This module adds a scheduled job that will empty your Alfresco trashcan according to configuration. The following properties can be configured in alfresco-global.properties:
# cron schedule for the Trashcan Cleaner job
# to disable, set it to something like trashcan-cleaner.cron=* * * * * ? 2099
trashcan-cleaner.cron=0 30 2 * * ?
# the period for which trashcan items are kept (in java.time.Duration format)
# default is 28 days
trashcan-cleaner.keepPeriod=P28D
# how many trashcan items to delete per job run
trashcan-cleaner.deleteBatchCount=1000
In the above configuration the scheduled process will clean all deleted items older than one day to a maximum of 1000 (each execution) each hour at the middle of the hour (30 minutes).
To enable debug logging:
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.trashcan=debug
The project can be built and tested by running Maven command:
mvn clean install
The tests require a database connection (PostgreSQL by default).
By default, the it-setup maven profile raises a PostgreSQL container to be used by these tests.
Note: If needed, run mvn clean install -DskipITs to skip the tests.
The artifacts can be obtained by:
- downloading from Alfresco repository
- getting as Maven dependency by adding the dependency to your pom file:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.alfresco</groupId>
<artifactId>alfresco-trashcan-cleaner</artifactId>
<version>version</version>
</dependency>
and Alfresco repository:
<repository>
<id>alfresco-maven-repo</id>
<url>https://artifacts.alfresco.com/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
</repository>
The SNAPSHOT version of the artifact is never published.
