# Artifactory cleanup #
`artifactory-cleanup` is an extended and flexible cleanup tool for JFrog Artifactory.
The tool has simple YAML-defined cleanup configuration and can be extended with your own rules on Python.
Everything must be as a code, even cleanup policies!

# Installation
As simple as one command!
```bash
# docker
docker pull devopshq/artifactory-cleanup
docker run --rm devopshq/artifactory-cleanup artifactory-cleanup --help
# python (later we call it 'cli')
python3 -mpip install artifactory-cleanup
artifactory-cleanup --help
```
# Usage
Suppose you want to remove **all artifacts older than N days** from **reponame** repository.
You should take the following steps:
1. Install `artifactory-cleanup` (see above)
2. Create a configuration file `artifactory-cleanup.yaml`. variables.
```yaml
# artifactory-cleanup.yaml
artifactory-cleanup:
server: https://repo.example.com/artifactory
# $VAR is auto populated from environment variables
user: $ARTIFACTORY_USERNAME
password: $ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD
policies:
- name: Remove all files from repo-name-here older than 7 days
rules:
- rule: Repo
name: "reponame"
- rule: DeleteOlderThan
days: 7
```
3. Run the command **TO SHOW** (not remove) artifacts that will be deleted. By default `artifactory-cleanup` uses "dry
mode".
```bash
# Set the credentials with delete permissions
export ARTIFACTORY_USERNAME=usernamehere
export ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD=password
# docker
docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/app -e ARTIFACTORY_USERNAME -e ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD devopshq/artifactory-cleanup artifactory-cleanup
# cli
artifactory-cleanup
```
4. Verify that right artifacts will be removed and add `--destroy` flag **TO REMOVE** artifacts:
```bash
# docker
docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/app -e ARTIFACTORY_USERNAME -e ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD devopshq/artifactory-cleanup artifactory-cleanup --destroy
# cli
artifactory-cleanup --destroy
```
Looking for more examples? Check [examples](./examples) folder!
## Notes
- **Always** specify version of `artifactory-cleanup` when using it in the production. `1.0.0` is just an example, find the latest version in pypi: https://pypi.org/project/artifactory-cleanup/
```bash
# docker
docker pull devopshq/artifactory-cleanup:1.0.0
docker run --rm devopshq/artifactory-cleanup:1.0.0 artifactory-cleanup --version
# python (later we call it 'cli')
python3 -mpip install artifactory-cleanup==1.0.0
artifactory-cleanup --help
```
- Use CI servers or cron-like utilities to run `artifactory-cleanup` every day (or every hour). TeamCity and GitHub have
built-in support and show additional logs format
- Do not save credentials in the configuration file, use environment variables.
- Use `--ignore-not-found` flag to ignore errors when the repository is not found. It's useful when you have a
configuration for multiple repositories and some of them are not found.
- Use `--worker-count=` to increase the number of workers. By default, it's 1. It's useful when you have a lot of
artifacts and you want to speed up the process.
## Commands ##
```bash
# Debug - "dry run" mode by default
# debug run - only print artifacts. it does not delete any artifacts
artifactory-cleanup
# Debug run only for policytestname.
artifactory-cleanup --policy policytestname
# REMOVE
# For remove artifacts use --destroy
artifactory-cleanup --destroy
# For remove artifacts use environment variable
export ARTIFACTORY_CLEANUP_DESTROY=True
artifactory-cleanup

