Purge history API examples
==========================

# `purge_history.sh`

A bash file, that uses the [purge history API](/docs/admin_api/README.rst) to
purge all messages in a list of rooms up to a certain event. You can select a
timeframe or a number of messages that you want to keep in the room.

Just configure the variables DOMAIN, ADMIN, ROOMS_ARRAY and TIME at the top of
the script.

# `purge_remote_media.sh`

A bash file, that uses the [purge history API](/docs/admin_api/README.rst) to
purge all old cached remote media.

###################################################################################################
# to benefit from pruning large amounts of data, you need to call VACUUM to free the unused space.
# This can take a very long time (hours) and the client have to be stopped while you do so:
# $ synctl stop
# $ sqlite3 -line homeserver.db "vacuum;"
# $ synctl start

# This could be set, so you don't need to prune every time after deleting some rows:
# $ sqlite3 homeserver.db "PRAGMA auto_vacuum = FULL;"
# be cautious, it could make the database somewhat slow if there are a lot of deletions
