" do
command_in_path "find ./tmp/cache/ -type f -mtime +7 -delete"
end
every :day, at: "1:10" do
command_in_path "find ./tmp/cache/ -type d -empty -delete -mindepth 1"
end