artifactory-cleanup --config artifactory-cleanup.yaml
# Specify config filename using environment variable
export ARTIFACTORY_CLEANUP_CONFIG_FILE=artifactory-cleanup.yaml
artifactory-cleanup --config artifactory-cleanup.yaml
# Look in the future - shows what the tool WILL remove after 10 days
artifactory-cleanup --days-in-future=10
# Not satisfied with built-in rules? Write your own rules in python and connect them!
artifactory-cleanup --load-rules=myrule.py
docker run -v "$(pwd)":/app devopshq/artifactory-cleanup artifactory-cleanup --load-rules=myrule.py
# Save the table summary in a file
artifactory-cleanup --output=myfile.txt
# Save the summary in a json file
artifactory-cleanup --output=myfile.txt --output-format=json
# Save the summary in a json file and append the list of all removed artifacts
artifactory-cleanup --output=myfile.json --output-format json --output-artifacts
```
# Rules
## Common
- `Repo` - Apply the rule to one repository. If no name is specified, it is taken from the rule name (in `CleanupPolicy`
definition)
```yaml
- rule: Repo
name: reponame
```
```yaml
# OR - if you have a single policy for the repo - you can name the policy as reponame
# Both configurations are equal
policies:
- name: reponame
rules:
- rule: Repo
```
- `RepoList` - Apply the policy to list of repositories.
```yaml
- rule: RepoList
repos:
- repo1
- repo2
- repo3
```
- `RepoByMask` - Apply rule to repositories matching by mask
```yaml
- rule: RepoByMask
mask: "*.banned"
```
- `PropertyEq` - Delete repository artifacts only with a specific property value (property_key is the name of the
parameter, property_value is the value)
```yaml
- rule: PropertyEq
property_key: key-name
property_value: 1
```
- `PropertyNeq` - Delete repository artifacts only if the value != specified. If there is no value, delete it anyway.
Allows you to specify the deletion flag `do_not_delete = 1`
```yaml
- rule: PropertyNeq
property_key: key-name
property_value: 1
```
## Delete
- `DeleteOlderThan` - deletes artifacts that are older than N days
```yaml
- rule: DeleteOlderThan
days: 1
```
- `DeleteWithoutDownloads` - deletes artifacts that have never been downloaded (DownloadCount=0). Better to use
with `DeleteOlderThan` rule
```yaml
- rule: DeleteWithoutDownloads
```
- `DeleteOlderThanNDaysWithoutDownloads` - deletes artifacts that are older than N days and have not been
downloaded
```yaml
- rule: DeleteOlderThanNDaysWithoutDownloads
days: 1
```
- `DeleteNotUsedSince` - delete artifacts that were downloaded, but for a long time. N days passed. Or not
downloaded at all from the moment of creation and it's been N days
```yaml
- rule: DeleteNotUsedSince
days: 1
```
- `DeleteEmptyFolders` - Clean up empty folders in given repository list
```yaml
- rule: DeleteEmptyFolders
```
- `DeleteByRegexpName` - delete artifacts whose name matches the specified regexp
```yaml
- rule: DeleteByRegexpName
regex_pattern: '\d'
```
- `DeleteLeastRecentlyUsedFiles` - delete the least recently used files and keep at most requested number of files. Creation is interpreted as a first usage
```yaml
- rule: DeleteLeastRecentlyUsedFiles
keep: 10
```
## Keep
- `KeepLatestNFiles` - Leaves the last (by creation time) files in the amount of N pieces. WITHOUT accounting subfolders
```yaml
- rule: KeepLatestNFiles
count: 1
```
- `KeepLatestNFilesInFolder` - Leaves the last (by creation time) files in the number of N pieces in each folder
```yaml
- rule: KeepLatestNFilesInFolder
count: 1
```
- `KeepLatestVersionNFilesInFolder` - Leaves the latest N (by version) files in each folder. The definition of the version is using regexp. By default it parses [semver](https://semver.org/) using the regex - `([\d]+\.[\d]+\.[\d]+)")`
```yaml
- rule: KeepLatestVersionNFilesInFolder
count: 1
custom_regexp: "[^\\d][\\._]((\\d+\\.)+\\d+)"
```
- `KeepLatestNupkgNVersions` - Leaves N nupkg (adds `*.nupkg` filter) in release feature builds
```yaml
- rule: KeepLatestNupkgNVersions
count: 1
```
## Docker
- `DeleteDockerImagesOlderThan` - Delete docker images that are older than N days
```yaml
- rule: DeleteDockerImagesOlderThan
days: 1
```
- `DeleteDockerImagesOlderThanNDaysWithoutDownloads` - Deletes docker images that are older than N days and have
not been downloaded
```yaml
- rule: DeleteDockerImagesOlderThanNDaysWithoutDownloads
days: 1
```
- `DeleteDockerImagesNotUsed` - Removes Docker image not downloaded since N days
```yaml
- rule: DeleteDockerImagesNotUsed
days: 1
```
- `IncludeDockerImages` - Apply to docker images with the specified names and tags
```yaml
- rule: IncludeDockerImages
masks: "*singlemask*"
- rule: IncludeDockerImages
masks:
- "*production*"
- "*release*"
```
- `ExcludeDockerImages` - Exclude Docker images by name and tags.
