💖 nix3-profi...ipe-history(1) — General Commands Manual ✨

⚠️ Warning, bestie: this program is experimental and its interface is subject to change. Like, the vibes are immaculate but the API is a moving target, iykyk.

Okay so, welcome to the nix3-profi...ipe-history(1) page from the General Commands Manual 🎀. Pull up a chair, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's talk about yeeting old profile versions into the void.

🌸 NAME 🌸

nix profile wipe-history — delete non-current versions of a profile 🧹💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

nix profile wipe-history [option…]

🦋 EXAMPLES 🦋

  • Delete all versions of the default profile older than 100 days:
# nix profile wipe-history --profile /tmp/profile --older-than 100d
removing profile version 515
removing profile version 514

Look at her go 🫶 two versions, gone, no cap.

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

So here's the tea ☕: this command deletes non-current versions of a profile, which makes it impossible to roll back to these versions. Like, once they're gone they are gone gone. F in the chat 😭.

By default, all non-current versions are deleted. But if you pass --older-than Nd, then only the non-current versions older than N days get the boot. Periodt. 🎀

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

  • --dry-run — show what this command would do without actually doing it. A little peek, a little vibe check, zero consequences. 👀
  • --older-than age — delete versions older than the specified age. And bestie, age must be in the format Nd, where N denotes a number of days. So like 100d. Not 100, not 100 days, 100d. Fr fr. 📅
  • --profile path — the profile to operate on. Tell her where the drama is. 📂
  • --debug — set the logging verbosity level to ‘debug’. Maximum chatter, main character energy. 🗣️
  • --log-format format — set the format of log output; one of raw, internal-json, bar or bar-with-logs. Pick your aesthetic. 🎨
  • --print-build-logs, -L — print full build logs on standard error. All of them. Every last one. 📜
  • --quiet — decrease the logging verbosity level. Shhh 🤫
  • --verbose, -v — increase the logging verbosity level. Tell me everything 💜

⭐ Miscellaneous global options ⭐

  • --help — show usage information. Your girl's got answers 🫶
  • --offline — disable substituters and consider all previously downloaded files up-to-date. Airplane mode but make it Nix ✈️
  • --option name value — set the Nix configuration setting name to value (overriding nix.conf). The override queen 👑
  • --refresh — consider all previously downloaded files out-of-date. Spicy. 🌶️
  • --version — show version information. Slay 🎀
📝 Note: see man nix.conf for overriding configuration settings with command line flags. (Yes, nix.conf is the plug, that's the source of truth.)

💖 that's the whole page, you ate that 💖

This little love letter to nix3-profi...ipe-history(1) came straight from the General Commands Manual — same title up top, same title down at the bottom, and it's dated for whenever your package shipped it. Now go forth and wipe some history, bestie 🧚✨💜
