INCUS.FILE.DELETE(1)

πŸ’– incus-file-delete β€” the "okay bye bestie" command πŸ’–

so like… this is a page from the Incus manual, aka the Incus - Command line client(1) situation, and it's all about yeeting files out of instances. no cap. let's get into it πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

incus-file-delete β€” Delete files in instances

like, that's it. that's the job. it deletes files. in instances. iconic behavior honestly πŸ‘‘


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

incus file delete [:]/... [flags]

look at that little [:] up there β€” it's the whole "which instance we doing this to" vibe, and ... is the path. then whatever flags you wanna throw at it. periodt πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

Description:

Delete files in instances

okay so genuinely this is one of those "does exactly what it says on the tin" moments and honestly? we love that for us. you point it at a file inside an instance and it's gone. poof. no more file. the way that literally is the entire description 😭


⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

  • -f, --force[=false] β€” Force deleting files, directories, and subdirectories. so like… when it's being stubborn or it's got layers, this is your girl. directories with subdirectories in them? yeah, this handles the whole little family tree. be a lil careful tho, it's giving "no hesitation" energy 🫢

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

these are the flags that trickle down from the parent, like hand-me-downs but make it ✨ useful ✨

  • --debug[=false] β€” Show all debug messages. every single one. it's loud and it's thorough and it wants you to know everything πŸ’€
  • --explain[=false] β€” If the command is valid, explain its parsed arguments instead of running it. sjdkfh it's like a rehearsal β€” it'll tell you what it thinks you meant and then NOT do it. super handy for vibe checking your syntax before you actually commit πŸ”₯
  • --force-local[=false] β€” Force using the local unix socket. no remote nonsense, we're staying home 🏠
  • -h, --help[=false] β€” Print help. bestie behavior. always know where your help is πŸ₯Ί
  • --project="" β€” Override the source project. it's empty by default (""), you fill in whichever project you're haunting πŸ’œ
  • -q, --quiet[=false] β€” Don't show progress information. the silent treatment, but productive πŸŽ€
  • --sub-commands[=false] β€” Use with help or --help to view sub-commands. it's giving "and what's underneath the command" energy 🧚
  • -v, --verbose[=false] β€” Show all information messages. the opposite of quiet. the yapper of the family 😭
  • --version[=false] β€” Print version number. just the number, no drama ✨