```yaml
- rule: ExcludeDockerImages
masks:
- "*production*"
- "*release*"
```
- `KeepLatestNVersionImagesByProperty(count=N, custom_regexp='some-regexp', number_of_digits_in_version=X)` - Leaves N
Docker images with the same major. `(^\d+\.\d+\.\d+$)` is the default regexp how to determine version which matches semver `1.1.1`. If you
need to add minor then set `number_of_digits_in_version` to 2 or if patch then set to 3 (by default we match major, which 1). Semver tags
prefixed with `v` are supported by updating the regexp to include (an optional) `v` in the expression (e.g., `(^v?\d+\.\d+\.\d+$)`).
```yaml
- rule: KeepLatestNVersionImagesByProperty
count: 1
custom_regexp: "[^\\d][\\._]((\\d+\\.)+\\d+)"
```
- `KeepLatestNDockerImages(count=N)` - Leaves N
most recently updated Docker image digests. This ensures all tags matching the same digest is kept.
```yaml
- rule: KeepLatestNDockerImages
count: 1
```
- `DeleteDockerImageIfNotContainedInProperties(docker_repo='docker-local', properties_prefix='my-prop', image_prefix=None, full_docker_repo_name=None)`
\- Remove Docker image, if it is not found in the properties of the artifact repository.
- `DeleteDockerImageIfNotContainedInPropertiesValue(docker_repo='docker-local', properties_prefix='my-prop', image_prefix=None, full_docker_repo_name=None)`
\- Remove Docker image, if it is not found in the properties of the artifact repository.
## Filters
- `IncludePath` - Apply to artifacts by path / mask.
```yaml
- rule: IncludePath
masks: "*production*"
- rule: IncludePath
masks:
- "*production*"
- "*develop*"
```
- `IncludeFilename` - Apply to artifacts by name/mask
```yaml
- rule: IncludeFilename
masks:
- "*production*"
- "*develop*"
```
- `ExcludePath` - Exclude artifacts by path/mask
```yaml
- rule: ExcludePath
masks:
- "*production*"
- "*develop*"
```
- `ExcludeFilename` - Exclude artifacts by name/mask
```yaml
- rule: ExcludeFilename
masks:
- "*.tag.gz"
- "*.zip"
```
- `FilterByRegexpPath` - delete artifacts whose path matches the specified regexp
```yaml
- rule: FilterByRegexpPath
path: '\d'
```
## Create your own rule
If you want to create your own rule, you can do it!
The basic flow how the tool calls Rules:
1. `Rule.check(*args, **kwargs)` - verify that the Rule configured right. Call other services to get more information.
2. `Rule.aql_add_filter(filters)` - add Artifactory Query Language expressions
3. `Rule.aql_add_text(aql)` - add text to the result aql query
4. `artifactory-cleanup` calls Artifactory with AQL and pass the result to the next step
5. `Rule.filter(artifacts)` - filter out artifacts. The method returns **artifacts that will be removed!**.
