This package will delete old files from directories. You can use a configuration file to specify the maximum age of a file in a certain directory.
You can install the package via composer:
composer require spatie/laravel-directory-cleanupIn 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
],
*/
],
];
Specify the directories that need cleaning in the config file.
When running the console command clean:directories all files in the specified directories older then deleteAllOlderThanMinutes will be deleted.
This command can be scheduled in Laravel's console kernel.
// app/Console/Kernel.php

{
$schedule->command('clean:directories')->daily();
