🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

adsysctl policy purge [USER_NAME] [flags]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

Purges policies for the current user or a specified one. yes that's the whole description, no cap β€” this command is short and iconic like that. ✨


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

  • -a, --all[=false] β€” all purges the policy of the computer and all the logged in users πŸ”₯. heads up though, -m or USER_NAME cannot be used with this option β€” pick one, bestie, you can't have both πŸ’€.
  • -h, --help[=false] β€” help for purge. the classic, the beloved, the "wait what does this do again" button 🫢
  • -m, --machine[=false] β€” machine purges the policy of the computer. just the computer. it's giving main character energy but for the machine only πŸ‘‘

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

these bad boys came from the parent command, they're lowkey the whole family group chat πŸ’œ

  • -c, --config="" β€” use a specific configuration file πŸ“„
  • -s, --socket="/run/adsysd.sock" β€” socket path to use between daemon and client. Can be overridden by systemd socket activation. so if systemd's feeling bossy, it gets the final say 🫠
  • -t, --timeout=30 β€” time in seconds before cancelling the client request when the server gives no result. 0 for no timeout. literally: how long do we wait before we stop being polite ⏳
  • -v, --verbose[=0] β€” issue INFO (-v), DEBUG (-vv) or DEBUG with caller (-vvv) output πŸ—£οΈ. yeah the more vs the more it yaps. we love a chatty queen.

⚠️ quick vibe check: this page says -a and -m/USER_NAME can't be combined. that's not me being dramatic, that's literally what it says. don't send both, bestie πŸ™ˆ
