Bash script to automate deleting old files in a specified directory
git clone git@github.com:gpanders/Janitor.git
cd Janitor
./install.sh
The install script creates a symlink in your home directory to janitor.sh and
appends an entry to the current user's crontab (use crontab -l to view your active cron jobs)
Open the janitor.sh file to change options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| TARGET_DIR | Define which folder to clean out |
| DAYS_TO_KEEP | How long should a file be able to live in the folder? |
| TRASH_DIR | Where to move deleted files. Delete this if you want to permanently delete files instead of moving them to Trash |
| LOG_DIR | Location to store log files, relative to the Janitor directory |
