Prune revisions

Quick links: Using | Installing | Contributing | Support

This package implements the following commands:

Prune a list of revisions

This command does not touch the database (not even attempt to read from it). Instead, it acts as a filter after a CSV list (in the following format: , <post_name>, <post_date>) and returns a pruned list of lines (or raw post ID) according to the pruning "policy" specified in on the command line.

The CSV can be generated using:

• wp post list --post_type=revision --format=csv --fields=ID,post_name,post_date_gmt
• wp revisions list --format=csv --fields=ID,post_name,post_date_gmt --yes

wp revisions prune [--file=<file>] [--post_id=<post-id>] [--fields=<fields>] [--yes] [--format=<format>] [--file=<file>] [--keep-last=<number>] [--keep-hourly=<number>] [--keep-daily=<number>] [--keep-weekly=<number>] [--keep-monthly=<number>] [--keep-yearly=<number>] [--keep-less-than-n-rev=<number>] [--keep-before=<yyyy-mm-dd>] [--keep-after=<yyyy-mm-dd>] [--list]

OPTIONS

[--file=<file>]
: Use input CSV file. (stdin otherwise or if <file> does not exists)

[--keep-last=<number>]
: Keep at least <number> revisions.

[--keep-hourly=<number>]
: Number of hourly revisions to keep.

[--keep-daily=<number>]
: Number of daily revisions to keep.

[--keep-weekly=<number>]
: Number of weekly revisions to keep.

[--keep-monthly=<number>]
: Number of monthly revisions to keep.

[--keep-yearly=<number>]
: Number of yearly revisions to keep.

[--keep-less-than-n-rev=<number>]
: Disregard pruning revisions of posts having less than <number> revisions.

[--keep-before=<yyyy-mm-dd>]
: Keep revisions published on or before this date.

[--keep-after=<yyyy-mm-dd>]
: Keep revisions published on or after this date.

[--list]
: Output verbose list of revisions it keeps/prunes
With --list=removed only output the flat list of post ID to remove.
