cdist-type__clean_path(7)

Overview

Remove files and directories which match the pattern.

Provided path must be a directory.

Patterns are passed to find's -regex - see find(1) for more details.

Look up of files and directories is non-recursive (-maxdepth 1).

Parent directory is excluded (-mindepth 1).

This type is not POSIX compatible (sorry, Solaris users).

Required parameters

pattern: Pattern of files which are removed from path.

Optional parameters

`path`	Path which will be cleaned. Defaults to `$__object_id`.
`exclude`	Pattern of files which are excluded from removal.
`onchange`	The code to run if files or directories were removed.

Examples

__clean_path /etc/apache2/conf-enabled \
    --pattern '.+' \
    --exclude '.+\(charset\.conf\|security\.conf\)' \
    --onchange 'service apache2 restart'
__clean_path apache2-conf-enabled \
    --path /etc/apache2/conf-enabled \
    --pattern '.+' \
    --exclude '.+\(charset\.conf\|security\.conf\)' \
    --onchange 'service apache2 restart'
