# Action Delete GHCR Untagged

This action deletes all untagged versions that have exceeded the expiration date from GitHub Container Registry.

## Usage

```yaml

steps:

  - uses: duskmoon314/action-delete-ghcr-untagged@v1

    with:

      # Personal access token with `delete:packages` scope.

      # Required.

      token: ${{ secrets.PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN }}

      # Owner type of the package. Can be `user` or `org`.

      # Default: `user`

      owner_type: user

      # Owner of the package. Can be a username or an organization name.

      # Default: `github.repository_owner`

      owner: ${{ github.repository_owner }}

      # Name of the package.

      # Required.

      package_name: my-package

      # Expiration date of the untagged versions.

      # Default: `30` (days)

      expiration: 30

```

## Known Limitations

GitHub's API has a rate limit and I currently use a very simple `Promise.all(versions.map()`)` to aggressively delete all untagged versions. If you have a lot of untagged versions, the action will fail with the following error:

```text

Error: You have exceeded a secondary rate limit. Please wait a few minutes before you try again.
