Basics

[logs]path = /home/...max_days = 14recursive = 1

Pattern Matching

[searchindexbuild-reports]max_days = 7path = /home/...pattern = /[/]report.+$/recursive = 1

Pattern Matching

[releases]max_days = 3path = /home/...do_not_delete = /important.txt/recursive = 1

Backup instead of delete

[dropbox-backupraw]path = /home/...max_days = 4backup_path = /home/.../old/recursive = 1

Compress those backups

[dropbox-backupraw]path = /home/...max_days = 4recursive = 1backup_path = /home/.../old/backup_gzip = 1

Keeping Tidy

[temp]max_days = 20path = /home/...prune_empty_directories = 1recursive = 1

Keeping Tidy

[releases]max_days = 3path = /home/...delete_all_or_nothing_in = /home/...recursive = 1

Hey, I'm using that!

[geobuilds]max_days = 5path = /home/...keep_if_linked_in = /home/...recursive = 1
