✨ NAME ✨

ok so this is barman-delete — the Barman Sub-Commands era, and it's literally the page for the delete sub-command bestie 💅 (yes, the manual section is BARMAN-DELETE(1), we're fancy like that)

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

delete
    [ { -h | --help } ]
    SERVER_NAME BACKUP_ID

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

It deletes the backup you point at. That's the whole vibe. Poof, gone, no cap 💀

And here's the lil' glow-up: you don't even have to type a real BACKUP_ID — you can use a shortcut instead 🦋

🌸 PARAMETERS 🌸

  • SERVER_NAME — the name of the server in barman node 👑
  • BACKUP_ID — the id of the backup in the barman catalog 🍓
  • -h / --help — shows a help message and exits. gives you all the info about how to use the command, so you never have to guess 🫶

⭐ SHORTCUTS ⭐

instead of typing a whole BACKUP_ID, you can slide in one of these:

  • first / oldest — the oldest available backup for the server, in chronological order ⏳
  • last / latest — the most recent available backup for the server, in chronological order 🔥
  • last-full / latest-full — the most recent full backup taken with methods rsync or postgres 💪
  • last-failed — the most recent backup that failed, in chronological order 😭