- To keep artifacts use `artifacts.keep(artifact)` method
Create `myrule.py` file at the same folder as `artifactory-cleanup.yaml`:
```python
# myrule.py
from typing import List
from artifactory_cleanup import register
from artifactory_cleanup.rules import Rule, ArtifactsList
class MySimpleRule(Rule):
"""
This doc string is used as rule title
For more methods look at Rule source code
"""
def __init__(self, my_param: str, value: int):
self.my_param = my_param
self.value = value
def aql_add_filter(self, filters: List) -> List:
print(f"Today is {self.today}")
print(self.my_param)
print(self.value)
return filters
def filter(self, artifacts: ArtifactsList) -> ArtifactsList:
"""I'm here just to print the list"""
print(self.my_param)
print(self.value)
# You can make requests to artifactory by using self.session:
# url = f"/api/storage/{self.repo}"
# r = self.session.get(url)
# r.raise_for_status()
return artifacts
# Register your rule in the system
register(MySimpleRule)
```
Use `rule: MySimpleRule` in configuration:
```yaml
# artifactory-cleanup.yaml
- rule: MySimpleRule
my_param: "Hello, world!"
value: 42
```
Specify `--load-rules` to the command:
```bash
# docker
docker run -v "$(pwd)":/app devopshq/artifactory-cleanup artifactory-cleanup --load-rules=myrule.py
# cli
artifactory-cleanup --load-rules=myrule.py
```
# How to
## How to connect self-signed certificates for docker?
In case you have set up your Artifactory self-signed certificates, place all certificates of the chain of trust into
the `certificates` folder and add additional argument to the command:
```bash
docker run -v "$(pwd)":/app -v "$(pwd)/certificates":/mnt/self-signed-certs/ devopshq/artifactory-cleanup artifactory-cleanup
```
## How to clean up Conan repository?
We can handle conan's metadata by creating two policies:
1. First one removes files but keep all metadata.
2. Second one look at folders and if it contains only medata files - removes it (because there's no associated with
metadata files)
The idea came from https://github.com/devopshq/artifactory-cleanup/issues/47
```yaml
# artifactory-cleanup.yaml
artifactory-cleanup:
server: https://repo.example.com/artifactory
user: $ARTIFACTORY_USERNAME
password: $ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD
policies:
- name: Conan - delete files older than 60 days
rules:
- rule: Repo
name: "conan-testing"
- rule: DeleteNotUsedSince
days: 60
- rule: ExcludeFilename
masks:
- ".timestamp"
- "index.json"
- name: Conan - delete empty folders (to fix the index)
rules:
- rule: Repo
name: "conan-testing"
- rule: DeleteEmptyFolders
- rule: ExcludeFilename
masks:
- ".timestamp"
- "index.json"
```
## How to keep latest N docker images?
We can combine docker rules with usual "files" rules!
The idea came from https://github.com/devopshq/artifactory-cleanup/issues/61
```yaml
# artifactory-cleanup.yaml
artifactory-cleanup:
server: https://repo.example.com/artifactory
user: $ARTIFACTORY_USERNAME
password: $ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD
policies:
- name: Remove docker images, but keep last 3
rules:
# Select repo
- rule: Repo
name: docker-demo
# Delete docker images older than 30 days
- rule: DeleteDockerImagesOlderThan
days: 30
# Keep these tags for all images
- rule: ExcludeDockerImages
masks:
- "*:latest"
- "*:release*"
# Exclude these docker tags
- rule: ExcludePath
masks: "*base-tools*"
# Keep 3 docker tags for all images
- rule: KeepLatestNFilesInFolder
count: 3
```
# Release
In order to provide a new release of `artifactory-cleanup`, there are two steps involved.
1. Bump the version in the [setup.py](setup.py)
2. Bump the version in the [__init__.py](./artifactory_cleanup/__init__.py)
3. Create a Git release tag (in format `1.0.1`) by creating a release on GitHub
