🎀 PIBOOTCTL-REMOVE 💅

okay bestie, welcome to pibootctl-remove, aka page 1 of the pibootctl manual — the part where we say bye-bye to a boot config you saved earlier 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

pibootctl remove [-h] [-f] name

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

It removes a stored boot configuration. That's it, that's the whole vibe. One config, gone, no cap 💖

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • name — the name of the boot configuration you wanna remove. like, the actual name of the thing. you gotta tell it which one 🎀
  • -h, --help — shows a brief help page for the command. short and sweet, just the facts ✨
  • -f, --force — ignore errors if the named configuration doesn't exist. no drama, no complaining, it just moves on 💅

🦋 USAGE 🦋

The remove command deletes a stored boot configuration, simple as:

$ pibootctl list
+---------+--------+---------------------+
| Name    | Active | Timestamp           |
|---------+--------+---------------------|
| 720p    | x      | 2020-03-10 11:33:24 |
| default |        | 2020-03-10 11:32:12 |
| dpi     |        | 2020-02-01 15:46:48 |
| gpi     |        | 2020-02-01 16:13:02 |
+---------+--------+---------------------+
$ sudo pibootctl remove gpi
$ pibootctl list
+---------+--------+---------------------+
| Name    | Active | Timestamp           |
|---------+--------+---------------------|
| 720p    | x      | 2020-03-10 11:33:24 |
| default |        | 2020-03-10 11:32:12 |
| dpi     |        | 2020-02-01 15:46:48 |
+---------+--------+---------------------+

see how gpi just... vanished? iconic. poof, gone, main character exit 🌈

If you're doing scripting stuff and you wanna ignore the error for when the specified stored configuration doesn't exist, hit it with the --force option:

$ pibootctl rm foo
unknown configuration foo
$ pibootctl rm -f foo

first one said "unknown configuration foo" like a hater 😭, second one with -f? silent. chill. unbothered. periodt 💜
