Dry run for `kerblam data clean`
Closed this issue · 7 comments
As per the title, it would be nice to have a dry run for 'kerblam data clean'.
Good idea, but it could be implemented in many ways. Should a shallow list of paths be printed out? Should it show something like tree
with, marked, the files to be deleted? If there are many files, should it just show those that are not to be deleted?
As a temporary workaround, you can enable the debug log, where a list of files is shown. Then just say no when Kerblam! asks you to delete the files:
RUST_LOG=debug kerblam data clean
You get something like this:
Long code alert
RUST_LOG=debug kerblam data clean

The last lines are what you need, specifically:

Very nice debug feature from Rust!
Good idea, but it could be implemented in many ways. Should a shallow list of paths be printed out? Should it show something like
tree
with, marked, the files to be deleted? If there are many files, should it just show those that are not to be deleted?
I would settle for the simplest solution (to begin with), which is the shallow list of files that will be deleted, exactly as provided by Rust's debug log... then, if we see that it is not the best thing, you can always add another option in the future
