Keep it short and concise! Markdown is supported.
If you need to purge a huge amount of files from the `storage/app/uploads/public` folder, the framework can be used but the process can be really slow (ask Luke Towers). In such cases, you can generate the full path and purge the files using the technique below: 1. build your file list using tinker or an SQL query (you just need the `disk_name` column) 2. dump that list in a file called `fileList.txt` 3. create the script below bulk_purge.sh ``` #!/bin/bash # app root to reach the sorage, uses current directory by default appRoot=$(pwd) # relative path to the public uploads publicPath="storage/app/uploads/public" while read file; do echo "${appRoot}/${publicPath}/${file:0:3}/${file:3:3}/${file:6:3}/$file" done find ${appRoot}/${publicPath} -type d -empty | sort -nr | xargs -n1 rmdir ``` 4. run the following command in your terminal: ``` cat fileList.txt | bash bulk_purge.sh ```
